"All Hallows Eve is almost upon us and – lucky us – this means that we will soon be feasting on more than candy and brains. No, not candy brains! – A new Halloween Special from The Guild! Details are hard to glean at the moment but I have managed to obtain some behind-the-scenes photos that I can share with you here:..."

I can't wait to see this! From the other photos I've seen it's going to be hilarious!

Yo, @Jesse, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but I just got to say that Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time!
- Mike Fruchter
Acessible -- it's all about the mobile apps. :)

But Mona, what are you doing all day that you have to be mobile? Where exactly are you? Remember, the rainy season is coming soon in Seattle. You'll be inside most of the day on the computer. :)
- Cristo
Jesse said that because I said it first. :)
- Louis Gray
Jesse: Louis Gray is a nice guy but blogging about a blogging conference? So boring!
- Robert Scoble
Robert, yeah, he's a jerk :) He should be writing about something like Web 3.0 instead
- Jesse Stay
Now, now, Robert. I got a lot of positive feedback for the SXSW coverage this spring. You can skip my posts when they hit your Twitter stream, but I'm here to do what I should do. See you tomorrow. :)
- Louis Gray
hear hear to that FFCode we had him as our guest speaker in London last month he blew the crowd away. To me he's the best in the Valley. Even the Scoble's now chasing him.
- Thomas Power
true...and Scoble himself says that...my earlier comment appeared two times on my screen so i deleted one of them but it was just one and it was "Thomas well for you i know it :) Louis is a great guy" and well respected too
- ffcode
jesse - you are banned from ff for one day - and you can't wear your disqus or sm shirts either.

Microblogging has "blog" right there in the name, what's gotten Louis all riled up? Sheesh!
- Daniel J. Pritchett
i would say, save the blogging for later when you have time to actually write something meaningful rather than just blogging for the sake of it, that's what twitter is for, small nuggets of info that you want to share but that is not necessarily enough to blog about
- Loc
Sorry @louisgray, but Twitter pwned your post today with the release of Lists :) BTW, I can't believe that this didn't even make it onto the Best of Day tonight, FF is going down hill when it comes to tech stuff...
- Alex Schleber
I am sure it is a very real thing. I am an app and update and beta addict I just gotta have the newest thing and lots of things not always necessary but new and there to have.

Yes it's a real thing. I'm testing apps every night until my arms are hurting. =\

"Although this towering concrete treehouse isn’t really green, (unless tree imitation counts as ‘green’), we couldn’t help but be awestruck by its sheer craziness. We thought it worth a post, just for the picture alone. The Naha Harbor Diner in Okinawa, Japan is a life-size rendition of a banyan tree, also known as gajumaru. The aptly-named Banyan Town shopping center near the entrance of Onoyama Park features a twenty foot tall tree with a pan-Asian restaurant nestled amid its branches. Accessible by a spiral staircase around back and an in-trunk elevator, the restaurant specializes in locally grown and organic harvested foods fresh from the farm."

You are so technologically p*wned in about 5 to 7 years.......s'okay though adults will be obsolete by 2027 anyway.
- suzanne
why kids always like the glowing things?
- testbeta
i think it is natural instinct of even an adult human or even animals and insects, do kids find colorful things interesting? we try to paint all their things and surroundings, have seen even kids' schools painted colorfully

my sister says wow what a wonderful set of dolls hahahahaha

Has anyone considered the fact that this may all be part of some massive cloning conspiracy by the Grays to create the most perfect, gorgeous and smartest (and deadliest) babies on the planet? We could in actual fact be watching some secret technology-weapon training session.. And knowing how smart Louis is, they could be doing it right in public, the last place we'd look. We're through the looking glass here people... Best I say no more unless they send... *thud*
- Johnny Worthington
Louis, thanks for the tip, but I don't see the point if it is already pretty easy to "follow" people for Google Reader users. Isn't this link as easy to give someone has a twitter account: http://www.google.com/reader...
- Phillip Stewart
Phil, my guidance is always to provide your content wherever people want to be. If people prefer Twitter, give them your content on Twitter. The new rules for conversation and marketing is be where they want you to be, not where you tell them to.
- Louis Gray
I like that Louis. I may quote you on that.

Another option is to use the tag feature. Each tag you have in Reader you can expose as a separate feed. That feed is also PubSubHubbub enabled. So you could only retweet when you apply that tag to an item.
- Brett Slatkin
Not sure if reader2twitter supports those tag feed URLs though.
- Brett Slatkin
Why not just do "Send to Twitter" if you're going to do it on a post-by-post basis?
- Jesse Stay
Depends on how many clicks you like to make? I dunno
- Brett Slatkin
@phillip you can just sync share which has note
- kang
from fftogo
@Brett good idea. I will work on it
- kang
from fftogo
if you go with the solution to send to twitter only items that have a specific tag, you could use twitterfeed.

Robert Scoble says that @loic's Keynote for Le Web has more influence than Oprah. Here are 40 women on Forbes' top 100 most powerful women that are more powerful than Oprah: http://www.forbes.com/2009... - will it be one of them?
I mentioned Queen Rania before - agreed, she would be good. I don't know internationally, but I think here in the US Oprah still has more influence. (which is a bit sad, actually)
