Girl Scout Day! Woo! (@ World Forestry Center) http://4sq.com/8rzJmF #
I wish the iPhone Facebook app had "Read Later" for Instapaper for links. I've been spoiled by Tweetie (and now Reeder). #
@kentgiard I'm loving Reeder. Tried all the paid iPhone apps. Reeder is the fist one I've stuck with over the GReader web interface. in reply to kentgiard #

Another gripe with the new Facebook UI: "Recently Added" friends is nowhere to be found, and I have no idea how to reorder my lists now. #
And I can't see how to add a friend to a list in the new Facebook UI, either. I'm all for progress, but why remove so many features? #
@penmachine LOL I would totally buy that (Facebook element layout being random). in reply to penmachine #
@1tonyjones @jschultz I'm all for pretty and I've liked the past Facebook designs. But this one moves the useful stuff too many clicks away. in reply to 1tonyjones #
BTW "Recently Added Friends" is now behind Account, Edit Friends, Recently Added, in case you were left looking for it. #
Still have no idea how to re-order a friends list in the new Facebook design. #
BTW, if you haven't yet tried the Siri iPhone app, get it. Voice driven assistant. Tell it to book a table, call a cab, lookup movies, etc. #
Tell Your iPhone To Make You A Sandwich With Siri http://post.ly/MMiH #
@LeStew The makers of Siri recommend the iPhone 3GS for speed, but I've heard it runs OK (if a little slower) on a 3G. in reply to LeStew #
I love it when people bring their small children to work, and I hear their cute little voices. Don't shush them! We need the cute! #

Thinking I should bifurcate my home network in to N-only and G-only. Might help isolate my problem. Plus, I love the word "bifurcate". #

Ignite Portland 8 Talks are getting selected. Ooh! Aah! (@ NedSpace w/ 2 others) http://4sq.com/6gZRug #
Playing with the new Siri iPhone app. It's fun to boss my phone around. "sudo make me a sandwich" doesn't work, though. #
Data point: my Airport Extreme only stops working when my iPhone uses it. Works all day with @rachelbancroft's phone and other machines. #
Never got AEBS -> iMac remote syslog working. Trying a static IP address on my iPhone to see if that helps the overall issue. #

RT @Tersteeg: Great to see credit to @jabancroft in Harvard Business Review for the ongoing success of Intelpedia. http://bit.ly/cafuP4 (Aw) #
I want to publicly thank @bryanrhoads and @kenekaplan for dropping my name in so many positive ways. I feel like they're my PR team! #
@texturadesign Wow, that pic brings back memories. Gotta figure out how to get back to Shanghai again! in reply to texturadesign #
OK, I'm back on the Inbox Zero wagon. I fell off at the beginning of the year. (but I had a pretty good 4 month stretch going before that!) #
Hey Twitter: If you had to guess, how many Mac applications would you say there are? 10K? 100K? A Million? #
Let me clarify: How many Mac OS X apps (i.e., modern apps) would you guess there are? #
Wait, what? Comcast is changing their name to "Xfinity"? Seriously? http://bit.ly/aUk7wQ #
OH: "Wow, it's raining East Coast style." (in Hillsboro). #pdxtst #
I should go home, but it's still raining pretty hard, and I don't want to get soaked on the way to my car. #notarealoregonian #
Can someone tell my why my home network has gone insane? Every evening, my Airport Extreme will cease to function, need a reboot. *sigh* #
I can't even grab a log from my AEBS, since when it goes out to lunch, only a reboot fixes it, and that clears the log. #
@mightiermouse Yeah, I'm going to try that (have it send syslogs to the iMac). Thanks. in reply to mightiermouse #

