Crazy morning. @rachelbancroft i sick, so I scrambled to get the kids up, ready, and Emma off to school. Our house depends on Rachel! #
@LeStew That’s a good idea! in reply to LeStew #
@jezlyn Flickup is my favorite iPhone photo uploader (made by @kodachrome22), but Klick is good, too. I blogged: http://tinyurl.com/5l3zfo in reply to jezlyn #

Rats. Pioneer Place Apple Store doesn’t have the new in-ear headphones yet. #
Got shoo’ed out of the Apple Store for asking if I could take a picture. Lesson?don’t ask, just take. #
When I said “just take”, I was talking about taking pictures. Not theft. I’ve taken pics in Apple Stores before, never been chastised. #
@Metroknow The weird thing is, I’ve taken pictures openly in that Apple store before, and no one said anything. But when I asked first… in reply to Metroknow #

@marusin I assume the new Apple buds work with iPhone, but I’ve heard conflicting reports, too. Waiting on a review. Would be silly not to. in reply to marusin #
Hey, remember when the iPhone 3G launched, and AT&T said they’d sell unlocked ones for $499 “after a while”? What ever happened to that? #
@junesix No, I remember them specifically saying that unlocked iPhones would be available in the U.S. for $499, sometime “after” the launch. in reply to junesix #
Hmm. Amazon Remembers employs *two* HITs on MTurk. One to say “is this identifiable and like to be on Amazon” for $0.01, and another… #
And another HIT for $0.10 that says “find this on Amazon”. So they have a penny filter to keep crap/nonsense out of the “identify this” pool #
here’s where you can see both HIT pools that Amazon Remembers uses on MTurk: http://tinyurl.com/5msskg #
@brampitoyo I use “non-trivial” as the opposite of trivial. Seriously. in reply to brampitoyo #
Hmm. I’m likely going to break 3000 followers or 10000 tweets sometime this week. Wonder which will happen first? #
Was finally able to get my Twitter Tools daily digests working again on my blog by grabbing this update: http://tinyurl.com/6p4xsc #
@adamd I was going to submit a picture of myself to AR, just to see what they’d do. Maybe they have a sense of humor? in reply to adamd #
Oh awesome! I’ve finally found a video streaming site (like UStream, Kyte, etc.) that works behind the firewall. Yay Mogulus! Messing now… #

Hey, can you help me for a second? Join me here: mogulus.com/thejoshbancroftshow #
Thanks everyone for helping me expriment with Mogulus! That was REALLY FUN! I’ll tweet/blog about the results, and you can expect more! #
@jmoriarty Hmm. It works (as a watcher) on the Intel network. At least we know that it doesn’t on VPN. Thanks for the data point. in reply to jmoriarty #

Ooh, I got the new Google Reader interface in my account. I like it. Much cleaner, and feels quite fast. Can’t wait to try on a netbook. #
@croncast Actually the old Google Reader layout, with the browser fullscreen and hit “u” to hide the sidebar, was quite good on netbooks. in reply to croncast #
Welcome @rogoway, tech reporter and Silicon FOREST blogger at the Oregonian, to Twitter. Glad to see you here, Mike! #
You know, with all these new Google Reader features, it would be nice if we could rename a freaking folder by now. #
Just trained about a dozen Intel folks in China on how to post to the ISN blog. That puts me at about 14 for today, and ~20 on the week. #
@lunarobverse They may have made the advanced “beta” iPhone GReader interface default now. I’ve been loving it for months. in reply to lunarobverse #
@pdxCJC How did you manage to rename a folder in Google Reader? in reply to pdxCJC #
According to iLounge, its only the new volume buttons on the new Apple in-ear buds that don’t work on iPhones. Clicker and mic should work. #
At least, I think that’s what iLounge said. Anyone have another source? #
Ah, excellent. Gizmodo says it IS only the volume that doesn’t work on the iPhone. Mic and clicker do work. I think I’m going to get them… #
Goodle Reader for iPhone got a little makeover today, too. Buttons are a lighter color, and it feels faster. #

