- @Jmartens Where in Beaverton did Obama end up going? #
- @jmoriarty @billpearson @ajaymm Come to the Twitter Boot Camp next week. We’ll get EVERYONE using Twitter. It’s going to rock! #
- @SharonG This particular Twitter Boot Camp is for a particular audience, but I’ll likely start doing open-invitation ones soon. Stay tuned! #
- @geekygirldawn @selenamarie Yeah, GoDaddy can go DIAF right about now. Thanks, Selena, for straightening it out! You rock! #
- Quote of the day (from a discussion on how tired the term "social media" is): "It’s not social if someone owns it." #
- I’d point you to a blog post I just wrote (with a funny video!) on how I’m starting to hate the term "social media", but mediatemple is down #
- Mediatemple’s up for the moment, so here’s that post on "I’m starting to hate the term social media": http://tinyurl.com/5tvtgq #
- @rodfather I’m relieved that you still follow me. Glad I changed my tagline to "storyteller" from "social media evangelist". #
- @rodfather LOL if I ever do, you have permission to shoot me and take all of my toys. #
- @bethlubov TweetScan is down? Bummer. Try using Summize.com instead. #
- @skyler I scoff in the general direction of your despisal of my hatred of social media.
# - @skyler I’m not on GoDaddy. 1and1 for names, mediatemple for hosting. Maybe shopping around if they don’t get their act together. #
- Turns out the Beaverton software company where Obama made his surprise appearance was Vernier, not Inspiration. http://tinyurl.com/5m8nug #
- @jmartens You totally called Vernier. Good guess! #
- @timdorr Thanks. I checked out ASO before, when I was shopping for hosting. Can’t remember why I didn’t pick it. Will look into it! #
- Oh, fun. Nvidia’s CEO has been ranting about Intel to CNET again: http://tinyurl.com/6mrprt #
- @sumwan Oh, I don’t. Sometimes I wish our CEO wasn’t so mild-mannered, though, so we could see some real sparks fly.
# - @Jerry_Makare false advertising! I came over to Merlot to partake in the Nerf warfare, and you weren’t there! #
- ZOMG Vernier Software, where Obama was this morning, is literally about 2 blocks from where I used to live in Beaverton. Small world! #
- A dozen nice photos of Obama’s Beaverton visit from the Oregonian on Flickr: http://tinyurl.com/6ydbnz #
- @timdorr Do shared hosting accts on A Small Orange have SSH/shell access? Can’t find it listed on the site. #
- @timdorr How well does ASO handle WordPress? I run about a dozen WP sites, mostly low traffic, with one that gets about 5000 hits/day. #
- @timdorr Thanks for your answers, BTW. It’s looking more and more likely that you’re getting a new customer. #
- @Jerry_Makare My life would be incomplete if a Dance War between Intel’s and Nvidia’s CEOs happened, and I wasn’t there to shoot video. #
- @timdorr I definitely run caching. #
- @billpearson Would love to get a debrief of that wiki conversation. #
- @kellyrfeller Not big brother. Mashups that enable stuff like this: http://pulseofpdx.com and this: http://pulseofintel.tweetpeek.com #
- @kellyrfeller If you’d prefer to opt out of the @pulseofintel conversation stream, feel free to block it. You have control of your tweets. #
- @kellyrfeller That’s a good point. Twitter is open by default - anyone can follow you. Do you vet each one of your followers? #
- @kellyrfeller I just assume Twitter is a public broadcast medium, and don’t say anything I wouldn’t say to the whole world. #
- @kellyrfeller Sun is great. It’s nice and cool, too. Thanks! Bummed I’m not going to see Iron Man, though. #
- Man, @steverubel really brings the flow. I’ve had a ton of new comments on my "i hate social media" post since he tweeted about it. #
- @memathews She knows how to block/protect. We were just discussing the creepy potential for HR Twitter stalking, etc. #
- @memathews Busy tonight (no babysitting, either), and I want to see Iron Man first, but go forth and Tweetup for Speed Racer! Have fun! #
- Oh man. Emma barfed ALL OVER @rachelbancroft at Baja Fresh a while ago. It was epic. I felt so bad for both of them. Now, home and baths. #

