yo so guys, I would seriously consider packing up and moving over to either the UK, Sweden, France or Spain. Spotify is *that* good. :)

based on business card quality, uk wins out of your countries zee - then france, spain and the sweden due to umlauts

it's crazy...i can search for say all eminem tracks on my desktop. Save all 100 of them to a playlist. Then can download the playlist to spotify on my iphone to play whenever i please...incredible.
- Zee.
The sound quality on all of the iProducts is so bad, I literally can't use them for listening to music. No one else in the universe seems to mind, but my iPhone's tinniness hurts my ears. (All eq tricks applied, yes.)

Did you already have a premium account Zee, or did the availability of the app make you make the change? Interested to know :)

- Rah-PM 2012
Rahsheen it takes me 5 seconds to type anything on Seesmic. TweetDeck it's instantaneous. That's on both a MacBook and MacBook Pro.
- Jesse Stay

Looking at my processes now, Seesmic is at 88,352K
- Mike Fruchter
I am still testing seesmic, and the multiple twitter account support is really cool. I will choose the first one that uses the "all friends" list as those people that are not in any other list :)
- Rob Diana
Tweetdeck is at 87,744K. There about equal on this pc, agreed though both are memory hogs. They run about the same here. Tweetdeck is a smidgen faster.
- Mike Fruchter
In a recent poll PeopleBrowsr beat both of them out. http://johnfmoore.wordpress.com/2009... :-) RAM consumption is a little higher, but there are more features, more networks accessible, and you can have more columns of data (I have 40 columns in mine much of the time)
- guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Tweetdeck is in the lead hands down.. the average person has only heard of tweetdeck.. they have gotten a lot more press than Seesmic has.
- Jason Pollock
So far, none of the many options is perfect, so I keep switching between Tweetie and Nambu at home (Tweetie is stabler, but Nambu has groups and saved searches), and between Seesmic and Twhirl at work (Twhirl is stabler, but doesn't have groups or saved searches). Tweetdeck is a non-starter for me now, because it doesn't have multiple account support.
- Jandy
Scott: I tend to agree, been testing seesmic, but its just not doing it for me. Probably go back to tweetdeck, but I'm tempted on a return to twhirl
- Alistair (alpinefolk)
Choice of tool really depends on what you need from it. I just don't get enough out of Seesmic or Tweetdeck, and both of them are just too taxing. And yes, Tweetdeck still has the most users, but I think that's going to change.
- guruvan (Rob Nelson)
TweetDeck.
- Louis Gray
I don't think either compare to Tweetie. If the desktop and iPhone app could stay in sync it would be perfect.
- Justin Luey
Do any of these apps yet store friend-groups in the cloud? Any of 'em recognize existing Facebook friend groups?
- Adam Lasnik
Adam: PeopleBrowsr does. And it will import your Tweetdeck groups if you've already got those. (via the AIR version) But it doesn't recognize FB friend groups yet (But you can search FB updates)

Tweetie for me. I just don't like AIR apps and avoid them whenever possible. And Nambu doesn't quite cut it yet.
- Grey Drane
Oh, and PeopleBrowsr isn't quite ready for prime time, as far as I'm concerned, and seems to suffer from feature bloat. The developers keep adding features and can never seem to manage to get the app out of alpha.
- Grey Drane
Grey -- feature bloat is directly antithetical to the core aesthetic of Twitter. It seems to miss the point of Twitter entirely. The Twitter UI should be ultra-simple and ultra-light -- which is why I always find myself returning to the crisp and clean Twitter homepage UI after playing around with the alternatives.

Am I the only one who still prefers the old plain but featured @Twhirl ?
- Giovanni De Stefano

Giovanni -- even Twhirl feels a bit too cluttered and heavy to me -- but that's just me.

Thanks Susan, that's ashame. I wonder why any developer would choose the bubbles. Not going to spend the money now.

Matt - Hello! Glad you found FriendFeed :) TweetStack is great - make the UI look like Tweetie's and you're my BFF! I like the idea of integrating it with TweetFollow... excellent idea. I was surprised when I saw 2 apps and thought to myself - why didn't they just add the "follow" feature to TweetStack? keep us posted here on this thread... thanks! You may want to consider creating a "Feed" (formerly known as a "room") for TweetStack so folks can subscribe to it and get updates on your product dev.
- Susan Beebe
I tried to send a tweet this morning with TweetStack and it took over a minute - had to cancel it... grrrr
- Susan Beebe
Susan, yes, I followed TweetStack's instructions. I was finally able to get it to work by totally removing TweetStack, my Twitter accounts and redoing everything. I am still encountering crashes though.
- Vinko
Vinko - perhaps sending a tweet to @TweetStack may get you some support based on your feedback
- Susan Beebe
Yes, I had been working with them. They say that 1.0.2 may resolve my issues. Although the the UI issues, particularly the way to bring up the Stack settings pane when a stack contains more than a full page of tweets. The double clicking to bring up the Stack settings is a bit hit and miss.
- Vinko
Susan - sorry to hear you had a problem sending - sometimes the Twitter API connects, then takes ages to respond. Perhaps we should lower our timeout value.
- Matt Brooke-Smith
TweetDeck import should run fine if you run it *before* you install the app. We are working on a method to ensure it works after you have downloaded, installed and run. Look out for V1.02. Ill let you know when we have submitted to Apple.
- Matt Brooke-Smith
Susan - thanks for the suggestion regarding a Feed/Room. Ill look into it! Always keen to keep people involved.