http://twitpic.com/puyo - Oh, sweet! Amazon launched a free iPhone app! This is going to be dangerous… #
The Amazon iPhone app has a feature called Amazon Remembers, where you take pics of stuff you want to buy and they match it (like SnapTell). #
If Amazon Remembers works well, it’s going to be a great feature. I’ll try it out later and report results. #
Tested Amazon Remembers by taking a picture of my Kindle. A little while later, I got an email with a match/link. Cooool! #
@DavidLuzsi The app is called Amazon Mobile, I just searched for Amazon in the App store. It’s free. in reply to DavidLuzsi #
@philmartinez Yeah, and 1-Click purchasing is enabled by default in the Amazon Mobile app (though they do warn you, and you can turn it off) in reply to philmartinez #
@mas90guru That is cool (when it finds a match, the link in the email takes you to the item in the iPhone app, along with a regular URL). in reply to mas90guru #
And when Amazon Remembers finds a match, it shows up in the iPhone app as well, not just in the email they send you. Nice touch. #
Apparently, Amazon is using Mechanical Turk (human beings) to match photos taken for Remembers, and not algorithmic matching. Interesting. #
@BrianEnigma Yeah, it’s cool that they’re using Mechanical Turk. I guess Amazon is the one who pays for the HITs. Wonder how it’ll scale? in reply to BrianEnigma #
@egrigg9000 Cool idea (taking a picture of an event poster, getting an iCal file back). Doubt Amazon would do it, but someone else should! in reply to egrigg9000 #
@adamd @camikaos I’m sock-sock-Croc-Croc. And @rachelbancroft and our kids can’t stand shoes and socks, and are often barefoot. in reply to adamd #
@camikaos I don’t think they can help it. @rachelbancroft was raised by hippies in Eugene, and passed the barefoot tendency on. in reply to camikaos #
Want to browse (or work on, for $0.10 each) the photos that Amazon Remembers users send? Here’s the HIT on MTurk: http://tinyurl.com/5g89an #
@warnercrocker Thanks for the nod in the 4th annual Ink Blot awards. Would definitely love to have a beverage with you some day! in reply to WarnerCrocker #
Anyone know of other iPhone/mobile apps using Amazon’s Mechanical Turk - human processors? They have an API, but I don’t know of many apps. #
You know, Amazon’s iPhone app could add Shazam-like “listen to a song then buy it from AmazonMP3 Store” functionality. That would rock. #
@feedle Yeah, yeah, buy a gPhone. But here’s Amazon’s oppty to horn in on iTunes’ music buying monopoly on the iPhone. Disruption! in reply to feedle #
@feedle Easy on the iPhone/Apple/Jobs hate there, fella. in reply to feedle #
@feedle Meh. T-Mobile and Google will lock you in just as much as Apple and AT&T. Yes, lock-in is evil, but my iPhone makes me happy! in reply to feedle #
Wow, Amazon Remembers is getting faster. Took a picture of a Nintendo DS on my screen @ Amazon, AR identified it within about a minute. #
@feedle Why do you pay for three different cell phone service plans and have three SIM cards? in reply to feedle #
@feedle Ah. I don’t travel internationally enough to pay for another account in another country. So unlocking gets me nothing. in reply to feedle #
@jkuramot I’ve tested AR with my Kindle, my MBP power brick, my Timbuk2 Metro bag, and a screen image of a DS Lite. They nailed them all. in reply to jkuramot #
Yay! Another free Creative Commons story from Cory Doctorow (and Ben Rosenbaum). Going on my Kindle right away. http://tinyurl.com/63whwd #

@bkwalker I just tested three rather obscure devices I had at my desk. We’ll see if AR identifies them all. in reply to bkwalker #

Sometimes I feel like an outsider to all the cool PDX geek events because I live in the burbs, and often can’t make evening events. Oh well! #
I may not be at #pdxwi tonight, but I follow so many people who are, it’s like I’m attending remotely, from inside all of your heads. #
Getting new people involved in a community is hard. I say it’s more about a friendly, willing-to-teach attitude than any magic site or tool. #
A lot of us (including me) jump to “let’s build an X for that!”, but I think we’d get better results from more mentoring and friendshipping. #

The new Nokia N97 looks like a great device. Funny how everyone compares it to the iPhone. #
The N97 will be DOA in the US unless they get AT&T to offer it. For the same or lower price as the iPhone. #
What does the developer ecosystem look like for Nokia? Hard to compete with the 10,000 new apps in six months that iPhone has triggered. #
@ChrisLeckness Apple certainly didn’t invent the touchscreen phone, but they were the first to do a REALLY GOOD touch interface. in reply to ChrisLeckness #
@marshallk I love to show new people the Common Craft RSS video, Twitter Search, and the concept of feeds for automation/newsreading. in reply to marshallk #

