Well, the straight up PSD didn't fit well so I did some rotating and skewing...

Alright, for some reason this reminds me of the phone call I had with my mother Sunday, when we both started talking in really crappy Sean Connery accents. Fabuloush!

If it's a school picture, you KNOW it's Olan Mills! At least, that's the way it was around here. Those folks had a lock on the uncomfortably posed photo market.

uncomfortable pose? looks pretty comfortable to me lol :P

Hi Louis Thanks for the heads up about Lazyfeed. I have tried to register but it needs an invitation code. Can you or anyone in your network please let me know what I should put in? Thanks
- Jane Finch
Very well done, I now have a better understanding of how it works. Anymore invites? Thanks
- Mo Hall
why doesn't Lazyfeed have a feed for FF?
- Thomas Power
Thomas, Lazyfeed's founders are just now getting to understand FriendFeed better. Maybe with time.
- Louis Gray
LazyFeed looks great.! Thanks for this video Louis, super interesting (I like your fast pace too). Would love an invite if you have 1.
- Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
Hi, thanks everyone for your interest in Lazyfeed. We are excited to tell you that we will be releasing more invite codes via Twitter today. To receive your invite, please follow @lazyfeed on twitter and we will DM you an invite code. This invitation will expire midnight PST. Thank you!
- Lazyfeed
Louis, thanks for this wonderful quick tutorial. I am off to experimenting with Lazyfeed now. I wonder how you use it in conjunction with GReader, since I also find you sharing lot of stuff on GReader as well.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
Love lazyfeed so far, but it won't connect with my Twitter acct even after I set up and click connect - only Flicr, etc..Anyone else have this issue.
- Liza + = ?
Liza - I've just tried connecting your twitter to my lazyfeed and it seems to be successfully bringing tags like lazyweb, trip, techkaraoke, etc. Please try again. Thanks.
- Ethan Gahng
Now that is GREAT customer service, Ethan. Thanks.. I want to learn more about lazyweb and ppl interacting from lazyfeed. Seeing it from my google dev friends. Any ideas?
- Liza + = ?
Very nice video here. I will use this to share with all my people. Thanks Louis.

Think Scoble should immediately adopt this as his avatar. Pretty neat list (also not a bad marketing vehicle if people use the badge :)

O'Reilly sent me a review copy a week or so ago. Terrific read thus far. She is the first of the "social media" authors I've read (and that's almost all of them) who actually knew and mentioned that "social media marketing" has its roots in "social media optimization", a term coined by Rohit Bhargava. If I remember, Jason Falls had a lot of good things to say about the book as well.

Boss and I have been plagued by work issues this week. Turns out all of them can be traced in one way or another to the server that died. I hate you Server2. I'm glad your hard drive transplant didn't happen this week: maybe by next week your processor will give out and we'll just have to replace you altogether... I want my cookie now.
bummer! hope things get resolved without too much more hassle
- Adam Sherk
Thank you for the virtual cookie, WoH. I plan on running past the cookie place on the way home, though: virtual just isn't going to cut it today. However, I've got 45 minutes or less until the weekend starts, so that's something!

I hope it will allow for use of a pen/pointing device. Not just finger painting.

I wonder if the alternative October date we've heard about is when an announcement of the Apple Tablet would be made. This would give a chance for pre-sales and possibly launch an App program for the device along with a simulator or SDK. Apple's taken quite awhile to work on the Tablet so it seems like these would be ready sooner than later, but then again, maybe Apple will take it slowly like they did with the iPhone. We'll have to see.
- Loren Heiny
I'm excited about a product like this. My iPod Touch is great for casual viewing but I want something with a bigger screen. My wife is excited she can play Mafia Wars (Facebook variety) from the comfort of the couch as well :-)

Tweak Today is one of the coolest sites I have come across in a long time. The concept is pretty simple: every day users of the site are called on to accomplish a specific mission. Missions are submitted and voted on by the users. The mission with the highest score gets taken from the mission queue and scheduled one day in advance. - http://thenextweb.com/2009...
Oh, I see, people submit them. I just figured it out right before you posted, Mike.
- Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
They did end up with a nice selection of murals for the current mission. Are there any other things like this around? Maybe like Illustration Friday or something?
- Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
Kamilah: I can't think of anything off the top of my head. This site is sort of neat though. Will have to do some digging to see what else is out there :)
- Mike Bracco
"Tweak today" - that doesn't sound at all like a druggie site.
- Andrew C (✓)
Most awesomest line: "Initially due to go live in June, the launch was delayed due to pirate activity." I'm sure the MPAA and RIAA will try to spin it with a different definition of "pirates".
- Andy Bakun
Ok, I have 5,061 subscribers. Seems crazy high for the engagement I see on my stream. Let's see how many of you actually exist around these parts: Comment plz! (Remember when I got called out a few months ago for not participating enough on FF? It worked!)
but I'm not a subscriber :) You can't really know, because as people comment this entry, all their followers get the "friend of a friend" item in their feed. Go figure who among those participants are subscribed to you.
- Jérôme
I have to admit, it's pretty fun to watch you guys comment in real-time. Good thing I have nothing else to do all day. Matthew DeV- yeah, I know, not a perfect system. I guess my point is that FF sub numbers are misleading, there are a lot of DOA accounts!!
- Sarah Lane
Loved you on AOTS1000. How was the Chalula?
- GMar
Could this be another "True or Poo"? ;) j/k How's it going Sarah?
- John Blanton
I feel Marty thinks TWiF is getting to be a real pain in the butt. Maybe you could all convince Leo to move it to San Fran? I'm sure he'd get even better guests/hosts to move to a 24/7 format...?
- Jude
Hello Sarah. I think yours was the first feed I subscribed to when I joined FF.
- Thomas
just so we're clear on this... i'm not commenting because you asked... i'm commenting because i want to
- Chris Heath
Matthew DeV- I'll pass along! Jude- hmm, I'll think about that one. Chris H- FINE! BE THAT WAY!
- Sarah Lane
Well I'm not hanging on every word, but I enjoy your stuff.
- Chris Menning
I am alive and well, how are you doing?
- Gary Oswald
Thanks Sarah. You have a standing invitation to be on our show and just chat about whatever happens on FriendFeed, tech, etc. DM me if you are interested and we will make it happen. (also we have a room/group on FF http://friendfeed.com/ffunder... )

