  1. At home in Boston on a quiet Sunday morning, editing a story by David Talbot on the Wiki-zation of Internet video.
  2. @foodphilosophy You are so naughty.
  3. At work on email in the drawing room of my Boston apartment, all the windows open, a gentle summer breeze lifting the curtains.
  4. @Brad_King Yes, you see - brown rice and red beans are a complete protein, and you're not eating any disgusting simple starches.
  5. @Brad_King dude - pizza will kil you. You might as well put a gun in your mouth.
  6. It is a beautiful evening in Cambridge, and I am leaving work early (for me: it's 5.40) so that I can run up to Harvard in the golden light.
  7. @rhodesh Oh, he'll politely punt it back down to his flacks for consideration, like the well-trained CEO he is.
  8. All my Google flacks have disappeared or left the company. Could some one suggest whom I should talk to for an interview with Eric Schmidt?
  9. @semilshah Food that is both delicious and that will make you a better and smarter man - @cloverfoodtruck - is outside MIT Medical.
  10. At work at home on a mild Boston summer morning.
  11. I am mortified to tell you all that I find Asher Roth's "I Love College" entirely sublime.
  12. @lcornell Oh, I love the Wire - Hamsterdam is in Season 3, isn't it? I love the Wire.
  13. Breaking, important: 20-year study of monkeys at the U of Wisconsin shows caloric restriction slows aging in primates: http://bit.ly/3IRG5
  14. At work at MIT with the legendary designer @rogerblack - thinking about elegant, functional Web design.
  15. T. Boone Pickens backs out of his planned wind farm: http://bit.ly/MTahA
  16. @lcornell Are u really there?
  17. @dsilverman @jayrosen_nyu The iPad will be a netbook in this narrow, specific sense: it will be Web device attached to the cloud.
  18. @jayrosen_nyu 2/2 Also, who says that Appl doesn't want to play with Netbooks? The Air is a kind of Netbook. As will be the whispered iPad.
  19. @jayrosen_nyu 1/2 That's not quite right, Jay. Chrome OS is *initially* aimed at Netbooks, but its kernel could scale to other platforms.
  20. @dsilverman True, true. I meant: analysis of what the news possibly "means," if anything. Twitter can be occluding of meaning.
