  1. RT @askinglife: Will happiness find me?
  2. just for the record: i didn't want to imply that twitter's API is good REST. it's far from that. it's not quite as bad as flickr, though.
  3. very helpful message after MiKTeX update failure: "Error: The operation failed for some reason." never touch a running MiKTeX.
  4. @stilkov perfect weather for this trip, enjoy the ferry ride. now going for a ride myself, but in the hills on the other side of the bay.
  5. RT @cygri: I'm @dret's mystery angry researcher. Apology here: http://bit.ly/6DgMQM
  6. for a minute or two i was tempted to configure our WiFi with SSID "Al Qaida", but now its "squirrelnet". neighbors will be happier.
  7. RT @delineator: great summary of the relationship between Topic Maps and RDF: http://bit.ly/DzBfL (via @opendatanetwork)
  8. it's not as bad as some others. at least some computable links to something... RT @sgillies: Where's the REST in Twitter's "REST API"?
  9. dinner with @stilkov @jimwebber and @iansrobinson at xyz. take-away: never ever say you're creating a “REST description language”.
  10. @asplake there definitely is some prior use of “Information Engineering”, but it's mostly historical now and limited in scope.
  11. RESTival #QConSF meeting at 7.30 Westin Market Street, 50 Third Street. @stilkov and @rohitkhare should be in.
  12. wonderful. now they're spraying tear gas on our students. they sure know how to handle this one gracefully.
  13. @n8agrin last time i checked, there was no "world wide web app store" your browser used for running web apps. (well, there's AdSense...)
  14. if ChromeOS gains traction, talking about "native" vs. "web-based" mobile apps won't make sense anymore. HTML5 is the new iPhone.
  15. Large Hadron Collider ready to restart http://is.gd/4ZVxm ; the sheer magnitude of this endeavor is staggering.
  16. this morning, i was contacted by The Linked Data™ Police http://is.gd/4ZVjS
  17. my "Information Engineering Elevator Pitch" on the blog http://is.gd/4ZKUx
  18. it's unfortunate that the vast majority of @W3C specs are published without clearly marked diffs. should be required from every spec editor.
  19. given how much Ajax rules the world, it's surprising to see that XMLHttpRequest moves into last call draft only now. http://is.gd/4Zclu
  20. @stilkov sure, missing the #QConSF dinner would not be good. why don't you agree with @rohitkhare on something and then i'll join?
