  1. @al3x I have large hands and find it comfortable. Did you try holding it between your fingers like this? http://twitpic.com/qwnhv about 10 hours ago from Tweetie in reply to al3x
  2. Back in Chicago. It was great to see everyone at #rubyconf. 5:27 PM Nov 22nd from Tweetie
  3. Rack-backed custom URL protocol for your MacRuby 0.5 application: http://github.com/sstephens... #rubyconf 4:52 PM Nov 20th from Tweetie
  4. @packagethief I'm glad we spent so much time implementing offline mode in our apps. 1:44 PM Nov 18th from Tweetie in reply to packagethief
  5. @Purephase Yes indeed. Not bad at all for $12. 1:40 PM Nov 18th from Tweetie in reply to Purephase
  6. Just popped my in-flight internet cherry. 1:21 PM Nov 18th from Tweetie
  7. Heading to SFO for #rubyconf. 11:31 AM Nov 18th from Tweetie
  8. Beach House's web site is endearingly un-savvy. E.g. the download page (http://bit.ly/jHKPJ) is an Apache directory listing with a 41MB WAV. 12:51 PM Nov 17th from Tweetie
  9. @shanev Productivity apps peak at the beginning of January too :) 11:29 AM Nov 16th from Tweetie in reply to shanev
  10. @lightcap I don't know what the specific differences are, but my copy is 220 pages and dated 1998. 9:52 PM Nov 12th from Tweetie in reply to lightcap
  11. Diving into Okasaki's "Purely Functional Data Structures" tonight. 5:48 PM Nov 12th from Tweetie
  12. Excited about @andrewdupont's Element#measure method, coming to the next version of Prototype: http://bit.ly/4dNAkR Simple and elegant. 10:27 AM Nov 12th from Tweetie
  13. Motorists: If a cyclist stops for you, please GO. It takes far more time & energy for us to get going again than for you to step on the gas. 10:03 AM Nov 12th from Tweetie
  14. Cough medicine is making my extremities numb, and also my brain. 8:42 AM Nov 2nd from Tweetie
  15. The two-finger swipe gesture is a little odd until you learn how to hold the mouse (lightly pinched between your thumb and ring fingers). 2:35 PM Oct 31st from Tweetie
  16. Sits well in your hand. Right-click works every time. Tracking is precise, with no noticeable lag. Scrolling feels like direct manipulation. 2:32 PM Oct 31st from Tweetie
  17. No, it's not a multitouch trackpad, but Magic Mouse executes on the basics better than any Apple mouse before it. A worthy upgrade. 2:32 PM Oct 31st from Tweetie
  18. Giving the Magic Mouse a spin. 12:33 PM Oct 29th from Tweetie
  19. Really nice set of improvements coming to Web Inspector in Safari: http://bit.ly/49Du1h (via @tobie) 7:37 PM Oct 28th from Tweetie
  20. Taking control of your environment isn't a bad thing. 10:13 AM Oct 28th from Tweetie
