"Pretty good chance I was also doing acid and smoking reefer too. But those aren't quite as obvious as drinking wine. And as I reported -- I stole the wine from my dad, he wasn't a beer drinker, and I thought, even then (for other reasons) that hard liquor was pretty unclassy." - Dave Winer

Implements the "xSocial" namespace as described here: http://scripting.com/stories... - Dave Winer

"Buzz is a funny thing, it might have been luck or the ads or Motorola. Timing matters too and the sense that it's going to be a while before Apple ships an exciting new iPhone" - Dave Winer

"Click on the name of the list at thetop of the page" - Dave Winer

New announcement for the River2 home page. - Dave Winer

"Oy. It turns out I need your email address not username. Sorry for the runaround." - Dave Winer

The microSD card is at the top of the battery compartment. Unfortunately, you have to remove the battery in order to access / replace the SD card. That said, it comes with a 16GB microSD, which is nice. - Tudor Bosman

"Maybe I should have made the headline -- "For the application I'm thinking about if there were a CLI for Twitter I wouldn't have to subject the user to OAuth" But somehow I hoped they would read the story, so I chose a snappier and shorter headline." - Dave Winer

Yea, until you try to access data while you're on a call - Steve Bostedor

"That was my idea. Hard to say, my eyes are only 54 years old, but they're not in great shape and I had no trouble reading the screen. The only way to tell is to try it out, I guess. Dave" - Dave Winer

"Thanks for the tips. Is there a good website or book to read about Android from a user point of view? There's a lot of culture to absorb all at once. A cheat sheet would be nice! :-)" - Dave Winer

Follow up on the Garbage Girl in the next RBTN? - Dave Winer from Bookmarklet

"Thanks for the tip, now a dumb question -- where is the "notifications shade?" I've been looking for that for other purposes. Also how do I get it to stop chiming at me when an email comes in -- I get a lot of email! :-)" - Dave Winer

"It needs to be available for everyone if we're to build on it. So I don't want to sound unreasonable, but until everyone uses Firefox, no -- that's not good enough. It has to be a website, imho." - Dave Winer

"Any work in this area should work *exactly* like these commands. We need some more now, and it appears Twitter is focusing elsewhere... Prior art is essential." - Dave Winer

"I don't see the SD card. Here's a picture of the Droid with the battery removed: http://www.flickr.com/photos...... Am I missing something??" - Dave Winer

Adapt to optimizations in xml.rss.getFeedItems and xml.getHtmlLinks. - Dave Winer

Add optional parameter, adrtext. If not nil, use that text instead of reading it from the url. This saves multiple readings if we're sniffing at the text to figure out what it is. - Dave Winer

Text for the bookmarklet page. - Dave Winer

Commented a section that checks referrers if you're accessing it on the same machine. I don't understand what it's protecting against, but the policy of River2 is to give full power to the user on the local machine. He has it anyway (he can go into the ob - Dave Winer
