Huh. @Instapaper has a 250 article limit. I ran smack into it. Doing some pruning now. Got to lay off the longform.org crack pipe. #
Oh, man. I should have downloaded my @Instapaper reads as an ePub before I archived and nuked a whole bunch of them. #
@lunarobverse you can also save from @Instapaper as Kindle format, as well as printable, CSV, and HTML exports of your reading list. in reply to lunarobverse #
@instapaper Yay! Good news about bumping the article limit in the app to 500 soon. Glad to hear it. I need to read more, capture less. in reply to instapaper #
Just got my first "the information on this page is outdated/error 5002" in iTunes 10. *sigh* /cc @ejacqui @chartier #
Welp, at some point over the weekend, I surpassed the "1000 iOS Apps" mark. 1009, according to iTunes (only half live on my devices). #
@dougholland I can't wait to try a WP7 phone. Hook a brother up? I'm open to being convinced. in reply to dougholland #
@dougholland I will be broadcasting @isntv from the Intel AppUp Center booth Mon and Tue at IDF. Stop by and say Hi! in reply to dougholland #
RT @ahockley: Wondering how I got onto the Social Media Club's email spa^H^H^H newsletter list… #
@jezlyn I haven't found a good way to list all the apps I'm using. AppsFire wasn't quite there. I need to do a writeup soon. in reply to jezlyn #
Learning Markdown. I blame @danfrakes for mentioning Posterous, @Justin/@secondgear for making MarkdownMail, and of course, @gruber. #
@verso I found that I was mostly writing Markdown already, I just didn't know it. Have a look for yourself: http://j.mp/dw25pk in reply to verso #
@ebohling I'm planning on using @secondgear's MarkdownMail iPhone app to generate the HTML for Posterous. in reply to ebohling #
I've gone Markdown crazy. The most useful thing I've learned in years. What took me so long? http://j.mp/9JxVe2 #
Now I wish Twitter, Facebook, and Gmail (and all the other web tools) supported Markdown. Which ones do? Share! #
@Durf I guess the link Markdown syntax is the only one t makes sense in Twitter. But it would rock in Gmail and Facebook. in reply to Durf #
@chartier I saw that. I keep looking for an excuse to start a Tumblog again, because it's so sweet. in reply to chartier #
@LanceWeber curse you. Now I'm diving down the github rabbit hole, and thinking of all the cool things I could do with it. in reply to LanceWeber #

Bejeweled Blitz on my phone is my grill timer. I cook not by minutes, but by how many rounds of Blitz I play. #

@MikePerry @shanselman Portland Family mag has all their issues online as PDFs. I'm not sure which month it was. http://bit.ly/aAW8XD in reply to MikePerry #
@MikePerry @shanselman Oh wait, I found a link under Features: http://portlandfamily.com/team-hanselman-and-its-fight-against-diabetes/ in reply to MikePerry #
@StevenWalling @samgrover HDR gets abused. I'll cop to that. But it does let you make some amazing shots if you know what you're doing. in reply to StevenWalling #
@bryanrhoads yay! Been following the latest on Holland on Facebook. Take care! in reply to bryanrhoads #

We had a fire drill at work yesterday during the Apple event broadcast. Here's how we fanboys dealt with it. http://bit.ly/bPBlxh #

Nice writeup (and cute family pic!) of @shanselman's crusade against diabetes in Portland Family Magazine: http://gdzl.la/8xAtzN #
@shanselman we found this issue of Portland Family Monthly at Out of THis World. It might sneak home with us and into your mailbox. in reply to shanselman #

@kegill I use Pro HDR and True HDR. Both give different results in diff conditions. Can't wait to try Apple's HDR in 4.1. in reply to kegill #