- @psteinb It’s about time we got a blog post out of you! #
- @psteinb Deoends on where "ISC" means. What URL, specifically? There’s no separate blog for ISC that I know of. #
- @billpearson I find a happy compromise - I tweet about work. #
- @SharonG @gwalter Um, the AmazonMP3 Download automatically adds purchased MP3s to iTunes, Windows Media, etc. I love it buy there frequently #
- @psteinb Yes, you can apply any and all relevant categories to a blog post. #
- THe Aiptek Action HD video camera has arrived! 1080p@30fps, 720p@60fps, records to H.264 .MOV files. Hope I’ll get time to play tonight! #
- TV news just said Barack Obama is going to be at a private event at a software company in Beaverton in the AM. Anyone know where? #
- @turoczy AP said its an "educational" software company. Guesses? #
- @turoczy might not hurt to drop by in the AM. News said private event, but you never know. #
- @turoczy I have an almost 2 year old you can borrow if you need one. #
- @jmartens where is Inspiration Software in bvtn? Never heard of them. #
- Played a little Mario Kart last night. I SUCK at the bikes. Can’t keep them off the walls. And I keep getting killed online. Embarrassing #

- @billpearson I can guarantee that buying every Intel employee an iPhone would have a (positive) impact on the quality of MIDs. Great idea! #
- @psteinb It would only need to support Exchange Activesync, which is built into the Exchange servers. I used to use it under pilot. Simple. #
- I really, really wish I could stay logged in to MediaTemple via SSH for more than 5 seconds. I need to tar up some files for @selenamarie… #
- I don’t know whether to blame Intel’s flaky proxies, or mediatemple. I’ll blame both, just to be safe. #
- @Skawtnyc It’s not timing out, the connection just goes dead after a random interval. Then I have to try 2 or 3 times to get back in. *sigh* #
- On the upside, I’m getting good and typing "tar -cvzf igniteportland.com.tar.gz ./*" as fast as I can. #
- Yay! I made it! That’s almost as exciting as winning on Mario Kart! #
- @psteinb I have no idea if Intel IT plans to support the iPhone or not. But when the 2.0 OS drops next month, a TON of us will want it. #
- @andrewhyde Do you mean that Twitter Tools posts are having blank categories? I never had that problem. I have duplicate post problems. #
- @andrewhyde I was messing around with assigning a different category, and excluding it from my feed. Hope you find a fix! #

- The only person who friended me back so far is @marusin. The rest of you are slackers. Look up my code via @wii. #
- Even better, register YOUR code with @wii (http://wiitransfer.com/codes) so we can easily find each other. Love that service! #
- Thank you to everyone who has shared kind words with me in the last 12 hours or so. I love you guys! #
- Here’s why I can’t make myself stop using Twitteriffic, and switch to Twhirl, Alert Thingy, or Spaz - it uses Growl for notifications. #
- I want to love the other AIR-based Twitter clients, but Growl notifications are so pretty! (Especially with the iPhone theme.) #
- @funkatron I’ll install whatever you tell me to. #
- Yay! The new Google Reader Shared Item Notes get preserved perfectly in my linkblog (which runs on soup.io) http://linkblog.joshbancroft.com #
- @verso It’s a close call between Tumblr and soup. Soup lets me have more than 5 feeds. It doesn’t auto-tuncate stuff. It’s ajaxy and pretty. #
- @tokerud Honestly, Google Reader killed del.icio.us for me YEARS ago. I haven’t used it in ages. The new Notes are just icing on the cake. #
- @funkatron How well would that work behind an HTTP proxy (like me at work)? I’ll help you test it if you want. #
- @influxx You can make Twhirl not QUITE so ugly - pick a darker theme, change the font to Verdana 12 (I think). But Twitterific IS prettier. #
- Another thing I love about Twitterrific (that other clients could copy easily): Cmd+2 to reply and Cmd+D to direct message someone. #
- And something that bugs me about soup.io: it takes hours, if not a day or so, to update the RSS feed that it generates. Boo! #
- @funkatron Yes, I know. But Spaz isn’t ugly to begin with, like Twhirl. #
- @RichSPK It’s not that different keyboard shortcuts are better, per se, but that they’re DIFFERENT. Muscle memory is hard to relearn. #
- @tokerud Do whatever works best for you - delicious is still an awesome service. Competition among these is good for us! #
- @billpearson You’re right - my web connection just blows today. I hate it when the Intel proxies get cranky like this! #
- Dear Twitter: Isn’t there a keyboard shortcut in iTunes to jump directly to the Search box? It’s really annoying to have to mouse up there. #
- @Irek You’re right - Tab does sort of work to get to the search box in iTunes. Depends on where focus is to start. Thanks! #
- What other web awards are out there, besides the Webbys, WebVisionary, and SXSW/Adobe? #
- @eeUS Thanks! @influxx thanks for FWA, too. I’ll check it out. Keep em coming! #
- @Jerry_Makare Ooh, that looks interesting. I’d love to see the ISN Take Five video site win some awards! #
- @kellyrfeller The new Intel.com doesn’t work at all (past the "Pick a Country" page) on BlackBerries and my Kindle. #
- @kellyrfeller I’m also told it doesn’t work at all if you have Flash disabled. #
- Whoa. FriendFeed picked up a Google Reader Note and turned it into a FriendFeed comment. That was cool - @scobleizer, did you hear that? #
- @kellyrfeller @sharong I tested the new Intel.com on my iPhone, and it actually works pretty well, even without Flash. #
- @ahockley Oh? How should Intel use Silverlight. Do tell! #
- @psteinb has swiped my little Aiptek video camera, and is going around ambushing people in their cube’s for interivews. #
- Including me - I was the first one he ambushed. #
- Oooh. @chartier sez that Brightkite’s iPhone version of the site is finally available. I’ll have to to play with it. #
- @smb Look at http://friendfeed.com/jabancroft/comments That comment on the Little Brother item came from a note I wrote in GReader. #
- @smb Yeah, it would be cool if GReader did it. But since FriendFeed does it, you could just comment over there. #
- The BrightKite iPhone website works. It’s pretty. But I want it to grab my location from the phone, and offer 1-click checkin. I’m greedy! #
- Hey Twitter - how do I replace the audio track of a Quicktime movie using Quicktime Pro? I’ve extracted and editing, now I need to replace. #
- A ha! "Add to Selection and Scale" does it! Woo hoo! Now I can fix audio tracks in Levelator! Me= happy. #
- @Jerry_Makare You gotta come see this audio wizardry we’re doing. #
- @annierodkins Prune your Twitter list mercilessly. Go through it, and remove anyone where you have to think "who is this person?". Trust me. #
- Wow. My whole Twitter UI (web) is in Japanese, all of a sudden, too! #
- @jmoriarty what was the Ignite Phoenix URL? I haven’t heard of one there. You should do one! #
- @jmoriarty you’re right - that doesnt look anything like an Ignite or pecha kucha event. You should still do one. Just call it smthng else. #
- @chippy try QuickTime Pro for editing that MP4 file. Its simple, cheap ($30), and works WAY better than Windows Movie Maker. #

