  1. @laurenmkirkland Thanks Lauren! I really appreciated your time and thoughts!
  2. @BureauOfTrade Also suitable for the band American Head Charge. How else to swing pig heads from a stage? cc: @AHC_Official get in on it!
  3. the line at the tortilleria has become untenable. #tacoloversproblems
  4. @kennysmith I also like to make inductive arguments, which are much harder to summarize/essentialize than deductive ones.
  5. @kennysmith I respectfully disagree, good sir! It would break my heart to lose subtlety just because we live in a distracted age.
  6. @kennysmith Gd point. But what if an idea doesn't fit in 140chars? Not all do. If they're gonna be truncated, I wanna do the truncating.
  7. @harrisj Ok, that's weird, you JUST walked by on 4. Now who's playing mind games with whom?
  8. If you must know, @harrisj, I asked @nytfridge to send it out on my behalf the moment you walked by. Crazy simple, huh? (Thanks, Fridge!)
  9. @mary_carmichael @genomicslawyer The non-mac tool? Have your friends tweet for you. Friends are platform-neutral.
  10. @criener Awesome, thank you! I'm giving it again in a few weeks, and am eager for improving feedback!
  11. @criener Would love your longer-than-a-tweet critiques, and concrete suggestions for improvement. Esp via #1, email at amyoleary@gmail.com?
  12. @BoraZ @mistersugar I considered all these horrifying options. Thank goodness for my friends!
  13. @BoraZ @mistersugar YES! So many risky options. The threat of entropy loomed over all!
  14. @chrisboutet Yeah, it would be awesome if Keynote/Powerpoint had this feature built-in. cc: @twitter
  15. RT @NiemanLab: Crazy mind control? How @amyoleary live-tweeted her own speech and won the #backchannel nie.mn/K8KPMu
