just spent entirely too long looking for a native OS X app with a save icon on the toolbar… #stilllooking #fb

have to remember that clapping at and/or questioning the TV doesn’t really have any impact…
actually added an event after May to my calendar today! #exciting #mayneedtofly #fb
@GeoShore So I’m ok if I’m driving the public transit? (or is that covered else where?)
@maxey2005 It’s possible to not be backed up with work? :D Now see upside here, can get lost in work and be destracted from the 10 year.
@LadyLaurian congratulations!
Really @maxey2005, you had to do this on a Monday?!? Remind everyone of just how long it’s been 1st thing Monday morning? ;) #fb

@ceeasley21 Also the end of the semester has a way of making the list much shorter.
@ceeasley21 Na, I just graded quizzes, that’s another item down. Of course, I now have “post quiz grades” to add.
MicrosoftPress Think you’re good at scripting…prove it at the 2011 Scripting Games http://bit.ly/h3A4PJ
Productive if slightly long day, lots done, more off the list than on. Still lots to do. #fb
wonder what the largest site ever converted to a @facebook page is/was?
moskovich Your mobile phone has more computing power than all of NASA in 1969. NASA put a man on the moon. We put a bird into pigs.
bluesmoon It takes Goog/Yhoo less time to search the web than it takes Acrobat to search within a single PDF.
Interesting side-effect of program/code obsolesce: have source code, don’t have an Operating System running version of compiler anymore. #fb

I think this week is going to include several late evenings to get the @OmniFocus list back down to a reasonable size. #funtimesahead #fb
“it’s not trash it’s artifacts of productivity” — Me #fb
Well I keep writing tweets about it, and now one of my regular clients has it, so @Twitter on OS X and @Tweed how about doing a list for @’s
Well @OmniFocus, you’re 31 items overdue, but I think that’s going to be it for today. #needtimetodigout
More than once I’ve lost an apple product for several days, only to discover it in bag I’d been carrying around for all those days. #fb
Is it @Charter or @ComedyCentral’s issue that onscreen programing guide reports @TheDailyShow episodes are new this week? #five$forwronginfo
clicked on a banner ad only to get an access denied error page. #FAIL #wasteofmoney #fb
@manogirl Ya, don’t have that problem. Except the few times I have done it at work because the headset was bugging me. #toughforthem
@manogirl I put class on speakers pretty much any time I don’t have to talk & I’m at home. At work my speakers don’t have enough volume.
Conference leadership for #ghc11 is going to have their work cut out for them with all the wonderful submissions showing up on #twitter.

find it odd @twitter’s followers list shows you if you’re following that person, but the following list doesn’t show if they follow you…
@gailcarmichael If you’re doing anything at all, you’re going to make someone unhappy, comes with the territory.
NASA STS-133 was the 39th and final flight for Discovery, which spent 365 days in space, orbited Earth 5,830 times and traveled 148,221,675 miles
Just watched Discovery’s last landing. :/ #fb
today is what day of the week?!?! #WhereDidTheWeekGo #halfgone #fb
So @twitter on the iPhone/iPod will give me a list now when I at someone in a tweet, yay! #abouttime #NowForTheMacClient
anyone have the #gnome3 preview with @gnomeshell running in @ParallelsMac?
listening to some music and slowly getting things off the todo list, not a bad evening. #fb
noticed couple of highway signs recently where the “y”s don’t sit on baseline. This part of the newish standard or lazyness in sign making?
@nicolibrarian You get a special badge and a free t-shirt! Who wouldn’t go for that? Now, take those away from the process and…
@manogirl Personally have found reviewing task list, adjusting for next/urgent tasks & making plan to complete those next day seems to help.
@manogirl there was talk of music and/or audiobooks for helping with that, interesting variation you have. Not sure I know enough lyrics…
@manogirl my problem is usually the getting the brain to shut down once I go to bed variety. Issue with not going to bed is real but smaller
while sitting around with a group at #gslisui, talked turned to task/schedule management and sleep. Everyone reported having sleep problems.
had really good conversation after class today about technology innovation removing social barriers for content access #ereaders #audiobooks
@ZicklePop Does “podcast host” pay reasonably well? #benefits?#endoftermappointment
@summerMistine Me too! Also happy about 1) new wiper blades that helped make it possible and 2) friends that care enough to check on me.
Posting this entirely for @ZicklePop, figured he’d get a kick out of @twitter’s suggestions for me this evening. http://twitpic.com/46nrk4
aleksk what is web science? @jahendler says it’s studying the engineering & instrumentation of the WWW + the emergent social effects #webnetsci
@maxey2005 Yay for you! :( for me…
@jilleduffy that whole stereotype of @twitter, is so overhyped. I hardly get that type of stuff in my feed. Think you had a great reply!

FYI: singing along to John Mayer busting down doors to a 10 year reunion is way less empowering when reunion is months, not years away. #fb
I guess it’s probably in line with the others in the series, @HudsonEnt’s Deca Sports 3 kayaking isn’t bad, but had such high hopes for it.

My technology seems to like to have issues right before #gslisui #leep weekend. Phone got in on the fun this time.
the twitter spam for that last tweet should be interesting.
“If I want to install a trojan on my iPad, I should be able to” —Me #fb
Of course I’m still left questioning why I keep having @palm phones going out. #willbephone3 #sinceSept
Having fun with @VZWSupport, think this last phone call may have things on the right path now. :/ Have to call back in a couple of hours.
@VZWSupport looks like you stopped following me. There was someone else on the phone, will call 800 number.
I guess the upside of not expecting much re: @VZWSupport at the store is that they can both fail and meet expectations.
Not the usual helpful service I get from calling @VZWSupport, looks like I’m off to the store… #deadpreplus :(
this is a non-ideal health state for both teaching and traveling :(
it’s fun little bunny trails like the one this afternoon that get me temporarily thinking I’d enjoy running mail services. #thenitpasses #fb