- Something I find far more entertaining/amusing than I should: watching marketing people scheme to exploit "social media". #
- @kellyrfeller I’m not TRYING to be negative, but the sheer amount of marketing buzzwords, and complete lack of talk of humans is dismaying. #
- @kellyrfeller "There is NO demand for marketing messages." I’m not anti business or anti marketing. I’m pro Cluetrain. #
- @kellyrfeller And yes, I DO remember the web before there were ANY corporate sites and ads. Do you? What was it like? Was it worth anything? #
- @Britopian @kellyfeller I put my emphasis on CONNECTING with REAL HUMANS. That’s what I value. What do I do that you consider exploitation? #
- I just said: I’m NOT anti-marketing. But there’s a right way and wrong way to do it. Right = respect and connect with humans. #
- @kellyrfeller I’d love to debate you on this. #
- @Britopian But everything you write, on blog or Twitter, it seems, is all about marketing and "social media". What’s social about that? #
- My problem with marketers abusing "social media" is that they treat it as "just another channel for messages". The miss the FUNDAMENTAL diff #
- The Internet is the most powerful tool ever invented for AVOIDING marketing messages. Spam filters. Ad blockers. The web != captive audience #
- The old marketing ways of hammering people on the head with messages doesn’t work on the web. You’ve got to find new ways. Give up control. #
- @Britopian But do you realize that when all you blog about is that, you’re talking AT the conversation? #
- @Britopian You use all the right buzzwords, but buzzwords set off people’s BS detectors. #
- If anyone is interested, compare and contrast what Intel is doing in "social media" with what Zappos.com is doing. Let me know what you find #
- I’m not giving enough praise. There are lots of people in Intel marketing that DO get it. Coincidentally, they’re the ones on Twitter. #
- @kellyfeller Buzzwords make you sound not human. Real people don’t talk in buzzwords. You don’t talk in buzzwords all the time, do you? #
- @kellyfeller @britopian Honest question: Have you read The Cluetrain Manifesto? #
- @kellyrfeller You can read Cluetrain, in its entirety, for free online at http://www.cluetrain.com. It really will be worth the effort. I promise. #
- @kellyfeller re: buzzwords, go listen to this song and see if you can identify the buzzwords: http://tinyurl.com/pnpj8 Thank me later. #
- For the record, @jonathancoulton is my hero, and "Re:Your Brains" should be Intel’s theme song. #
- @britopian Are you asking if I’ve read Cluetrain? I make it a point to read it at least once a year. I buy copies to give away to people. #
- I’m going to set up a podcast/audio debate between myself, @kellyfeller, @britopian, @annierodkins, and whoever else wants to join. Fun! #
- @Britopian LOL! I was asked to write that post, for the launch of the Mobility blog. On short notice. And they wanted to approve it. #
- @Britopian Some background on that post: http://tinyurl.com/4nslqa And the whole thing kind of fell apart. #
- @Britopian re: "two comments waiting" - I responded to @thomashan via Twitter in minutes. And like I said, I stopped writing there. #
- @Britopian Are you poring through everything I’ve ever written, to find examples to throw in my face? #
- @Britopian Yes, he’s @skawtnyc on Twitter. #
- Listening to the new free NIN album, "The Slip". Trent’s experiements in music distro have made me a fan. Good stuff. #

