Added you all. Taylan, well you have at least one now. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Wait, Google Wave gives you an email address? Super awesome! - Nick Humphries

Nick, well it's your Gmail address but with @googlewave.com instead of @gmail.com (or @googlemail.com) - Kol Tregaskes

I'd like one. hmnunes@gmail.com - HN from iPhone

HN, post here instead: http://ff.im/91M9R - Kol Tregaskes

Kol: That's pretty neat. Wish it was shorter like wave.com or gwave.com (Google owns gwave.com anyway) or something. - Nick Humphries

i think this @googlewave.com email address is a temporary thing during testing. after it goes live you should be able to just use it with your google account. at least that's what i think:) - Taylan Aydınlı

@gwave.com doesn't seem to work. - Kol Tregaskes

1997, and it was just to find and chat with my future husband, didn't know then that it would change all my life - Olga Rasulova

1984. (Might have been 1983.) I'm really old. - Kevin Gamble

1979. My dad volunteered to run a new department at his University. It was a new computer department running a DEC PDP 1134. Not long after we were connecting a dumb terminal to our analog phone at home to dialIn to access his mainframe at the school. I was 10. Dad's a blogger now and never has lost touch with technology. :-) - Julian Seery Gude from BuddyFeed

1982-3 - clarke thomas

1985. Dialing out on a 300 baud modem with my C64. - Kevin C. Tofel

1994, with a super fast 9600 baud modem. With the incredible Trumpet software providing a solid SLIP connection. 100hr/month for 25$ ! Holy shit, I was RICH than! - Éric Senterre

1988 - Father-in-law introduced me - I was a big time BBS man with my 2400 Baud back then too :) - Owen Greaves

1995 with my 14k modem using microsoft comic chat - Nelson Mateo

1991 at college, U of C had an awesome internet setup. ran my first web server on a mac IIci running AUX in '94. - felix

1995 - Martin Liechti

1992/3 - I was forced to learn it so I could teach using it. I remember sitting at a 486 reading while I waited for a page to load, so I could plan how to use it in class. Luckily the college provided tutorials and I had IT-smart friends. I fell in love with the computer & web and wrote my PhD thesis about that (ongoing) adventure - http://www.scribd.com/doc... - Joan Vinall-Cox

1996? Whenever AOL went unlimited and it usually took hours to connect. I remember being as excited as a kid at Christmas when it finally connected! - Josh Begin

When I was 10 I remember my dad bringing me to his work on a weekend and setting me up in front of a computer because I kept hearing something about a Cleveland Indians website on the radio. I begged him to take me back to work everyday after that. - Alan Witzke

Think a few people here are referring to ARPAnet and/or online services?? 1993 ... Launched my first company (with it's own URL 1995) - Charlie Anzman

Kevin - You're not old. 300 baud Compuserve ... text ... WOW! - Charlie Anzman

Officially 1994. We used networked computers in the DoD in the 70s, but I was totally away from any web after that until '94. PCs were a shock to my system. - Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)

1990. - Joey Gibson

'93 using an amateur radio modem. '96 for AOL using a Performa 400 (no web, just used AOL chats/email and telnet) and text-based web at the library. I think '98 before I was using a graphic web interface. - Alix Whitmire

1997 but just in 1998 I have access to it with my first computer. - Bibi

1997, I was 14 years old. My brother bought a computer and it came with an AOL Trial. - Pamela

1992. - l0ckergn0me from iPhone

1994 with a 2400 baud modem and an AOL hourly account. - John Fox

when i was about 10 years old in 4th grade on AOL...took my best friend and I about 45 mins to figure out you needed to plug a telephone cord into the computer lol. (about 1996-97) - stanleyyork

1994 - it was all about AOL, web crawler, geocites ......I always thought how this thing, the internet, was going to get faster in the future..at that time I was 12. - iTbay

Early 80's. There was only hosted chat rooms and it was all text and ascii art. I think MedDirec and the Green Door was a couple of them and I think some universities were toying with email. You really had to know protocol to get 1200 baud out of the modems. I came up with the idea to put a toggle switch on the front of the box instead of bridging the pins on the motherboard to go from... more... - Robt.D.McKenzie

1992 i think, trumpet, slip, telnet, stuff - Liviu Barbat

i used 'sz' to download a file via zmodem, and slipknot to slip-over-shell circa 1994 yee haw - Brian Hendrickson

91 or 92 via ampr.net over 1k2 baud shared radio channels. Then I signed up for demon.net "tenner a month" package at 14k4 full duplex :D. The rest, as they say, is net> - Nick B.