@joshuajwolff I’m not sure about audio/video production jobs in the PDX area. Anyone know? Maybe ask @LeStew, @StephStricklen, or @aweiss. in reply to joshuajwolff #
@Soft You are correct. Google’s Calaboration app only configures iCal to sync to GCal. An “easy button”, if you will. in reply to Soft #

In an all day team face to face meeting with the ISN team. @billpearson just showed a really cool video. #
We’re doing an unusual (for Intel) but very cool exercise: everyone was to buy (or borrow) a book, then tell us why they chose that book. #
OH: “We shouldn’t be colliding with another galaxy. That’s just sloppy management. Who’s looking into this?” #
OH: “Pompei was destroyed by a volcano. That could NEVER happen here.” #
Today is the 3rd birthday of Intelpedia, the Intel-wide internal wiki I created. Celebrations taking place worldwide at Intel sites. #
Intelpedia has several “children”, wikis at other companies that I’ve helped people set up. It’s contagious! #
I never kept track of what companies I’ve helped with wiki stuff. Am thinking it would be nice to keep track, see how they’re progressing. #
@linuxaid is ALREADY posting the videos from Ignite Portland 4 last night. Will do a post on our site soon (I’m in an all day meeting). in reply to linuxaid #
@janetleejohnson The wiki platform I recommend and teach is MediaWiki, but it’s not always the best choice. in reply to janetleejohnson #
@davekresta The problem of easy wiki for newbies to edit is age old. Can try a WYSIWYG plugin but I say teach people through the curve. in reply to davekresta #
@krystlechung In general, I advocate teaching people to be smarter and more capable over dumbing the tools down to lowest common denominator in reply to krystlechung #
@jackbaty Ah. “Making it simple” versus “dumbing it down” is a subjective slippery slope. It depends. I’m all for making things simple. in reply to jackbaty #
@davekresta It’s a fine line. You want to make it as easy as you can to edit, but they also have to climb the learning curve. in reply to davekresta #
It was SO cool to have @rachelbancroft with me at Ignite Portland last night. I loved introducing her to my tweeps. She’s so wonderful! #
@matt_mcc Anyone at Intel can edit/contribute to Intelpedia. The info is limited to stuff that it’s OK for the whole company to see. in reply to matt_mcc #
Postulate: Building community sells more of your company’s product that traditional marketing efforts. Discuss. Data points or anecdotes? #
@krystlechung Interfaces (e.g. blog engines) can make things easy for people, but they will benefit from knowledge of the markup code. in reply to krystlechung #
@krystlechung Right. I would never tell someone “You’ll never have to learn ANY HTML. You can always just use the WYSIWYG interface.” in reply to krystlechung #
Hmm. Turns out that thinking up ideas that really “push the envelope” is really hard. #
@wajiii At the least, people should tag their photos igniteportland or ip4, so they can be found. This is the first I’ve heard of a pool. in reply to wajiii #

Today’s the big day! Ignite Portland 4! Tag is #IP4, if you’re into that sort of thing. I need to get my search feeds in place to track buzz #
@jarvitron Yeah, but, besides a touchscreen (which I wouldn’t want), what other 901 add-ons are there? I don’t know of any exciting ones… #
@jarvitron I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a version of the 1000H with 3G announced. They’re the same motherboard. Shouldn’t hard to add. YMMV. #
@Britopian Why does something always have to get killed? I prefer to think in more collaborative, creative terms than militant/warfare. #
I predict that Ignite Portland is going to show up on the Twitter Trends at search.twitter.com tonight. #
@Britopian I see. I was illustrating a point, too. #
@turoczy Thanks for the awesome “tips and tricks to enjoy Ignite Portland” post (http://twurl.cc/7gn). I reposted part on the IP blog. #
Off to lunch with the ISN team, then, finish getting ready for Ignite tonight. I’m nervous about getting up on stage for “What is Ignite” #
@Brady we wish you could make it, too! Itgoing to be awesome. #
So, Ignite Portland doesn’t even start for a few hours, and we’re already killing Twitter? Awesome. #ip4 #
@rachelbancroft and I are on our way over to the east side for Ignite Portland 4! w00t! #