With the Apple event this morning, I'll be in full on fanboy mode. You've been warned. Feel free to ignore/argue as you see fit. #
Watching the live stream of the Apple event on the big TV in the JF1 living room. http://gdzl.la/8xgtZr #
Argh!!! Who schedules a fire drill during an Apple event!?!! #
Streaming the Apple keynote on my iPhone on my car stereo during the dang fire drill. It's like a drive in nerd movie out here. #
HDR photos built in to iOS 4.1? Awesome! #
I love making HDR photos on my iPhone. Will be I treating to see how Apple's implementation compares to ProHDR and TrueHDR. #
We're watching the keynote back inside now. #
The new iPod nano is my new watch. #
For the record, the streaming quality over 3G when we were on my iPhone in my car during the fire drill was impeccable. #
That $99 Apple TV is killer. So glad it has Netflix. I may never boot my PS3 again. #
So, a new Nano for my watch, iPod Touches for the kids, and the new Apple TV for the living room. I'm happy. #
The iPhone 4 is the best pocket camera I've ever used. The photo apps are amazing. Happy to see that come to the iPod touch. #
@adamd Disappointment comes from unmet expectations, and I try to set my expectations correctly for Apple events. in reply to adamd #
For those getting ready to call me a fanboy, go read my bio line. On Twitter, my blog, everywhere else. "Unabashed". #
@rogoway It's at the bottom of this page: "Either camera on iPod touch can capture stills" (and in the screenshots) http://bit.ly/d182ZE in reply to rogoway #
I can't get iTunes 10 to download. Most of the download page loads, except the little part that actually starts the download. #
@samgrover Feh. You're right. "iTunes 10 Coming Soon. Download iTunes 9 Now." #impatient in reply to samgrover #
Epic Citadel, a demo of the iOS game shown onstage today, is available for free (and universal): http://bit.ly/cQ0Rb8 #
Since @adamd asked, things that disappointed me from Apple today: No video on Nano. No BT remote for AppleTV. $.99 for TV rentals too high. #
I hope that today's live stream of the Apple event performed well enough for them to continue doing it. #
Fire drill during an Apple event? Stream it on the car stereo in the parking lot! Nerd Drive-in! http://post.ly/v3T3 #
The camera on the new iPod touch doesn't have an LED light/flash. But it does gain a built in mic. A boon for audio apps (and VoIP). #
At $0.99 rental per episode, it would cost me $2-3 every time I sit down and plow through a few TV episodes. Good thing it has Netflix. #
And it would have cost $31 to watch all of Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, like @rachelbancroft and I recently did. Yeesh. #
If I had to pay $0.99 every time my kids re-watched an episode of Avatar, I'd owe more to Apple than I do on my house. #
@rodfather Got a concrete reference for the still photo resolution of the rear iPod touch camera? in reply to rodfather #
Oh, *THERE'S* the big disappointment. The iPod touch's rear camera only takes 960×720 stills (but video is HD). Boo! http://bit.ly/UHzOn #
We're watching the keynote back inside now. #
Being attacked by loud, explosive hiccups. Apologies to those within earshot. #
Oops. That update about "back inside watching the keynote" must've been trapped in Twitter on my iPhone. It was from this morning. #
Just pre-ordered my ?TV using the Apple Store iPhone app. Only took a few seconds, easy as pie. Love it. #
I wonder what that USB port on the back of the new ?TV (under the HDMI port) is for? #
Apple's ?TV Tech Specs page says the (micro) USB port is for "service and support" (read: hacking . http://bit.ly/aparPn #
iTunes 10 is quickly running out of "today"… #
@mikearmstrong99 Not sure. There's HDMI and optical audio out. I'm wondering how I'm going to integrate it into my old receiver setup. in reply to mikearmstrong99 #
RT @nevenmrgan: iPhone HDR test: http://bit.ly/c5pr7o Great for clarity, saturation and tone obviously suffer. #
I wonder if iOS apps that use the camera (augmented reality, barcode scanners, etc.) will work with the iPod touch's low res camera? #
@jasonmauer the iPod touch's rear camera shoots stills at 960×720. Less than 1MP. That's HD video res. Front cam is 640×480. in reply to jasonmauer #
@ashokraj no wireless sync. in reply to ashokraj #
@jasonmauer yeah, I'm guessing augmented reality apps will be OK. Barcode scanner apps may have a harder time at that res, though. in reply to jasonmauer #
Got iTunes 10. Ping *does* connect with Facebook. Why on earth didn't they, you know, mention that? #
The little "show the album art in place of the album name for more than 5 in a row" feature in iTunes 10 isn't working for me. Boo. #
I'm on iTunes Ping and findable. Add me if you like. No making fun of my music – it doesn't have most of the indie stuff I listen to. #
Twitter for iPad: Sharing content in Tweets http://j.mp/bmFje2 Woo hoo! It's here! #
So, Twitter for iPad is in the app store. Sort of. It still installs the iPhone version for me. Release date is tomorrow 9/2). Weirdness. #
Twitter for iPad review http://j.mp/cBcyzG I can't get it yet, but here's an early review by Engadget. #
The iPad/iPhone syncing screen got a nice facelift in iTunes 10: http://twitpic.com/2kffet #
In iTunes 10 device syncing for apps, you can now show only iPad apps. But search/filtering seems to be gone: http://twitpic.com/2kffvl #
Finally got Twitter for iPad. Downloaded via iTunes, where I could easily refresh until I saw version 3.1 available. #
@JustiPhoneBlog Universal. Version is 3.1. Release date is 9/2/10. Keep refreshing. in reply to JustiPhoneBlog #
Ahh. Twitter for iPad is gorgeous. Thanks, @atebits/@lorenb and @bhaggs! http://gdzl.la/8xta57 #
Hmm. Searching for nearby tweets seems to be missing from the new Twitter for iPad. I loved that radar animation. #
Nevermind. Location search is there. Just have to start typing in the search field, then choose "nearby" as the scope. #
@ahockley try "quote tweet". That's the new RT. in reply to ahockley #

