100. :-) But I'm only 156 on the ranking list. I guess I don't Tweet enough. - Robert Scoble

Are you saving up your milliscobles for a big event? - Daniel J. Pritchett

Grades; this IS what makes me hate the word "social". You'll tell me that it's how real life is too. and again I won't agree... this is, in fact, how real life WAS. kings, slaves, blacks, women... - directeur

I personally like the list of Sunnyvale users: http://twitter.grader.com/inde... - Louis Gray

ha! I got a grade of 74 and a rank of 67,727 out of 367,076... I think I'm happy with that? - Simon T Small

got 90 and I barely use twitter... so, that's simply silly - directeur

Also include: Anything by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. One time, they were seriously alternative. Now, I just skip or change the station. - Louis Gray

Achey Breaky Heart. Cotton-eyed Joe by Rednex. All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth (ok I was 8 when I last liked that one) - Phil Glockner

Sliding but not completely fired: Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead. (And yes, I know these are bands and not songs) - Louis Gray

Man, I love all the songs and artists you guys mentioned. Maybe I'm still stuck in the 90s? - Jesse Stay

Yeah, RHCP seem to be rubbish these days. - Richard Bradshaw

Anything by Lamb. I wore out the first two albums and just can't stand to listen any more. - Kevin D. White

I am torn right now. Ed and Steve are right. I like the smartphone but it does have so many limitations. Is it so wrong to want one device that does it all well? ;-) - Mathew A. Koeneker

It depends on the content I suppose as well as the mode of operation. Writing long e-mails on mobile devices, coding, or doing creative work is certainly not worth doing on smartphones. But taking and e-mailing pictures and video, transmitting location data, bar-code aided pricing comparing, and other sensor-aided activities are where smartphones seem to shine. I think this may balance out the consumption vs. creation equation over time. - Dion Hinchcliffe

I definitely want some sort of bar code scanning app. It would make shopping on a budget much easier. - Mathew A. Koeneker

Mathew, check out http://compare-everywhere.com/ for Android, it's getting really good reviews for doing bar code scanning price comparison. - Dion Hinchcliffe

Depends on what you are creating. - Kevin

Dion: Thanks! - Mathew A. Koeneker

I Agree with Kevin it really depends what you're creating and what device you're using. If you're referring to photos/video and you're talking about the iPhone or Blackberry mobiles then I understand, but if you include Nokia Nseries devices in the equation it changes all together. Nseries are great at capturing photos/video and then uploading them to your blog or Flickr especially the N82, N95 8GB, N96, N93i, etc. (basically the models with 3 Megapixel cameras or higher). If you're talking about text input for writing blog posts or long E-mails then probably a device with QWERTY keypad will work best for example, Blackberry mobiles or Nokia Eseries mobiles such as the E71. I'm very curious what smartphone/s you were referring to when you dismissed them as not being good at creating content? - LonelyBob via twhirl

@LonleyBob I use a Treo 755p which has the qwerty that I like. I would like to see a better speech to text app than is out there as I can talk a lot faster than I can type. - Mathew A. Koeneker

think it depends on your actual device as has been discussed here already ... the iPhone is absolutely a consumption focused device. Apple made very clear hardware decisions which make that a reality. The Nokia gear as @lonelybob mentions is considerably stronger on the creation side and something I concluded <http://www.atmasphere.net/wp/a...> quite a while back in my comparison of the N95 and iPhone. Nothing has really changed since ... - Jonathan Greene

the iPhone-powered laptop might be what you are looking for: http://www.gizmag.com/the-olo-... - vijay

smartphones are great for creating when you're not at your computer (ie. when you're in the real world) - William Stewart

people have always been afraid of technology that was new at the time - radio, nuclear power, cars, you name it. - Joelle Nebbe

whenever people have to burn energy that comes not from a wish within them...they try to avoid it. age does not matter at all. if my 2year old daughter dont see it as benefitial to change diaper she would not want to do so. - Chris Hofmann

Get off my lawn! - Bwana

wait, wait, who really "invents" in technology? The old stinky monkeys or the young stupid folks with acne vulgaris? :) - directeur via NoiseRiver

Seems there's a point where the effort made to "catch up" becomes too overwhelming. I know nothing about cars and I'm at the point in my life where I'd rather pay someone else to deal with it than climb up the learning curve to do basic things. That may tie into age, and I might not look on this as "old fogeys" being scared of change, but just not having the time. - Jason Kaneshiro