Subway doesn't really count. It's not bad enough for you, and you could probably live on it if you had to. I would choose In 'n Out. - Cristo

117 more comments

Dinner, Burger King. - Nurse Katie

Either KFC or Popeyes...three piece meal. Two legs and a breast. I can't help the fact that I love fried chicken (actually fried foods in general). - Alex Scoble

Dominos. I love the attention to detail and that little bit extra - Simon Wicks

Usually Subway - Alan Simpson

Being vegetarian, I find Burger King offers the best veggie burger and Dominos is excellent value for pizza. - Charlotte M

Chipotle. Does that count? - Kevin Kuphal

Of the six in the image I would say Burger King, nom, nom, nom on the Whoppers with Cheese. Screw Dominoes, cardboard and ketchup would taster better. - Allen Harkleroad

And if Chris is right and Subway doesn't count, Burger King - Alan Simpson

Taco Bell - Adam Jackson

A wendy's Chili - i'm just not a sandwich kind of person - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

I lean toward Wendy's and Taco Bell. - Patrick Boegel

Taco Bell:) - onur özen

Chick-fil-a! or when i want something really bad--Taco Bell - Kelly W.

In-And-Out. Their Double Double Protein Style gives me both my protein AND my veggies. Oh, and Chipotle. - Helen Sventitsky

In my city, Burger King rules. Elsewhere, it depends (tried a german Burger King and it sucked bad). - bnoise

If I am in Kentucky, White Castle - Alan Simpson

Fortunately, the In 'n Out in SF is very inconvenient. - Cristo

Five Guys or Tijuana Flats. EDIT: Oh, and Evo's. Of the ones in the pic, the only one I can/will eat is Subway (chicken bacon ranch salad). - Alix Whitmire

love some chicken planks from ljs - of course there are none in nyc so when i find one i must have it - Allen Stern

I too would choose In-N-Out if I could. - Dave Roth

I've never even heard of ljs or in-N-out - Zee.

KFC. The chicken beckons. </shame> - Larry Hudson

A&W Sirloin Uncle Burger with onion rings and a Root Beer. Lunch or dinner. - Kenton

Zee, In 'n Out is a "healthy" cook-to-order burger place popular on the west coast (and maybe other parts) of the US. It has very few choices, and has an almost cult-like following. There's one right on the other side of the freeway from Google headquarters in Mountain View. - Cristo

In N Out is the bomb, but we don't have them here and they don't fry the burgers...ergo my choice is still KFC or Popeyes. - Alex Scoble

Alex, actually there is "animal style", which is fried in mustard. It's one of their "secret" options. You can also add pickles. - Cristo

I like Wendy's chili...it has less fat and more nutrition than most fast food. - Dawn

McDonald's cheeseburger happy meal. - Janet

Taco Bell. Either #1 (Burrito Supreme w/Taco Supreme, no tomatoes on the taco) or #3/5 depending on location (3 Taco Supremes, no tomato on the taco) plus a chicken Meximelt. Though the Meximelt also depends on location. In Orange County, the chicken Meximelts taste like tuna. GAG. - Admiral Anika

KFC, Pizza Hut,Subway, Burger King or (as a last starving-on-a-dessert-island resort) MacDonalds - Roberto Bonini

Thankyou for filling me in Chris! - Zee.

