I feel like I missed out on punk. Probably due to growing up in Utah, where there was only metal and country.
| jabancroft @blath early? We've been sitting here since 8:30. :-) |
|
| jabancroft @motherpopper I don't think it starts until 10. Hop on the MAX, get off at Hillsboro TC, walk a block north, et violá! :-) |
|
| jabancroft Jesse Helms died? I don't have an opinion, but that makes MC Hawking's song "Why Won't Jesse Helms Just Hurry Up And Die" outdated. |
|
| jabancroft Why do people bring dogs to parades? The sheer number of small children makes it... problematic - for everyone. |
|
| jabancroft At the Hillsboro 4th of July parade. I'm not a parade guy (well, I'm not a "sit in a crowd in the sun" guy) but the kids love it. |

| jabancroft @ahockley (I've been reading and posting these replies from FriendFeed. Here, Twitter is fast and stable. FF IS the best Twitter client. |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley And identi.ca doesn't even have all of its features turned on yet! They're missing replies, SMS, an API, and a ton of other stuff. |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley What's going to happen when identi.ca has to scale to the size and number of users that Twitter has? If it's slow and shaky now... |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley Of course you've seen more downtime and errors from Twitter than identi.ca. They've been around, what, a day and a half? |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley Funny, I've had the opposite experience. Twitter has been fine for me, but I've had nothing but problems with identi.ca. |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley I've been using Twitter since July of 2006 - for two years. And even considering their recent problems, yes, I call it proven. |
|
| jabancroft @ahockley Why leave Twitter, when there's not a better place to go? Identi.ca isn't there yet, by a LONG shot. It's unproven, and shaky. |
|
| jabancroft @mrkurt Blame @clint! That's where I found it! ;-) Seriously, though, sorry if I caused you any heartburn... :-) |
|
| jabancroft Hey, cool! I just went to http://slideshare.net, and guess what's "Featured" on the front page? Ignite Portland! :-) |
|
| jabancroft @clint @ejacqui Hey, when did Ars get a full text feed (http://arstechnica.com/ever...)? Awesome! Are there any more? |
|
| jabancroft Sweet! Friend at work who used to live in Switzerland and work with CERN just gave me a cool CERN mousepad. "Where the Web was born." :-) |
|
| jabancroft At lunch with coworkers at Standords. @artigupta is going on sabbatical. We'll miss her! :-) |
|
| jabancroft I wonder how long it will be until an iPhone 3G tethering hack appears? It is possible now with EDGE, but 3G is fast enough to be worth it. |
|
| jabancroft Top end 1.8GHz SSD MacBook Air just got a $500 price drop: http://tinyurl.com/45jbha (hat tip to @ejacqui). Bet people who paid $999 are mad |