I, for one, welcome our new spam filter-based software overlords. #
@wesley83 The iPhone syncs and works perfectly well with Windows, too. Don’t let lack of a Mac keep you from the awesomest phone on earth #
@wesley83 iPhone web browsing is SO much better than WM. Tons of awesome apps in the app store. The overall experience is much nicer. #
@Stammy I noticed that limitation (can’t page back more than 200 in my Twitter history) a bit ago. It’s why I now archive mine on my blog. #
@wesley83 More reasons I love my iPhone: Ocarina. Google Earth. Lightsaber. iChalky. Shazam. Pandora. Urbanspoon. i.TV. Brighkite. Etc. #
@wesley83 I had WM devices for years. They’re very capable. But the iPhone blows them away. And why would one want Flash on mobile web page? #
@wesley83 Which apps do you use for productivity? (I’m not trying to badger you here. Just a friendly comparison. #
@wesley83 Honestly, the three things I use most on my iPhone are the iPhone web versions of FriendFeed, Google Reader, and Twitter. #
@robevans Since when is “can multitask” the definition of a smartphone? How does that make a difference? What’s real-world benefit? #
@wesley83 Cool. Like I said, WM is a good platform, and I’m sure you’ll be happy with your phone. #
@robevans I totally understand wanting more flexibility. I’m willing to sacrifice it for something that does what I want REALLY well. #
@robevans Yup, it’s all *nix under the covers. Jailbroken, it’s basically a little BSD box in your pocket. #
How stupid is it that the fancy new iPhone formatted Google search results (http://tinyurl.com/68m8kj) don’t work from Safari’s search box? #
The new Flip Mino HD looks REALLY nice. A 720p video cam for $229. Added it to my Wishlist in case someone wants to buy me one. #
So. Ignite Portland 4 is tomorrow night. Are you ready? I am. Oh, hey! There’s going to be a surprise announced there… #
@influxx The Flip Mino HD is only $229, not $300. Even better! #
@turoczy Indeed. Make sure to pay attention during my “What is Ignite?” talk at the beginning of the evening. #
@ahockley Sadly, the fire marshall and the owners of the Bagdad put the kibosh on the pyrotechnics…. #
@turoczy I’ll tell you. Tomorrow night. #
@greghughes If we ever do an Ignite in a pyrotechnic-friendly venue, we just might take you up on that. Thanks! #
Aaand, my Internet connection through Intel’s proxy is taking a dirt nap. Neighbors’, too. I feel slower and dumber. #
@chrisorourke The proxies are occasionally cranky and overworked, so I can’t really blame them. Sometimes, the tubes just get clogged. #
@jltitus Google Reader, Twitter, FriendFeed, and NetVibes. #
Get an Eee PC 900A netbook from Best Buy for $279: http://tinyurl.com/5o8l4l Not the cream of the crop, but a great deal. #
Now THIS is a brilliant idea: http://www.sitorsquat.com - I downloaded the free iPhone app (there’s a BlackBerry version, too, @ahockley #
@ahockley Oh, come on. Tell me you’ve never been in public and needed to find a decent public restroom. I know I have. #
Ooops. @rachelbancroft just reminded me about some DVDs I was supposed to return to the library last week. That are still in my car. #
I refuse to check my Twitterank, because it automatically tweets as me, without warning. Nice way to harvest people’s Twitter credentials. #
RT @tiesque: Idea: BankAccountRank.com - Provide me the login credentials of your bank account & I give you a meaningless # in return. #
@spinnerin LIghts just flickered out here at Intel (JF1) in Hillsboro, too, which is really unusual. Wonder what it was? #
It’s times like this (power hit in the Portland area) when I REALLY wish @Twitter hadn’t killed @pulseofpdx by disabling “with_friends”. #
@bjedwards And that totally depends on whether you believe/trust him. Anyone can write anything on the internet! #
Hello, free floating anxiety. Been a while. Remind me not to listen to NPR Planet Money podcast about the economy when you’re around. #
@stevenwalling I don’t know who’s behind @PortlandRain, but they’re brilliant. I pronounce “fake natural phenomena” the next Twitter meme. #
Ice Cream Review: Ben & Jerry’s Visialize Whirled Peace, not so gret akshully. #
I think TweetDeck can FINALLY see all of my followers, so lists aren’t uselessly incomplete anymore. I think I might be falling in love… #
Ah. @PortlandRain has a partner in crime: @PortlandSun. I get the feeling they don’t talk much. #
And now all the cool kids are telling me I need to try Tweetsville on iPhone. Will it be good enough to get me to switch from Twitteriffic? #
@ihenpecked No, it uses the iPhone’s data connection (EDGE, 3G, or wifi). Only app that uses text messages is the text msg app, AFAIK. #
@jezlyn I’ve only been using Tweetsville for a few minutes, but it’s really good. Fast. Looks and feels like Apple wrote it. Worth the $3.99 #
@jezlyn Yeah, I know what you mean. I don’t buy TOO many apps, and $3.99 is about my impulse limit, but it DOES add up fast. #
I love that Tweetsville remembers my custom “ego” search string when I quit. Nice. #
@ahockley That reminds me. I’m out of Moo cards. #
Oops. Messing around with both Tweetdeck and Tweetsville at the same time, I’ve blown my API request quota. That means goodnight! #
@lawduck My “fits in a tweet” netbook recommendation is an Eee PC 1000H or MSI Wind. But there are lots of other good ones. #
@lawduck Worried about size? Eee PC 901 or HP Mini Note 1000 is the way to go. But the HP has a slow 4200 RPM drive, and only 3 cell battery #
@jarvitron The Eee PC 1000H is Atom-based, too. Nearly identical to the 901 except it’s bigger, has a 10″ screen, and a hard drive. #