Can I eat the left over white pixels instead of picking one of those multi-colored things? - Micah Wittman

In-N-Out for me, too, and I'm stoked that they're finally coming to Salt Lake City! - Josh Begin

Whataburger is #1. I like Burger King too. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Wendys - Amber, Random Time Lord

Being a low-carber, I usually just go to McDonald's and get their double cheeseburger or quarter pounder without the buns. If you just care about the beef patty, McDonald's is the cheapest :-P. I also go to Subway for their salads. - Andre P. Siregar

taco bell. just regular ass soft tacos and I'm good. sooo gooood. - Richard Lawler

burger king - only place that has veggie burger - mike "glemak" dunn

Wendy's, then Subway. - cecily

Long John Silver's for the fried fish. - Morton Fox

Taco John's and Runza for me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - Jordan Hofker

schilotksyz - \(*_*)/

Fish tacos. - Steven Perez

My choice is either BK or the taco restaurant by our house, Los Comales :) - Zulema ◕ ◡ ◕

subway is healthiest. Taco bell is tasties - Jeremiah Owyang

burger king all the way down - Giovanni De Stefano

I used to think that Jeremiah was a good guy...and then he went all crazy on us. Taco Bell? Seriously? - Alex Scoble

Subway and Wendies - Todd Hoff

Alex - What's wrong with Taco Bell. I love Taco Bell - Alan Simpson

Subway, no doubt - Shey, Jamaican of FF

Nothing wrong with Taco Bell (chalupas FTW!), but compared to fried chicken it's not even a contest. It's a complete slaughter. Fried chicken wins hands down every time. - Alex Scoble

wendy's. burger, fries, chocolate frosty. - ♥patricia♥

I like fried chicken more, but not as fast food, even popeyes & church's (whatever happened to mighty wings anyway?) over taco hell. lets not start on french fries tho - it's gotta be Rally's - Richard Lawler

Chalupa's are freakin tasty. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

Five Guys FTW! - Alex Scrivener

A roach coach, a street vendor hotdog (wrapped in bacon), or other local businesses like the infamous, omnipresent $1 Chinese Food. If I go to a brand (rare): McDonald's, Wendy's, or Subway. If I get delivery from a brand, Domino's. - jojo, adventurer

Wendy's definately nothing better than Wendy's french fries dipped in a chocolate frosty - Adrienne Van Houten

Here in Holland for me it's Febo (which off course nobody of you will know). More important, because really delicious, is Vlaamse Friet being sold in the Voetboogstraat (very wise to remember that adress in case you're planning to visit Amsterdam as a tourist). - Ton Zijp

Coming in late on this but, without a doubt, it's Chick-fil-a. This is probably because I can't get it around here so, when I do, it's a treat. The waffle fries there are the best. And, when I'm in the mood to eat chicken, the chicken pieces beat out all others. - Akiva Moskovitz

Chic-fil-a is good I have to admit. - orionstarr

KFC Extreme Meal - Afşın Avcı

Not many options in SF (as far as fast food chains). I'd say the Ali Baba's schawerma and Mission burritos are pretty expedient. - Steve Lynch from twhirl

Best? Hardly - in the top 100? You bet! - Kevin Johnson

I would have to say yes, as well. I definitely use it more than any other gadget. - Josh Begin

Yea, kind of, in the sense that it has been a 'life altering' device for me, allowing me much greater flexibility on the road. In the same way buying my first cell phone 10 years ago was a change, this too has been rather monumental. - Andrew Leyden

Mona - What makes these answers Myopic? Is it not possible that it is the best gadget some of us have ever owned? I'm curious what comes to mind first when you think of the best gadget that you owned. PS. think Andrew Leyden just explained it pretty well. - Justin Korn

I hate to be an Apple hater but I love my Sprint Mogul and my recently purchaced Zune. I feel that these products have more bang for your buck than the Apple products. - David Cook from fftogo

yes - mikepk

I think so, yes. My computer is more powerful, but the iPhone is the "coolest". I still have people who gawk at some of the things it can do, there is really no other phone like it. At the same time, there are some hardware and software problems that don't always allow it to be at it's full potential. - Brandon Titus

easily in the top 5. - Carlos Ayala

yes, I <3 my iPhone - Neil Bernhart

Ummmm I'll go with yes, cant really think of anything else that would takes its place other than my computer, but thats not realy a gadget. - Simon Wicks

