@kalinh I'm focusing primarily on the community cohesiveness value of music in transit, and nurturing talent. Not abt music in the least.

Hearing the @sfbart "transit 2.0" story. Love their "Developer Resources" site.
exhausted from lots of connecting, dreaming and pseudo-hacking (just like I pseudo-code) at #vandatahack. Thanks to hosts @vanarchives !
knitting is turning out to be just the non-screen smooth landing to help me get to sleep.

@cdemwell It depends on whether your perspective is pure user utility or peripheral context effects. I'm a little obsessed w/ the latter.
@cdemwell Yes, and searchable, and permalinkable / persistent, and for me and I assume most others, much more public. Also, SMSable.
Live music from a local musician at my neighbourhood Starbucks tonight. Kinda nice, though I was also sorta enjoying my quality ohbijou...

@iheartcities Me too! I flipped through the book when I was there this summer and was hoping one of the libraries would have it...no luck :(
