  1. @jackmac Haven't tried Node.js but am starting to like the idea of simple HTML and JS on the client side. Might want to look at KnockoutJS
  2. @jackmac Sweet! Still doing .NET though? Or are you breaking away?
  3. @jackmac That is unfortunate because I was actually thinking of buying it. I really liked Portal.
  4. @nashvillcyclist @bikehugger Regardless of your thoughts on link baiting can anyone actually prove the data to be incorrect or untrue?
  5. @nashvillcyclist @bikehugger Well that is unfortunate I found it on Andrew Sullivan's blog and I am surprised he missed this.
  6. @nashvillcyclist Great infographic about biking and health healthcaremanagementdegree.com/biking-and-hea…
  7. @jackmac You won't regret it. I can't believe I lived this long without it.
  8. @nashvillcyclist Still want an invitation to Google+? If so IM me your email.
  9. @onethingwell Pyrcast for Mac is a great Pandora music player that does this one thing quite well. Check it out, itunes.apple.com/us/app/pyrcast… #1TW
  10. Apple just approved my first Mac App Store App! itunes.apple.com/us/app/pyrcast…
  11. @bralston Seems a little premature to celebrate given the information at this point :)
  12. Hosting my simple jQuery state machine plugin on github now http://bit.ly/akapzG #jquery #javascript
  13. Just updated Jetty7 to 7.2.0v20101020 for my Eclipse Jetty plugin http://bit.ly/a4FZvU #jetty #eclipse #java
  14. @nashvillcyclist If you could help spread word of the Belmont Bike Lane Awareness Campaign it would be appreciated http://bit.ly/c7mFeo
  15. @atmo_framework I would't call it a "project" quite yet, more like a skeleton, but hopefully it will be soon #atmosphere #jersey
  16. @bbum I reverse engineered the Pandora API but am scared to release the code. Would allow someone to create a native OSX client though.
  17. @weheartgames Yeah it worked for me too, I am just annoyed because it looks like we are seeing the whole "embrace and extend" model again.
  18. @weheartgames I thought we were past the whole "this site recommends IE". Try the comic strip in Safari or Firefox http://bit.ly/9cTEdP #boo
  19. @nashvillcyclist Absolutely, but you would need to stick to colors such as red, black and white :) Not really, but light blue could change.