@Mona, curious what you would say is the "best gadget" you've ever owned. I am thinking of the "gadgets" I've had over the course of my life and I think it's pretty high up there. There are certainly many tools and objects that have been more awesomer, but not a lot of gadgets... - Clay Newton

Yes. I can't live without it :) - Peter

#1 for me... - orionstarr

yup. - Sonya Smith

absolutely. I also love the fact that it is changing the industry for the better. Take a look at phones pre-iPhone and post-iPhone, the difference is night and day! - vijay

It's perfect - orionstarr

I am seriously thinking of getting the iPhone, my 'smartphone' is now dumb, a 2005 motorola. Do you have internet speed issues with your carrier? I would be using at&t because we get a discount through work. - Janet

Janet - WAIT. The new iPhone is coming out soon. - Mona Nomura

I wouldn't bet on a new iPhone until at least July... even then, the market has proved itself that you can sell your old one and make a PROFIT on a new one. If you want one, just get it. - Bwana ☠

On second thought, wait - Bwana ☠

Ok, get it - Bwana ☠

I haven't had any connections issues and it also picks up wifi nicely - orionstarr

Janet, err. Um. The iPhone is only available (officially) through AT&T. So you're good! (Sorry for quoting the Verizon guy, adding to the confusion.) - Jared B. Luther

The commercial is right... Once you have one you wonder how you lived without it! - orionstarr

Hmmm... it's the one device I've owned the longest. I go through toys every few months due my job, but I've had my first-gen iPhone since July of 2007. That's a record for any mobile device I've ever had of any kind. It will get retired this summer: for either a Pre, third-gen iPhone or *maybe* a BB. I'm leaning towards Pre at the moment. - Kevin C. Tofel

Yes, definitely. - Joey Gibson

nope.. It's an alright phone (but then, no phone has been perfect for me) but not the best gadget I've ever owned. That title is a split battle between my Palm T3, my NAS box or my old spectrum 128 +2 for introducing me to gaming. - alphaxion

Probably, it's either the iPhone or my MacBook. - Paul Grav

Definitely. - Stewart Heys

I have to say yes. Very versatile device and much more surfable than I originally thought. Plus a lot of fun since I imported my first iPhone from the US a year before it came to Europe, and hacked, localized and translated the interface, which again lead me to learn Cocoa Touch and ObjC. I may use my MBP for more things but that´s probably not a "gadget". - Thomas Bøhm

So far, the commenters on my site _don't_ want Twitter and FriendFeed to go mainstream. Do you want to keep these technologies to yourself? - Louis Gray

30 more comments

I do, I'd say Twitter probably has the best shot right now. FF is still over the head of too many, they dont know (and dont want to know) about rss - sean percival

I really hope with the continuous feature additions and improvements to FriendFeed, it would soon have a universal appeal. There are so many Nay-sayers but I'm behind them 220%. :) As for Twitter - I don't really use it anyway, so it doesn't make a difference. Although I would LOL if they were to start charging monthly fees. ie: Threaded replies are only for premium accounts haha - Mona Nomura

This weekend I excitedly told an engineer-friend (hydrologist) about meeting the "inventor of RSS" last week. And he said "what's that?" -- Bastard. - Brian Hendrickson

Twitter will go mainstream as people always want to be noticed. Friendfeed has a harder road because it is not about the user, it is about the information. If Friendfeed goes mainstream, it will be in a much different way, like a major research or news tool. - Rob Diana

FF will go mainstream as soon as people realize that it's *not* about the information, it's about the conversation. Twitter in its current form is a megaphone broadcasting system a la FB status updates, without a realistic and understandable method of replying. FF on the other hand not only let's you share information, but creates a method to *discuss* it. It's biggest obstacle for going mainstream is the UI. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Tina, I mostly agree about the conversation, but the conversation is typically based on the information at this point. I think the amount of information that passes through will be too much for most people until better filters are in place. I admit, I tend to be very pessimistic when it comes to growth and mainstream adoption of most tech. - Rob Diana

