In the fancy first class, they had all the movies they wanted. In economy, it was free media on a little screen (snacks cost money) but they apparently didn't want to start a movie they didn't think they could finish.

My strategy is based on what I picked last. If I throw down scissors, then the next time I'll throw down paper b/c my opponent will throw rock. Then I will throw down rock b/c he will try to cut paper thinking I'm going to do the same thing.

I only have success playing against my kids. They telegraph what they are going to do.

In this case, I was being more literal. I've been preparing for a focus group that has involved a LOT of cutting of paper. My hands hurt.

Somehow winning against kids takes all of the fun out of it. At least you can still play them poker for their allowance money to get them to do extra chores to earn it back.

Original Survey: bit.ly/grLJc This picture illustrates very preliminary survey results exploring how people mentally explore their Twitter stream. If some of the labels are confusing, simply direct yourself to the survey for a more detailed description. There is more data to dig into and a richer story to tell than this simple visualization ... and don't worry, it will come. But at the moment, I still need more survey participants. Right now, I don't believe the participant pool is deep enough to adequately represent the Twittersphere. So please, if you find this interesting (or even if you don't), participate in the survey. It should only take a couple of minutes: bit.ly/grLJc

"The other key is the Twitter ecosystem keeps evolving, too. Twitter the Service hasn't changes substantially in the last two years, but Twitter the Culture has. People who gave up on it a long time back do find their way back to try it again, discovering that more people are using it in their social networks with better tools than they had when they left. The same will be true for all the people who just came on board to be best friends with Oprah. It may be more accurate to look at those numbers and suggest that Twitter's adoption cycle is often quite a bit longer than with other SN. Despite all the help the 140-character constraint and simplicity of the service brings, members have to get over thinking of Twitter as just a broadcast of the mundane. Having an account already created makes it that much easier to join in earnest later. I've noticed many of my old high school friends (from the 1980s) are going to Facebook when they start diving into social networks. Twitter is still a..."

"I think it would be wise to update this article to emphasize FriendFilter may be in beta, but the accompanying TwittFilter is very much alpha. The link you have goes to the signup page, which gives no indication of this status, but the resulting place to login is a largely broken page with links that aren't functional and "alpha" all over it. It isn't very clear what is expected when logging in, and I got a number of conflicting status/error messages when it tried to create my file. Still not sure if it worked or how to confirm, which has me a bit concerned."

"Topify (http://www.topifybeta.com/) is another entry in this field and looks like an even match for Twimailer, though I haven't checked that one out. I may try FriendFilter instead, though, because of the amount of checking it does for relevance and network overlap."