Got my traditional seat front and center at @Gnomedex! #
Kicking off the last day of @Gnomedex ever. Sad, but the memories and ideas and cool stuff will last forever. Thanks, Chris. #
Amy Karlson sharing interesting data "typical" user mobile device behavior. My atypical iPhone/iPad lifestyle feels futuristic. #gnomedex #
@kathy_live @sethlong I think the data/research is good. But many of us live in the future. What we do now will be normal in a few years. in reply to kathy_live #
I made a decision years ago to move my life into the cloud, so I could slide frictionlessly among my continuum of devices. #gnomedex #
I'm very happy with my Gmail, Dropbox, Omnifocus, Google Reader, etc. cloud lifestyle. I'm happy and productive on any device. #gnomedex #
I've been away from the office for a week, but my inbox is empty, and I've stayed on top of all my tasks using my iPhone and iPad. #gnomedex #
It occurs to me that I really need to write a detailed post on how I use the cloud and my devices in my workflow/lifestyle. #gnomedex #
@sethlong Yeah, I can't help but thinking the "problems" here are caused by living a Microsoft Office centered life. @gnomedex in reply to sethlong #
I wonder if anyone at Google Research has conducted a similar study of mobile device usage, and what their findings were? #gnomedex #
I haven't heard Amy say "cloud" or "sync" during her talk, but it seems obvious they are the answer to this "problem". #gnomedex #
This is a workflow and habit problem, and not a technology problem when moving beyond a desktop lifestyle. #gnomedex #
@jshuey I think you're right. I kept thinking "workflow and training and habits" rather than tech to smooth things out. #gnomedex in reply to jshuey #
@akkarlson Great #gnomedex talk, and great research. Thanks for sharing. (I'm the guy in front who asked the cloud question. in reply to akkarlson #
I'm all for more women in tech. I want my daughter to do whatever she wants, tech or not. #gnomedex #
Interesting that the (many) women in tech that I know get annoyed by always having to give the "Women in Tech" talk. #gnomedex #
TechMavens.com just launched their WordPress-based site at #gnomedex Pretty sure they didn't install WP-Super Cache, can't get there. #
If @TechMavens need role models, they need to meet @geekygirldawn, @spinnerin, @selenamarie, and the other amazing PDX geek women. #gnomedex #
@lyzadanger I've had several separate conversations with women who are tired of having to be "the woman in tech" lately. in reply to lyzadanger #
@OhmLabMusic @spinnerin @lyzadanger I hope by the time my daughter grows up, we no longer need to have the "Women in Tech" talks. in reply to OhmLabMusic #
Just realized @caseorganic is sitting right behind me at #gnomedex Chagrined I didn't include her in my tweet about amazing women in tech. #
I can't write a list of amazing women in tech that I know. I won't fit in even 10 tweets, and I'd leave someone off. #
Been using ClearCam for iPhone a lot this morning. Takes multiple rapid shots, saves the clearest. Working fantastically well. #gnomedex #
Oh, you are! RT @caseorganic @jabancroft I'd rather be an amazing person in tech! #gnomedex #
@shanselman Sadly, you won't be able to come to Gnomedex next year. This is the last one. in reply to shanselman #
The stuff on macro trends that Larry Wu is sharing is absolutely spot on. Brilliant. #gnomedex #
@shanselman He's about figuring out consumer behavior and trends. See @jaycross's recent tweets for examples. Retro, fingerprinting, etc. in reply to shanselman #
@shanselman Oh, you mean why is this the last Gnomedex? Chris decided. He needs more help to pull it off, a company to run it. in reply to shanselman #
@blazeIt I would have kept using the Evo 4G, but the Froyo 2.2 update disabled the wifi hotspot feature unless I pay Sprint $30/month. in reply to blazeIt #
Scott Draves' "Generation 243" is gorgeous. It's a 1080p HD "sheep" from Electric Sheep, an art piece at Carnegie Mellon. WANT. #gnomedex #
It takes @spot's algorithm 1 hour (!) to render *each frame* of his animated art. Need Moar Faster Cores! Wow. Beautiful. #gnomedex #
Great, humorous info on the intersection between tech and sustainability (on their 44 acre ranch by Spokane) from @moosicornranch #gnomedex #
Just discovered you can unlock an iPad (and probably an iPhone) with the spacebar of a paired Bluetooth keyboard. Neat! #

After 2 days of #Gnomedex iPad use, flipping between Elements, Safari, Twitterrific, and Reeder, I am SO ready for iOS 4 multitasking. #
#Gnomedex speaker @timhwang just made me question the fundamental nature of my online relationships. Are you all bots? #
Unsure why we're ending the very last bit of #Gnomedex EVER with wine tasting (not of interest to all) instead of the hilarious Matt Inman. #
Touching way to end the 10 year legacy of @Gnomedex, with @ChrisPirillo's mom, dad, and brothers up on stage. *sniff* #
So @ChrisPirillo says Gnomedex won't happen without major partnership. I say, take a year off, then let's do it, TedX style. #
Awesome Gnomedex song singalong, courtesy Derek @penmachine Miller, @KatArmstrong, and crew. I'll post video soon. #
Thank you, @ChrisPirillo, for @Gnomedex. To paraphrase @bethgo, it's my home, these are my people. I'll do what I can to keep it alive. #
I don't want to go home… #gnomedex http://gdzl.la/8uiSmh #