I am all for both apps hitting mainstream fast. Both serve excellent online communication needs. Twitter provides broadcasts and quick short replies; whereas FriendFeed provides the ability to share information and generate conversation / feedback regarding that info., which can blossom into an entire community around that topic. Twitter's challenge is stability, scalability and UI. FriendFeed's challenge is search, organization and UI. - Susan Beebe

Rob, I can only base statements on my experience of course, and they're going to be affected by who follows me. With that said, my most engaging conversations on FF have usually been around a topic tossed up as a status update/question, not a link to an external post. Also, unlike FB and TW which offer a one to one conversation model (excepting FB groups), FF automatically offers a one to many conversation model. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

FriendFeed will go mainstream because it's a better medium than email for sharing links and news. I wrote in detail on this here: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Bruce Lewis from fftogo

couple quick comments: not everything needs to "go mainstream" to be a success, it is ok to fill a niche & some things are not products but rather features best integrated into or augmenting something else - i think friendfeed fits both these criteria (current and future) and i see that as a good thing personally... - mike "glemak" dunn

@Mike - I've been thinking this too lately. What is "a success"? Is Apple a "success". They only have about 5% of the market of computers, yet I think there is a lot more media buzz about Apple unveiling a revised macbook than there is about Dell or HP introducing a revised 1050e or whatever they call them. If you get 1% of Americans using your product, that is 3 million people. That is a lot. - Robert Felty

What is mainstream? 25% of US population? 10% of RSS/tech geeks? 1% of the world? 10% of people who would pay for this service? FF's current UX won't scale to a large population having lots of real conversations here. But it does serve a good niche (or two or three) right now. But what % of the world has/wants to have conversations like this? Mainstream would drive FF to be everything to everyone. Would we (as early adopters) still like it then? - David Lee

I have a radical idea... how about Twitter just finds a way to make some money. Mainstream is great... but completely misses the point... - Brian Roy

I am "mainstream", but I've been on FF for a year as of tomorrow. - Anne Bouey

Has anyone else noticed the push the major media give to some services and not others? How often did Television Programming (news, sitcoms, talk shows) talk about "googling" something; did you ever hear them talk about "yahooing" or "asking" anything? Then it was myspace, myspace, myspace followed by Facebook. Makes me wonder if those who own the media heavily invest and then push their investments. - Internet Strategist

Internet Strategist: media people just want to be cool. It's easy to understand why they push certain stuff. I do the same. I have no investments in anything. - Robert Scoble

Will Twitter and FriendFeed become mere commodities, fed to the masses by media moguls, to sell their product ? Because that is their job. I think Twitter is becoming more mainstream, more noticed and talked about - but not generally understood. How would it be affected by advertising and ten times the traffic? FF will take longer to catch on, even though it is better. Twitter plants seeds that can be grown in FriendFeed. - Chris Loft

frankly i don't think Joe the Plumber is really that interested in such a mass of content/dialogue, Facebook is about as much feed as an average person can handle. FF/Twitter are downright manic for them and they don't have/don't want the mental faculty to deal with the multiple perpetual conversations/topics - it creates more anxiety than fun and if it's not fun it's toast. Neither will get double digit % of the population using them - Bob Sonin

OTOH, is text messaging considered mainstream yet in the U.S.? (I realize we lag way behind the rest of the world in this.) I don't think the "mainstream" can handle more than one technological breakthrough at a time :) I still know people who are even just getting used to using a computer. - Victor Ganata

@Bob I think Twitter is so powerful that it can be used for many different purposes. Imagine a multi-dimensional Twitter with single or more refined services. For local councils, government, media companies, business services, geeks, gossip, etc. Each with their own customised Twitter serving their needs. This is where Twitter will produce an income stream; hiving itself off into customized services, without the noise. - Chris Loft

i dont think it is a "we dont want it to go mainsteam" it is more of a "the technology isnt quite ready for it to go mainsteam, we couldnt handle all our friends and family and colleagues nattering on our feeds, we can barely handle the information flow at the moment". We need better filtering, a better way to have several spheres in parallel on these services. - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