- @turoczy LOL best answer yet. Thanks. #
- m.twitter is now missing the "older" link. So no paging via API OR web. Great. Who needs to read more than the last 10 tweets? #
- @memathews Mario Kart Wii has internet multiplayer. It’s very robust, and very fun. We should race sometime. Got a friend code? #
- @marusin I haven’t been online in Mario Kart since Tuesday. The Wii at work has wireless disabled, and it’s been a busy week at home. #
- @jschultz WebVisions should be cool this year. And you should come, because I’m speaking on a panel with Ward Cunningham and others. #
- @jschultz Yes, the topic of the panel is open source. I’m also a judge for the WebVisionary awards, which should be fun. #
- @sharong In my defense, that Ashlee Simspon song is from the soundtrack of an awesome game - Elite Beat Agents. Do I get to maintain cred? #

- Today is No Pants Day. It seems that Twitter celebrated a day early, by dropping its pants yesterday. How is today going to be? #
- It looks like Intel PR in France has joined Twitter: @IntelPRFrance. Wonder what they’ll have to say? #
- Twitter seems to be pretty stable so far today. No API timeouts, no 500 error pages. So far. #
- @Britopian You still have two bogus feed links on your new site. Just get rid of the RSS 0.92 and Atom links in the header. #
- @Britopian There’s no need for multiple feed formats if you’re using FeedBurner. In fact, mult. feed formats are unnecessary, period. #
- @Britopian You could fix it yourself. It’s in header.php. Don’t be afraid of a little code, man! #
- Want to know how a company SHOULD do "social media" (ick, I hate that term)? Go read @marshallk’s post on how Zappos.com is doing it. #
- Here’s @marshallk’s RWW post on Zappos.com and "social media": http://tinyurl.com/6f4lx2 #
- @davest That’s why you should be using Firefox, instead of IE. #
- @Britopian Look for "link rel=alternate". Leave the FeedBurner one, dump the RSS .92 and Atom ones. #
- @davest You’d be surprised at how well Firefox works on the intranet. I’ll help you. There’s a "Firefox at Intel" page on Intelpedia, too. #
- @kellyrfeller What they’re doing makes me want to go buy something at zappos.com, just to support them. #
- @kellyrfeller How about just "media?" "Social Media" is vague enough as to be meaningless. Just say what you mean, and be specific! #

- I’m sure I’m being hypocritical, though, and that I’ve annoyed others with loud conversations before. I guess that’s what headphones are for #
- I guess I should have just put in my earbuds and tuned it out, instead of complaining. So that’s what I just did! #
- @ejacqui Yes, Twitter via Twitteriffic has been off and on for me all day so far. Not fun. #
- ZOMG "@iraglass is now following you on Twitter" *swoon* #
- @davechen @ejacqui Lots of people complaining. It’s pretty clear the Twitter API is taking a nap today… #
- @oleoptene Never got many responses to the "old enough to Twitter" InstaPoll. I think you guys are the leaders in that area. #
- @oleoptene Although I look forward to teaching my kids how to Twitter (with supervision) as soon as they can read and type. #
- Here’s an opportunity for Intel’s HPC/scaling/performance/software gurus to show off and do some good. Help Twitter fix their darn problems! #

- Intel has been doing a 500 person pilot of Macs for over a year now. I’ve been using Macs at Intel for a little longer, spreading the word. #
- "Steve Jobs doesn’t need a sales force because he already has one: employees like the ones in my company." #
- @lyzadanger I have limited powers, but I’ll see if there’s anything I can do. #
- @rodfather Got a link to the new Aiptek camera? I just got approval to buy a second Go-HD for our group, might get the new one if it’s good. #
- @rodfather Thanks for the heads up on the new 1080p Aiptek camera. Going to try to get that one instead. Only available at Wal-Mart, tho. #
