  1. The hardware in my leg interferes with my new iPhone's compass when I hold it by my knee. Finally, my superpower emerges! Bwaah ha ha haaaa!
  2. @club_is_open You mean you got one? Mine's supposed to arrive next week, probably while I'm gone.
  3. At what point does erudite criticism become verbose wankery? http://bit.ly/HO0Vz
  4. THE CARYATIDS, Bruce Sterling: Like watching TV 60 years from now. Apparently people will use a lot of exclamation marks in the future. [**]
  5. YAGNI is bad advice. #agilefail
  6. I installed the Phone 3.0 update and my life is still not perfect. Filthy liars! Duped again by the lords of misrule and marketing! #gnash
  7. Dear Mr. Yahderhey D. Tourist: If you're going to gripe to this local about Chicago's high sales tax, be buying more than a copy of People.
  8. I'm so happy to see that in this age of dynamic language magic, Twitter apps can still be broken by signed integer overflow errors. #badcode
  9. Things investigated and not thoroughly understood in tonight's random surfing: electric guitars, compound bows. #expensivethingswithstrings
  10. @club_is_open You'll be sore in the morning.
  11. There should be some form of reward for introducing my coworkers to new (to them) words. Today: "panopticon." Previously: "lagniappe."
  12. Online marketing whitepaper author, tell me you did not use the word "mediamorphosis" seriously. I refuse to accept this abuse, blackguard.
  13. Are pigeons getting dumber? The one that flew into the side of my head this morning was no genius, even by flying vermin standards.
  14. @evernote Next time, either spin the board or spin the dart thrower so people on the edges of the poster have a fighting chance.
  15. #cta your fancy new displays are useless if you don't show the actual train schedule and only show ads for shampoo and tv reruns. #techfail
  16. #printersrow book fair tally: 42 books, 1 DVD set (Cowboy Bebop). Favorite find: 1st ed. "Shatterday" signed by Harlan Ellison.
  17. Note to the Chicago Tribune: Next year, no wandering banjo player, no 8-hour concerts by French balladeer at the Printers Row Book Fair.
  18. @hackneys I don't care what the Tribune calls it, it is the Printers Row Book Fair.
  19. @sfsignal It was also a role-playing game: http://bit.ly/Ythk1
  20. I've just spent two nights nerding out the Macbook with macports, netbeans and Zend Server. Time to write some new software. #nowwhat