Headed downtown to present at Intel’s Software Enabling Summit in a bit. It’s Intel’s big annual software conference. #
Going to attempt to teach some software engineers why they should blog, use a feed reader, and other social tools. Wish me luck! #
At the Waterfront Marriott. My Intel SES session is in an hour. It’s windy and cold out there! - http://bkite.com/02l9v #
I should say that I’m co-presenting with @amybarton. Not trying to hog the spotlight or anything. #

@verso Bummer. I’ll probably only be down here for my session. Short trip. #

Gmail Video and Audio chat is SO cool. GTalk in the browser has been my only IM solution for a long time. Now I have audio and video. #
@jezlyn Yeah, I think that Sprint thing is going to get old fast. I keep coming back to Digg Arc. What other sites make good screensavers? #
@geekygirldawn I don’t know how you juggle everything. I have half that on my plate, and I’m already pulling my hair out. #

Second meeting of the day already. Several more slated. This week just might kill me. But if I can survive until Saturday, I’ll be OK. #
Monday seems to be the day when we all complain on Twitter about how many meetings we have. It’s a new national pastime! #
@KarenPearson Where do you think honey comes from? #
@ahockley Have you tried fftogo.com? Great mobile interface for FriendFeed. Should work great on your BlackBerry. #
Ah, the library. Temple of knowledge, information, quiet, and free wifi. - http://bkite.com/02ks7 #
@ahockley And FriendFeed DOES have IM (new last week) and an API (see: Twhirl). If they were up right now I could give links. #
@ahockley Ah, gotcha. Context FTW. #
@camikaos Don’t worry. At the very worst, we’ll have as many people as Ignite Portland 2 (when we hit fire code, had to turn people away) #
@KarenPearson I know. But why pass up an opportunity be silly and/or scar a child for life? My kids think ladybugs say “RAWWRR!” #

There’s going to be a “mini” Ignite Portland at the Keep Portland Weird festival at the Central Library, with a few alumni talks. 2:15PM #
Come by the Ignite thing at the library if you want, but I haven’t been advertising it, because it’s a really small space. #
I had visions of flooding the library with the throngs of people who seem to materialize whenever I mention Ignite Portland. #
Guess what? @jonathancoulton and John Hodgman did not one but two shows in Portland last night. I made it to niether. I’m lame. #
I’m at the Portland Central Library, 3rd floor, if anyone’s looking for me. Ignite “Keep Portland Weird” in 1 hr. #
If you’re looking for me, I’m actually NOT wearing my trademark orange Crocs. First time in years. I know. #
I am, however sporting brightly colored Nikes and a patriotic Diesel Sweeties tshirt, so I’m still easy to spot. #
@sharong Ignite Portland 4 IS next week. This is a little alumni “mini” Ignite at the Library’s KPW festival. #
@sharong I purposely didn’t advertise this one much, for fear of overwhelming the small-ish venue. #
@samgrover Curses! I can’t make those Coulton/Hodgman shows, either. I need to pay more attention, and plan ahead for these things. #
HUGE thanks to @verso, @peat, @geekygirldawn, Phillip K., and @sarahgilbert for sharing their Ignite talks at the Keep Portland Weird fest.! #
We filled the place up pretty well, and the crowd seemed to like it. Organizers were effusive with praise. Good job, folks! #