@CAMURPHY Seriously? @isntv is blocked for you? Bummer! Can you see it at http://software.intel.com ? We put the player there on show day. in reply to CAMURPHY #
RT @dangillmor: Android Wordpress app looks terrific — http://android.wordpress.org/ (via @om) #
RT @BenKuchera: The This American Life iPhone app is amazing. $3 for access to every episode? Sweet. #
iPhone OS 3.1.3 is out: http://bit.ly/8ZXtsv Seems like mostly bugfixes/battery accuracy. I'm going to pludge – will report back. #
Full-Color Iron Man MacBook Decal Kills Bad Guys with Branding [Iron Man] http://j.mp/9CekEf I'd totally rock this decal. #
iPhone OS 3.1.3 update was successful – nothing out of the ordinary. I'll be watching for better battery meter accuracy. #
@lunarobverse Except that 3.1.3 doesn't add "iPad" to the dictionary. It still autocorrects to upas. in reply to lunarobverse #
iPhone OS 3.1.3 updated the radio firmware, and the "bars" seem more accurate. No more "I have bars but nothing works". Now it's "no bars". #
@LeStew iPhone OS 3.1.3? Came out this morning. Where have you been? in reply to LeStew #
Star Wars sneakers by Adidas http://j.mp/bwFpUT WANT. White and orange. Perfect. #
@gruber and @glennf made me check my iPhone 3G data usage history. I avg 125MB/month, never more than 170MB. Hello, $15/250MB iPad plan! #
@blogan Debating with an Apple fanboi? You and I haven't talked today… in reply to blogan #
Can You Get By with 250 MB of Data Per Month? http://j.mp/8ZQU1H (I think I can. Loosing at my bills, I average around 125MB, max 190MB.) #
I think the key to my low iPhone 3G data usage is the fact that I'm near wifi more than I thought. 'Cuz I use the heck out of the thing. #

Cordless landline (well, Vonage) phone at home is dying (5.4GHz Panasonic). Time to buy a new one, or go cell-only? Hmm… #
I wish I could port my Vonage number to Google Voice. I'd dump our "landline" in a heartbeat. #
@mike_strock Yeah, I could forward my Vonage number to GV. But I want to stop paying for Vonage. in reply to mike_strock #
@mike_strock It's not that I can't port a number *from* Vonage. I can. It's that I can't (yet) port a number *to* Google Voice. in reply to mike_strock #
Reeder for iPhone (syncs with Google Reader) is *really* nice. I've tried all the GReader client apps, this is by far the best. #
Lego iPad http://j.mp/dluKAQ Nice. #
I'm thinking we should just bite the bullet, dump our land line at home, tell everyone a new Google Voice number, and move on. #

@gruber makes a good point about Flash on the iPhone/iPad: how would you play all those games designed for keyboard/mouse on a touchscreen? #
@texturadesign I've been loving @stevenf's stuff on the iPad. @Marco and @fraserspiers, too. in reply to texturadesign #

RT @atebits: "It's just a big iPod touch" is the new "less space than a nomad". #
Think of how the iPad will evolve as the software gets updated. Remember the first iPhone? No apps. One page of icons. #
@texturadesign I've never missed multitasking, either, because my eyes and fingers can only unitask. in reply to texturadesign #
The only convincing argument I've heard for "true" multitasking on iPhone is "I want to listen to Pandora in the background." #
@wesley83 I have no idea. They're diffierent architecture, so it's kind of apples and oranges. And I'm a software guy, not a chip guy. in reply to wesley83 #
@Metroknow thanks for @stephenfry's review. Instapaper'ed to read later. in reply to Metroknow #
For the record, I too would like to stream Pandora in the background on iPhone. But not at the expense of responsiveness and battery life. #
@PatrickMoorhead I bounce between email, phone, Twitter, web, and games on my iPhone, too. It works great. Apps save state. in reply to PatrickMoorhead #
@ahockley IM apps on iPhone make clever use of push notifications to keep you "logged in" without feeding a process CPU cycles and juice. in reply to ahockley #
And before anyone writes me off because I'm an Apple fanboy/apologist, I know I am. Says so right on the tin: http://tinyscreenfuls.com #
@PatrickMoorhead you're right, some apps don't save state perfectly. But most do. And that's up to each developer, not the OS. in reply to PatrickMoorhead #
@CptNemo9189 LOL I like to disclose my biases up front, even when they're painfully obvious. in reply to CptNemo9189 #
RT @aaroneiche: I think the simple answer is you stream Pandora on your iPhone while you're doing other stuff on your iPad. (/me: exactly!) #
Re: background Pandora, other apps, like WunderRadio can stream in the background by using the built in media player (which can background). #
I had no idea iPhone apps had 5 seconds after closing to do work and save app state: http://bit.ly/98tLHa /via @cldfactory #
Scored my iPad predictions. Not to be smug, but I didn't do too bad! (only missed the name and the keyboard dock) http://bit.ly/bXGCSd #