(translating my previous comment in pragmatic speech:) I am happy to have all that crowd happily segragated on facebook sending each other quizzes, i dont want them coming on my FF and twitter. I love them to bits but they are, well, embarrassing! I don't want "what peanut character are you" on my friendfeed, and it will come with the mainstream - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

hmmm, this bubbled up so I re-read it. man, that was a great old post - Sarah Perez

By old you mean 9 weeks, right Sarah? :-) - Louis Gray

Just remember what comes with being mainstream...tons of spammers. - April Russo (app103)

FriendFeed should go mainstream. Despite our selfish desire to want to keep it to ourselves, it is a smarter way for news and information to be disseminated that would benefit all once they are aware of it. - Thomas Hawk

No question, when a service hits critical mass, the conversation will change. Look at YouTube - people are always bemoaning the boorish, illiterate nature of the comments there. Will we stick around when Scoble or Louis pose an interesting question and half the comments are spam and profanity? - Laura Norvig

I don't want FF to go mainstream because then it will probably be blocked at work like FB, Myspace, etc... - Josh Begin

some ppl should think what this service is about: aggregating the feeds of people you trust and like aka friends as in friendfeed :) - Chris Hofmann

@Chris, that can be seen as the basic service, definitely, but the ability to converse about an item is what is giving this site stickiness and added value. At least, IMO. - Laura Norvig

was trying to formulate a point, but then saw that Stupid Ninja said it even better above... so I'll just shut it and move on... - Peter Efland

Oh this is where the fry sauce thread started. Good fries I can eat without anything, but I prefer Ketchup most times. Sometimes I'll mix the ketchup with a little bit of hot sauce.

It is funny what shading will do to an image. Notice that the angry face has dark patches under the eyes. So does that mean that the dark bags under my eyes from lack of sleep will actually make me look calmer from a distance. Cool! - Wizetux

cool - though they both struck me as angry initially - mike "glemak" dunn

Yeah... the second one looks that scary-calm-mom-angry. Where she isn't saying anything, and when you ask, she says she's fine, but you just KNOW she's ready to bite somebody's head off. Or maybe that's just my mom. - Ladybug Heather

I use a light clock, that starts out dark and gets brighter. - RAPatton

I want one of those clocks but I need it to be digital or a very quiet analog. I cannot stand the sound of a ticking clock. Does your model meet that requirement? - Michelle Jones

Imagine a cross between train wreck and fingernails on a chalk board at full volume right from the first. - Jeremy Kunz

I used to set it to music but that stopped working so I've been using the default beeping sound. Half the time I'm so sleep deprived that I don't even realize I've turned off the first 2 alarms. Which is why I also have my cellphone set to go off. I know. Ridiculous. :) - ♥patricia♥

Michelle, if you are asking me, mine is digital and it silent. - RAPatton

A cat. - Nine

I use a radio to wake up - alarm beeps "scare" me awake too badly - but I really like the light clock. Hmm... RAPatton, do you have any recommendations? - Ladybug Heather

The harp sound on my iPhone. - Svartling

Yes RAPatton I was asking you. Can you tell me what model yours is? It sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. - Michelle Jones

..but i dont need a sound because i'm always awake before the alarm goes off. - Svartling

A two yr. old playing with cars or dinosaurs. - Admiral Anika

Coffee grinder. - Oldengrey (Jay)

Svartling, please mail your alarm to me. You obviously don't need it. :D - Merry Xmas FFeeders - AJ

I will look tonight. This is the second one I've had and I've liked both. - RAPatton

My G1 more than does the job for me. That hellish sound it makes every morning wakes me up with fail. - Steven Perez

my Blackberry bold .... seriously the nicest alarm Ive evar had ... - johnpiercy

The Milkman ringing the Door Bell. Or my brain, in case I have slept with an urgency to wake up at a given time in mind. - Parth Awasthi

Steven, I just hate that I can't change the alarm volume on my G1 without changing my ringer volume. Bluh... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Tina: I know. :( - Steven Perez

