You know, you could have just started feeding in your tweets here and achieved the same, right? Or would that have been too subtle?
- Mr. Gunn
http://twitter.com/glitterpoet Don't mean to offend but it's usually not religious. Porn, drinking,dancing, music,makeup....I still do healing work. I just don't talk about it much anymore.
- Gabrielle
My twitter stream is the typical... random thought bubbles, food porn pics, and shared items relating to technology, politics, and $$$. http://twitter.com/sean808080 is where you find me. Oh and I like unicorns and fairy dust.

"For what it's worth, I left NYC for SV in early 2006 because at that point NY just didn't feel it could sustain a really viable tech startup and associated community whose ambition wasn't quick flip.

"I can't recommend Zamansky highly enough. Definitely reach out to him! He fought for, and got, intro CS to become a required course for all freshmen at Stuy. As a result, a whole world of students got introduced to and excited about CS."

TweetDeck for sures! I just couldn't get into the interface for Seesmic Desktop.
- Mathew™ aka Youngblood
I prefer the web or FriendFeed most of the time. I haven't used seesmic but did have tweetdeck a while back and liked it
- Wang Yip
Still using Twhirl, because I mainly use it to scan links and random info from friends, the filter is awesome, but I stick to FF most of the time.
- Jimminy, CoG of FF
Seesmic Web, 'cause anything AIR sucks the memory out of my 'puter
- Jorge Escobar
For now, I'm using Seesmic Desktop. It won out over TweetDeck when TweetDeck sucked with groups. I don't think that's the case anymore though. Early features = long term customer.
- Seth Blank
I wish FF was a viable option but it lacks the features of the dedicated Twitter apps and, of course, if you Twitter friends don't use FF then it's not much use.
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol: I used a Brizzly invite that was weeks old that I found on a FF search and it worked, so it might be worth searching rather than waiting.
- Matt G
OK, I'm sure I got an invite a while back but didn't use it...
- Kol Tregaskes
tweetdeck and web - i also tried seesmic but prefer tweetdeck for the short urls info preview
- Barbara R. S.
Twitterfox (Now called Echofon) and Web plus some Greasemonkey scripts...
- Jackie
Seesmic on desktop and SimplyTweet on iPhone. Once was Tweetdeck on both
- Roberto
That's what open microblogger should be. Twitter should be an implementation of that, not the other way around. It should be decentralized OR they should get their act together OR they should be purchased by someone who will.
- Louis Gray
love the background Louis...the number of people that must have tried clicking on your dock...(including me). :)
- Zee.
TweetDeck is still working for me though
- Sarah Perez
503s have been driving me nuts, too. FF seems to have enough of a user base to keep us amused without getting bogged down/timing out/crashing.
- Jolie O'Dell
people are looting stores around the world in protest
- Allen Stern
I don't know about you guys, but I constantly have the phrase "We're having an earthqu-" typed into my Twitter box so I can be first to post it just by hitting return.
- Louis Gray
Jesse, I'm trying to pick on the framework underneath. But, I actually don't know if they're still messing with Rails.
- Jason Nunnelley
Twitter's problem is an issue of priority, if you consider their downtime a failure. I don't. I think it's working out just fine for them. The more they go down, the more people realize they're addicted and continue to use the service. They've almost proven downtime doesn't hurt growth.
- Jason Nunnelley
Jason, I think that's a mistake for them to have that attitude. I use Twitter less and less the more they go down, and the more of these shenanigans they keep pulling, both as a developer and user
- Jesse Stay
Jesse, not to be a jerk (and I know I'm a broken record), but I assure you they don't care.
- Jason Nunnelley
Jason, that's okay - I'm a broken record in trying to get them to care. :-) I do know they're listening though (I've been on a panel with Doug Williams and Ryan Sarver, and chat with Alex and others frequently via e-mail), and they'll apply the things that make the most sense to them, or at least that they're allowed to implement by management and their investors.
- Jesse Stay
My hope is my "complaints" are constructive though. I've included a lot of information and suggestions with those complaints, so they can take them as they please - it's not my business in the end, but I'll share the knowledge I have at least.
- Jesse Stay
Maybe I should use the Twitter page less and TweetDeck or Seesmic more...
- Dennis Jernberg
Dennis, it's an API vs. web interface toss up. There's no doubt their biggest problem is with the web interface, but I've had API fail also. So long as you just want to read tweets, the API seems to be the best route, meaning Seesmic/TweetDeck, etc. seem to work best.
- Jason Nunnelley
You are so down to earth. Pun...hee. I am beat, so may try to do bit of shut eye before I determine if I can venture out for dinner. Not looking good now.
- Liza + = ?
Hah, no worries. Probably gonna call it an early night anyway.
- Seth Blank
It goes to class V level 40, I believe
- Seth Blank
Sorry for all the assassinations, you're great exp, no threat, and you're not losing any money or weapons to me, so I'm not stealing anything ;-)
- Seth Blank
It doesn't take very long to get to level 30 btw, just hit the top task every time.
- Kol Tregaskes
I clicked it because I was BORED with the game.
- Seth Blank
Quick tip or at least something to try before you turn Elite. How about selling everything you own, all your houses, etc. and transferring all your money to another user, switch to Elite then transfer the money back?
- Kol Tregaskes
And no I didn't do this, I thought about it *afterwards*. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
@koltregaskes Yeah... I had the same idea *after* I erased all assets, lol. Oh well. Maybe for class II elite. ;-)
- Czar
But where is the advantage or addition for being an Elite?
- Kol Tregaskes
@koltregaskes You have a nifty yellow title next to your name in the assassinate page. Other then this, IDK.
- Czar
+1 Carlos, it doesn't feel like they really thought things through as to the overall development of the game
- Wang Yip
From 1 to level 17 has only taken a day btw, so pretty quick.
- Kol Tregaskes
Heh, and the SpamMaster "game" unfurls! Yay!
- Tyson Key
My quick tip above is not very quick as you can only transfer £736,000 a day from one account to another, so if you have £4m or so it's going to day a few days. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Welcome to the club, so are you finding you aren't getting much from successful assassinations now? I've given up and just do the high-paying task.
- Kol Tregaskes
Yeah, assassinations are useless. I have every safehouse, so I get about $6k/turn and make roughly $1mil every 1/3-1/2 a day. It all just goes in the bank. Buying items seems useless because they just get stolen. I'm waiting until I can buy 100 stealth armored cars. That'll be in about two years.
