@nomiddlename Indeed! I've used couchdb as a basic store for awhile for my podcatcher client, but I'm starting to see more and more uses!
@mischakrilov (World of Goo) I really like it! Unfortunately you just missed their "pay what you want" anniversary special, but fun game!

Excellent point: "...management and the incentives of the market aren't just something you can trivially add to social relationships. The addition of those things transform social relationships, and often not in a good way." - Ken Kennedy
Just added #EGC podcast to my Google Listen app on the G1. Podcast listening definitely moving to the phone!
Just finished some couchdb hacking...fun stuff! The more I use it, the more I like it.
Ok, Clipperz is cool, and the "direct login" feature is WAY cool.
@mischakrilov ...and the strange "UX related" aversion to locking saved passwords drive me crazy. I'm trying Clipperz, though, which fixes.
@mischakrilov Oh, I use Chrome. But the extension system in FF so much much more robust...
Parsing the House healthcare bill as passed (H.R. 3962) and reactions - thanks to OpenCongress for good links!
I'm trying hard to like new Firefox 3.6 beta, but FF in general has misbehaved horribly for me on Windows since 3.0

"If Settings in Android 2.0 are the same as 1.6 (I have a G1) ... open the GMail prg, and with the Inbox open (vs. an individual msg; context makes a difference), hit the menu button, and Settings should be an option. Choose Settings. Scroll down that list to Notifications, and choose "Select Ringtone", and choose Silent." - Ken Kennedy
It's a "World of Goo" night...
Does #HP actually think I'm going to find compelling calls from ppl who obviously don't even understand what they're reading off a script?

#tmobilefail cross-country outage. No data right now, update via old-school txt!
@tmobile_usa maybe less hype about Cliq on your stream, more info on nationwide outage! #tmobile #tmobilefail
Another CLEAR person, another answer. But good news; modem is on Fedex, out for delivery by 3pm, rather than in limbo. Even have trackinfo.
Oh. My. Gosh. What an unbelievable chat session with a guy from Clear (4G Internet). This will be blogged! But not at 2am! *grin*
Ahh! I had a reason to come and see if you would be doing it now or later! LOL - William Perkins

#makers resonates with my intuitions about #reprap and future of economy. It's a story, not prediction, but closer than CBO "models", IMO.
@mischakrilov Oh, I've done many Ubuntu upgrades, and I've run Debian on servers for 10+ years...but still always make me a bit nervous!
All appears well w/ laptop upgrade. W00t. #nofb
Upgrading laptop to Ubuntu 9.10. I've heard this goes pretty smooth, but this laptop is OLD. Fingers crossed.
@mightymur I saw! I figure I'll give NaNoWriMo a day or so until I try and add my widget to the insanity...*grin*
Giving NaNoWriMo a whirl again! - http://kenzoid.com/2009...
Trying out the Android twitter client Swift...seems to be what @mischakrilov is using right now, and that's a good enough rec for me!
