Swinging by Blockbuster to browse movies to add to my Netflix queue. Renting then making a special trip to return movies seems dumb now
There's a "Butterfly Effect 3"?Seriously? On the other hand "Blood: The Last Vampire" looks good.
RT @davewiner: Android syncs all of your Google contacts by default, let's fix that- http://droidie.com/2009... <= this behavior is never a good idea
There's a rumor I might be attending the real-time crunch up at http://realtimecrunchupsf.eventbrite.com - anyone else going?
Thinking about the claim the feeds/streams will kill email. Suspect may replace coupon offers & forwarded memes via email but not much else
*sigh* I meant Iran not Iraq in http://twitter.com/Carnage...
In http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... @paulcarr reminds us that despite the hype, the Iraq election hoopla on Twitter didn't cause any change.
Also, I have to say turning your avatar green was the emptiest and most pointless gesture of solidarity yet. Another "support our troops"
Love the sneaky way Zynga folks hide scams from press & Facebook team by serving them different ads from regular users - http://bit.ly/KTRHA
Looks like the connection between FriendFeed and Twitter is no longer real-time. Wonder who is to blame?
I think it's been that way for a while. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
It has been wildly inconsistent lately. Sometimes it is right on time, other times there is a major delay. - Rob Diana
Paul Bucheit wrote that they no longer had access to Twitter's firehose, so it sounds like it may have had something to do with Facebook's acquiring them, but don't quote me on that. - Jorge Escobar
it's weird that twitter signed a deal to give access to google and bing, but friendfeed seems to have lost that deal. - gregory
Paul or Bret: what is the latest status please? - Steve Gillmor
The latest status? They're busy working valiantly on mincing the glory of their FriendFeed UI into the horror show that is Zuckerberg's Facebook UI. - Akiva Moskovitz
from here to Twitter things are going live - Johni Fisher
It was mentioned previously as being an issue with Twitter. They are polling now. - Louis Gray
what? It's OK now? Or is it true that "Paul Bucheit wrote that they no longer had access to Twitter's firehose, so it sounds like it may have had something to do with Facebook's acquiring them, but don't quote me on that. - Jorge Escobar" - - Steve Gillmor
I am trying to locate the conversation where he said this. But it's clear that Twitter is not giving FF the firehose for *some* reason. And they still aren't. - Jorge Escobar
"The Twitter issue is a separate problem Jorge -- our realtime feed from them is gone, but we hope to get it restored soon. - Paul Buchheit" on Oct 26, 2009 http://friendfeed.com/paul... - Micah Wittman
Parse that as you will. - Micah Wittman
Awesome Micah, I was going nuts for a while. So without going to speculation what do you make of "Twitter's realtime feed from them is gone"? Is it scalability issues? But Google and Bing have no problems? - Jorge Escobar
It's speculation, but I think it's Twitter saying "Ooopsy, now how did that happen? We'll put Top Men on it." and a Friendfeed Alum with "we hope to get it restored" as technically true, but belying that they know or suspect it's a TWTR business decision dragging-of-the-feet and not merely technical. But this can all be cleared up with an official statement :) Maybe I missed it - if so I apologize for wild speculation. - Micah Wittman
Thanx Micah, Jorge. We'll wait for the update from Paul or Bret. - Steve Gillmor
Sounds good :) - Micah Wittman
I wasn't seeing updates from Twitter to Friendfeed for 12 hours, but a manual refresh works ok. It is interesting to note the differences in 'real time' for Friendfeed, Twitter and FaceBook they all behave differently - only one of them seems to be 'real' real time -\ - Chris Loft

[Blog Post] Does OAuth Have a Dark Side? http://bit.ly/4ERqU1
The prospect of a Verizon iPhone appears poised to deflate Droid sales this holiday season. - http://www.appleinsider.com/article...
wife decided against buying some Ed Hardy stuff for son since the brand = Jon Gosselin aka douche bag. I'm wearing Ed Hardy today. FML.
Trying to come up with an opinion on 'Dark Side of OAuth' article at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009... -should permissions be revoked on password change?
I think they probably should. It seems more consistent to revoke access. Plus, you are changing your password because of unauthorized access they may have authorized other apps via OAuth. - Nick Lothian
I think that the change password flow should include an option to revoke access from all third-party applications. Blocking unauthorized access is not the only reason why people change their password. - Gary Burd
+1 Gary. Hint: check the FriendFeed change password flow after you've authorized a 3rd party application. It includes a checkbox to revoke permissions. - Benjamin Golub

Even more surprising than @dondodge is that Microsoft laid off @OffbeatAriel, she did the http://www.microspotting.com blog
Liked because it's important, not because I like it. - Matt Cutts
I thought Ariel's blog said she is to start Maternity Leave, kinda a low blow offloading just before that. - Travis Koger
Lame attempt to call BS on Verizon's iDon't ads at http://www.suntimes.com/technol... - I do agree that "iDon't allow open development" was meaningless
I don't want @arrington's head to blow up but damn and double damn - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
I think the proper phrase is "damn, double damn and bull damn". - Gary Burd
RT @arrington Microsoft Loses Don Dodge. This Is A Huge Mistake http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... <= wow, I agree 100%. Laying off @dondodge is crazy
RT @inafried: Microsoft cuts 800 more jobs... That's 5,800 jobs cut since January. http://news.cnet.com/8301-13... <= guess MiniMSFT rumors were right

Nice, Quicken Online to be shut down and replaced by Mint - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... <= that's how you get value out of an acquisition
Wow that was fast for Quicken to be replaced by Mint. - Travis Koger
Twitter lists as a way to see what conference attendees are saying = good. Lists as another way to measure your "Internet manhood" = lame