from twhirl
Doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose of reviews? They are focusing on revenue rather than providing great service to their customer (yelp users)
- Alistair (alpinefolk)
that kinda brings their whole integrity into question.. If something is bad, you should as a public service be allowed to say so.
- alphaxion
Well like most review sites, it should be taken with a grain of salt. I've read reviews where a person crapped on an entire business because of personal problems (something about how another customer in line was rude to him) - but of course, the last bit was at the very end. Yelp is unreliable (to me) since NYC and SF are totally saturated.
- Mona Nomura
from IM
BTW I'm not a fan of Yelp because of their "Elite" cliques. If you notice, the Elite Squad rave about the same places and rant about the same places - but that's personal observation.
- Mona Nomura
I do still use Yelp from time to time but don't take the reviews for anything but to get an idea of where I'm going. Having time to write reviews is a whole other issue...
- Tamara
Is there any reason to believe that the extortion calls came from Yelp? Here's a (presumably profitable, although possibly illegal) business model: Step 1: I team up with 20 of my closest friends, and start writing negative reviews for a few businesses. We write these reviews as well as we can; we actually visit those businesses so we we can mention specific details, and so the reviews won't look canned. We spread this out over a period of a few months, so as not to be detected.
- Tudor Bosman
Step 2: I start calling up these businesses and offer to remove the negative reviews. They don't know that the reviews were written by my little extortion racket, and they pay up. We remove the reviews (slowly) and maybe write some positive ones, also with lots of specific details. The businesses see measurable benefits and so continue to pay.
- Tudor Bosman
Step 3: PROFIT! This hinges on the ability of a small group of people to significantly affect the yelp score for a business, and that seems definitely doable -- most businesses have less than 500 reviews.
- Tudor Bosman
Isn't that like blackmail or extortion or something?
- Martha
Depends on the area you are in, Tudor. SF and NY is a mess. The system is all screwed up, beyond the problem of who and what gets displayed as the top reviews on Yelp.
- Mona Nomura
Martha: yes, I believe it is extortion. Sorry if I didn't make myself clear; the original article claims that Yelp tries to extort money from businesses by offering to remove bad reviews for a fee. I provided an alternative explanation -- this may be the work of a different (criminal) enterprise that is not associated with Yelp at all.
- Tudor Bosman
Mona: I'm in SF, and yes, I can think of a few ways that the Yelp system is messed up. Extortion and blackmail ratchet things up a notch, though.
- Tudor Bosman
Hmm... well extortion and blackmail won't fly (imho), especially with so many tech savvy business owners in the bay. My issue is with the Yelp community itself. I've seen more than a few suspect activities.

- alphaxion
What Tudor says, but if Yelp sells ads to the same businesses that are reviewed on the site, there's a conflict of interest, and it raises a bit of a red flag re: the neutrality/authenticity of the reviews. "Real People. Real Reviews (tm)".
- dario
dario: Google sells ads to businesses but won't alter its search results for the benefit of the advertisers. Yes, there's a theoretical conflict of interest, but Google's reputation hinges on staying neutral here. And they're not evil. :) I don't think Yelp is any different.

I got the Wii unboxed and we're boxing. Hey, it's pretty fun! Ordered a second Wiimote & Nunchuk, and the Nyko charger, but no games yet.

If you can find one in stock.. you gotta get a wii fit.

Tiger Woods Golf is also really good on the Wii

hope you're not playing it on an HDTV.. looks pretty bad/pixelated even with component cables. I sold my Wii b/c of that.. http://paulstamatiou.com/2009...

My girlfriend finally beat me in boxing..... She was so excited.

If you want a kick-back, exploring, non-game, Endless Ocean looks cool.

BOOM BLOX, Steven Spielberg's first video game for EA. My kids can't play because I take the wiimote away. Very fun.
- Greg
I would recommend not to buy Wii Fit. It's a waste of money/big disappointment. Super Mario Galaxy is quite cool.
- Davide D'Incau
Mario Galaxy is by far the best Wii game to date, Boom Blox and Mario Cart are also good. Wii Fit is only worth while for the *balance board for games like Raving Rabbits T.V. Party and Wii Ski.

Wouldn't it be great if you could email documents (WordDocs, Excel Spreadsheets,etc) to Evernote and it would internally convert them to PDF for you..

Wouldn't it be great if Evernote would support OCR for PDFs?
- Tim Ostler
yes it would
- Eric Dorsett
Both would be awesome. I agree with prioritizing OCR for PDFs above native support of other file formats, though, because it seems like it would have immediate widespread positive impact for existing users.
- Kate O'Neill
My Mac does that for me.
- Steve Sill
Do you have a workflow set up for that, Steve?
- Kate O'Neill
Please do tell, Steve! The lack of OCR for PDFs is not so rockin for me right now!
- Gregory Cohen
I think he means that, on a Mac, you can print any document to a PDF file.
- Carlos Granier-Phelps
Oh, you mean like what you could do on a PC if you installed CutePDF!
- MiniMage, enterRUPPted
Or PrimoPDF. :)

or PDFCreator

Lots of great stuff this morning from Om, Scoble, NakedJen, Gartenberg, Canter on my Friends feed. http://twitter.com/friends...

I'd like to make a prediction for 2009 now. 1. Scoble will go to Davos. 2. We'll hear about it 80,000 times. :-)

My prediction is Scoble will post many times suggesting that people shouldn't care about the A-list, how many followers one has, etc., and will then immediately starting laughing nervously as soon as he loses any followers.
