I'm going on the premise that people are at least capable of helping me solve problems. 8:14 PM Jun 2nd via TweetDeck
Ok, I'm upgrading them from "robot" to "person not trained to deal with this sort of issue". That's an improvement. I think. 8:14 PM Jun 2nd via TweetDeck
I think the support agent I finally connected to is either a robot or using canned responses. Awesome. 8:01 PM Jun 2nd via HootSuite
The estimated time fluctuates wildly. It's said less than a minute on and off several times now for ~45 min. Bad algorithm? 7:46 PM Jun 2nd via HootSuite
In an online support queue where my number in line sometimes goes UP. What's with that? 7:44 PM Jun 2nd via HootSuite
@brucel Seriously. No matter how many good points a person has, as soon as they utter that tripe it's over. 10:11 AM Jun 2nd via HootSuite in reply to brucel
@dylanw it's good to know that shortsightedness isn't dead. 11:10 PM Jun 1st via HootSuite in reply to dylanw
@MarcDrummond thank you! Too bad I didn't know you were coming through before today. I would have made time! Enjoy it, though! 10:59 PM Jun 1st via HootSuite in reply to MarcDrummond
@MarcDrummond Neat! I'm booked solid for the night, but enjoy it as you pass through! BFF is nice, but also very pricey. 12:11 PM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to MarcDrummond
@mattmay @susanjrobertson @marcdrummond I'm sure plenty of singularly awesome places exist throughout the area, I just can't think of any. 11:05 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to mattmay
@mattmay @susanjrobertson @marcdrummond If you did eat in Bellingham and wanted burgers, go to Boomer's Drive In. 11:04 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to mattmay
@epersonae Cool socks are always worth it, knees or no. 10:54 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to epersonae
@epersonae Knee? Shameful! D: 10:54 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to epersonae
@MarcDrummond I-5 for sure. You may hit some congestion through Seattle, but it's a pretty straight shot that's fairly speedy. 10:53 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to MarcDrummond
@MarcDrummond @susanjrobertson I am so behind on this conversation! I'm not as educated in delicious burger fair in Seattle as I should be. 10:49 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to MarcDrummond
I've been over rotating/cross-fading/[insert effect here] banners/panels for a long time. Looking forward to clients getting tired of them. 10:41 AM May 31st via TweetDeck
@manusporny Completely agreed. 10:30 AM May 31st via TweetDeck in reply to manusporny
We've had this 404 up for months at @mindflystudio, and I never realized it. Love it! Also, I now want a Mojito. mindfly.com/404 2:29 PM May 30th via TweetDeck
Let them get an appetite for web dev by starting on HTML and realizing they need more knowledge to do cooler things before pushing them away 8:48 AM May 30th via TweetDeck
On Non-coder site; article for a tool that teaches HTML "coding" has coder commenters being aggro about HTML != coding. Man, we're dicks. 8:47 AM May 30th via TweetDeck