My kids usually otherwise i just wake up on my own. - Jason Shultz from twhirl

Mine is BBC Radio 1, normally Greg James or Chris Moyles. - Kol Tregaskes

Increasing volume is a great idea. - Mike Reynolds

The alarm clock I had before this one didn't have this setting. So, I had to set it loud to be sure I heard it. I hated being startled awake though.Very rarely do I sleep through the first beep any more even though it is very soft. Of course, here lately, I've been awake about an hour before I have it set. :( - Yolanda

The "Hands In My Pocket" song from the Capital One commericals - Shey, Jamaican of FF

My kids, one of them is sure to wake up around 6am - Amit Morson

my alarm clock is just like this one! I usually wake-up with news on the radio, sometimes I wake up with a CD - paula simoes ☃

I get up naturally without an alarm clock every day somewhere between 3 and 5 a.m. - Thomas Hawk

SportsRadio 1040 AM in San Francisco! - .LAG liked that

@.LAG: +1. - AJ Kohn

The first ring is normal. The second ring is greatly enhanced by my wife's yelling at me to get the f**k up. - Bora Zivkovic

An awful beeping. It's supposed to be a little digital song but it's just annoying. - Rochelle

I wake up to the Timba sound on my iPhone. But it takes several snoozes. - Carmen

I wake up around 7ish each morning. No Alarm, unless I need to specifically get up earlier. Having to get up with an alarm means that you're not naturally getting enough sleep - Ian May

i don't use an alarm. i just wake up when the sun hits my face. - Jon Lee

"Rock the Casbah" ringtone on my iPhone - Rob Haas

"Wake Up" by Rage Against the Machine, I use Alarm for my PC and it too gets louder over time. I find it effective to have my computer screaming WAKE UP!!! When I need to get up. :) - Aram Zucker-Scharff

Music for me. @Parth you have a milkman? Wow, those were the good old days. Does the milk come in bottles or cartons? - Kenton

I use a cell phone, and my alarm is actually a MIDI song that I wrote one year ago today. "Maybe Lean (Barry)" at http://ontarioemperor.tripod.com/music... (although it sounds different on a cell phone) - Ontario Emperor

NPR - Alex Scoble

I also use my phone, with a custom ringer of the Beastie Boys' "Mark On The Bus".... it starts out with: "Good Morning, Time to get up and go to work!!!!" - Neil Bernhart

beepbeepbeepbeep beepbeepbeepbeep beepbeepbeepbeep - that's the sound it makes. - Will Higgins™

Default ringer on my cell phone. I know, lame. I'm also interested to know which light clock RAPatton has now that it's dark when I get up. - Josh Begin

usually some random song on my ipod. anything from slayer to joao gilberto - Cee Bee

On Wednesdays I am rudely awakened by the dustman. - Pete Delucchi

Park Life! Anyway, I start off with BBC voices at 4:30am on one clock, then later two other clocks join in with loud beeping. I still manage to sleep through the cacophony sometimes... very annoying. - Kamilah Gill

977 The 80's Channel streamed via a Chumby - Duncan Riley

i've had the same sony dream machine (red) for about seven years. it would wake me up if i didn't wake up at around 5:30 on my own. - carlotta fancypants

Non Sequitor, but I thought of you this morning. I was on Golden Gate and Polk and looked down towards City Hall and the lights on the cross walk were blinking and it was all beautiful and dusky and foggy, and I thought "Where's Thomas Hawk when you need him?" - B. Hatin

Thanks for the post, Thomas! Friendfeed really is so much more than an aggregator, isn't it? - Josh Haley

Yep, FF is pretty awesome and really glad that you guys are doing the podcast. - Thomas Hawk

@Rudy I love that angle of the city - also new angle, standing at edge of pier39, east-bay side of boardwalk, (other side of sea lions) and looking at telegraph hill/downtown. it's a neat angle. Thomas feel free to use :) - anna sauce

looks like the podcast is going to be very helpful. Thanks! - Josh Begin
