  2. If your life flashes before your eyes at the moment of death, maybe time is holographic. 80 years in a moment, but fuzzy.

  13. "Twitter disrupts facebook disrupts google disrupts microsoft, and unknown startups will disrupts them all" #crunchup
  14. #crunchup is feeding me real time dreams, but I dream of ants exchanging chemical messages. Will future behavior be emergent?
  15. Problem with the new RT feature is I can't add comments. The last RT is good prophecy because @stoweboyd wrote it 4 years ago.
  16. RT @stoweboyd: The Coming Real Time Revolution http://bit.ly/4SngWK from 2005, for real-time enterprise history fans #crunchup

  20. Riddle: It's not what you remember having done. It's not what you plan to do. It's what you are doing right now. What's it?
