  1. @FunAndSoul @jason_preu We need a club! Arial Anonymous. Or, catchier: The Secret Typography Society & Arial Appreciation League.
  2. (Did I mention I like Arial better than Helvetica?) •
  3. Sometimes a McDonald's medium coffee, black, just absolutely hits the spot. Sharp, direct... and HOT! Like, hottest coffee ever •
  4. @DoWhatITellYou We're on to you! RT @lssloan confirmed: llamas are aliens: http://mellonjam.com/wp-con...
  5. ALSO, is this the best blog name ever? I think so, probably: "The Quantum Pontiff." http://scienceblogs.com/pon...
  6. Like, the basics (and the politics!) that every research scientist (like @dabacon) knows & takes for granted—written up for a layperson.
  7. Would love read something really wide-angled about the state of science funding in the U.S.—where it comes from, how it gets allocated.
  8. This post @dabacon has got me wondering about science funding. Not "how much"; really just "how" >> http://bit.ly/8pHHBZ
  9. RT @wired: At @makerbot HQ w/ @chr1sa and @dangerroom. A personal, open-source 3D printer for $750 http://yfrog.com/371swj [I want one pls!]
  10. Hmm. My laptop is increasingly just a big heavy battery for my iPhone. 1) Thank god for power via USB; 2) I'm not the only one, right?
  11. Who will be the first to spell out a message with geotagged tweets—points lined up to form blocks-wide letters & words?
  12. Ooh—one of my favorite sites has a slick new look. Tons of brain food, both nutritious and delicious, here: http://hilobrow.com
  13. RT @kickstarter: What motivates people to back Kickstarter projects? Is it want, need, or something else entirely? http://bit.ly/5ennfN
  14. @ZAmmi This is true! A dorm room at 4 a.m. is a very singular kind of space.
  15. (Now I want a data viz of truth vs. time. Imagining a spike around 1 a.m. when secrets are confessed, schemes made clear.)
  16. RT @jonathanstark: "I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours." —Hunter S. Thompson
  17. Mannheim Skywalker #starwarsbandnames
  18. @SFWeekly Dottie's True Blue Cafe. Painfully long line; street outside smells like pee. But so, so worth it.
  19. @magicandrew @superkiy Paris secured, prepped for your arrival. Commence Operation Infinite Baguette.
  20. (Tweet. of. the. week.)