Hurrah! Nice to see you posting here, even if it isn't for anything interesting.
- Kenton
Hullo there...you are still in my main feed... :)
- JA Castillo
John W- oh, I'm sure they exist somewhere, just wondering if it's here, too. ;) Chris M- casual enjoyment is enough for me! Kenton- oh please, this is riveting stuff! (I'm subscribing left and right due to this conversation, so thanks for speaking up and helping me find you!)
- Sarah Lane
Mike N- it counts for a sub from me! Although the first thing I saw was a post about your laptop, your mom, and porn. Let's see how this relationship goes. :)

Yet another try at creating the longest thread on FF? ;)

I'm listening, but I don't know what to say.
- Donald Forth
What's good in the TWiF hood, homeslice?
- Eric Geller
Well, this is certainly a nice hefty thread... but I think I've made the point that clearly the large majority of my followers aren't actually paying attention (for example, my BFF Kim Kardashian). :)
- Sarah Lane
She is just jealous that you get to hang with Martin on Fridays.
- Eric Geller
made the best of day.... who the hell are you?
- NoahDavidSimon
Sarah Lane is the wife of Leo Laporte of Twit Live. Her son is Kevin Rose of Digg fame. And she is only 30.
- Mark
...and I'm supposed to know that? how can her son be of Digg if she is 30?
- NoahDavidSimon
all I know is this woman has issues that people are following her... and I wasn't following her till she had issues. what a paradox! ....wait a minute... she sounds like a feminist!
- NoahDavidSimon
love to listen to your on Twit network. Since I installed FF on computer, I see your streams more. usually I click on links that people post if it seems interesting to me. usually don't comment though. keep it up!
- kent williams
Hello.You've been on my favorites list for a while now. I'm just sparatic about my interaction, and often get distracted by stuff like Sims 3 and WoW when at the computer.
- Tony Miller
Ok, now I *have* to go participate in a Current TV happy hour. Boo hoo, unlucky me. Will check back later. Thx to everybody who reached out so far. It's great to have those of you not already on my radar, on my radar. :)
- Sarah Lane
I'm not in your stream, your not in my stream, and still everything is lively.
- Amit Morson
I am not a subscriber, nor do I have any idea what your normal content is like, but I can imagine that some percentage of your subscribers did so purely because your avatar is an attractive woman (and you have a females name). I'm not saying this to belittle your contributions; just sharing an observation of male behavior. -- huh, I just went and looked at your profile (I had never heard of you). I'll add your celebrity status as another reason people might follow without planning on engaging.
- Bill Rawlinson
Whew! Just catching up on all your lovely comments. Thanks everyone! Now, we're only missing about 4,600 folks. Send out the search party! Kidding, kidding.... I was just really curious as to who was actually around and paying attention. >^__^< <----- my first ASCII cat ever
- Sarah Lane
Thomas, http://friendfeed.com/sarahla... or http://friendfeed.com/sarahla... will have comment boxes at the bottom always so you don't even need to click - opening the entry/item in it's own window is the key (clicking the timestamp like josh haley said will do that) then if you want the clean embed version you just add ?embed=1 to the url, or click the timestamp again - it's that simple

The only way to follow someone is if you follow fewer than 5,061 'people'

Hello from Cambridgeshire, Englandshire. Now, where do I put the stamp on this thing?
- Ben Aldhouse
Terris- no, that's the number of people subscribed to me... I can't imagine following 5,061 people! Think of the real-time scrolling! Aaaah!
- Sarah Lane
Well, it *was* the number of people subscribed to me. A few more now.. hi everyone!
- Sarah Lane
Tell us about the beginning of this FF post grandpa! Well kids, when I was a young man, Sarah Lane posted a question about having five thousand followers... (long old man story) ... and the post survives to this day, in the year 2074. Back when this thread started, the machines hadn't taken over yet...

Welcome to the JUNGLE! I've finally decided on which cloud space to use - JungleDisk - Prime Amazon3 & Rackspace http://www.jungledisk.com/ However, there's a lot of choices out there, how's every one else's experience with "the cloud" been? Which services have you tried? Benefits vs Downsides? etc
The workgroup offering from JD works great. I am using it with 4 boxes at the moment. I've been very happy with S3 so far, but would really like to compare with Rackspace.

we are pretty much 100% on amazon web services right now - when I went looking a year ago it was the best deal around. I might go hunting around later, but right now I totally love the freedom and flexibility of AWS for all my school department computing needs.

AWS A2/A3? comparable price points; myself I'm looking for storage, not websevice

Just signed up for JungleDisk myself. Waiting for my initial 30+ GB backup to finish. I like that I can map a drive to it from any of my machines.
