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 I don't have an opinion, but that makes MC Hawking's song "Why Won't Jesse Helms Just Hurry Up And Die" outdated.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
