  1. @sepinwall Obviously Fonzie's "Ayyy" and Arnold's "Whatchoo talkin bout Willis?" were written with the ARPANET audience in mind.
  2. Awesome! RT @AgeOfPersuasion: Very interesting idea that got 25% of a country to watch a mini-series by Spielberg http://bit.ly/ad0suD
  3. @mmbc Have we started renaming committees as "villages?" Then again, I spend enough time in meetings, might as well set up a residence...
  4. LeBron James is going to make an awesome PR case study some day.
  5. @davefleet Obvious answer, but it depends on how you use it. If there's no engagement then it's not really social.
  6. @DoctorJones Best iPad case is the Marware Eco-Vue. Decent fit and padding, plus it has the elastic on the front for moleskine posing.
  7. @Lockstep On the other hand, don't you think everyone in Cleveland loves their owner this morning?
  8. Dear Apple: The jerks at the Jerk Store...err, Apple Store, sold my iPad. You know, the one the manager was holding? Cupertino will burn!!
  9. @rachelreuben Cool, I just ordered my Pogo this afternoon. Will have to check out Note Taker. I was considering WritePad.
  10. @mitchjoel Not as soon as the "Retweet this to win an iPhone 4G" tweetspam begins.
  11. @rachelreuben You've got to get that paper up on Scribd!
  12. Congrats to @bradjward! A fantastic higher ed and social media blogger, soon to become a great daddyblogger as well.
  13. Dear higher ed marketers: No more lip dub videos, please. Unless your brand statement is "we don't have any original ideas."
  14. Wow, Glee kinda sucked tonight. A bit of a surprise after the last few weeks.
  15. @cool_news Have to ask, why don't you link to source articles (e.g. NYT, WSJ) in your blog posts? Would be more reader-friendly, no?
  16. @lockstep At the risk of offending the alum who likely wrote it, this release begs for a classroom/blog dissection: http://bit.ly/bGcaSu
  17. Dear "The Office": You suck.
  18. That would have been an "all time" buzzer beater. Damn.
  19. @andrewcareaga @rachelreuben Everyone below #5 is locked into place, no matter who wins tonight. Top 20 isn't bad. It's no Top 17 though. ;)
  20. A week ago I was riding high at the top of #fuegofour, looking forward to the weekend games. Today I'm in 10th, with nowhere to go but down.
