@sarahintampa Just look at how people are angry about the SUL, Twitter has a lot of "kingmaker" power and this would extend it further.
@sarahintampa but then the classic conundrum. Who gets to be the censor / editor? Would Twitter allow payment for trending topics?
@baratunde lol, now you just need a warhead to disassemble to build a cylon detector. :)
After a seeming month of gray clouds and misting rain, happy the fourth weekend has been so beautiful up here in Boston.
Sitting in the yard appreciating that the sky really *is* blue. Hope everyone had an awesome 4th. - mikepk
Doh, nm, just realized opencoffee is at 8:30 *AM* :) So I'll check both out.
Boston innovators: Any thoughts on opencoffee cambridge vs. mass innovation nights? Which one is more interesting? Both same time this mo.
@Scobleizer Jealous. I did my senior thesis project for NASA in college at Goddard S.F.C. Was truly an amazing experience

Journal of a New COBRA Recruit - McSweeney's
"May 2, 1986 Today this guy in a blue uniform came up and gave me a pamphlet. Said he was a recruiter for COBRA, an outfit a lot like the army but without all those government regulations to slow down the fun. We talked a little and he said he liked the cut of my jib, thought I'd be great COBRA material. " - mikepk via Bookmarklet
"June 16, 1986 First day of boot camp was a bear. All of the other boots seem like nice guys. Don't know what any of them look like because the first thing they did when we got here was give us blue helmets with black hankies to cover up our faces. I'm getting pretty good at recognizing people's eyebrows though. Figured we'd do a lot of exercise today, but we didn't do as much as I... more... - mikepk
Haha. I was just thinking about the GI Joe Resolute series, and then that got me to thinking of this classic piece. - Andrew C
New FF real time, this search used to work, and doesn't under the new system: FriendFeed - Search - "alert rank" OR alertrank OR vibemetrix OR grazr OR "vibe metrix" NOT "via Google Alerts and AlertRank" - http://friendfeed.com/search...
either they changed the search syntax or they're working out the bugs. That search now only seems to search *for* the NOT part. - mikepk via Bookmarklet

What... the? - mikepk via Bookmarklet
@marshallk there is the danger of "winning" the search market. Why innovate when you don't have to? No one does blog search well
@erickschonfeld will significant and interesting, that is still not a business model. I understand your broader point though.

what issues? I haven't noticed anything. - Adam Jackson
hmm... some kind of interaction between FFox 3.5 maybe. My blog would hang with "waiting for disqus" and a blank page. Restarted FFox and now it seems to be working. - mikepk
interesting, subtle variation on the Firefox icon in version 3.5. I'm sure I'm late to the party. ;)

they added a lot more de'tail' on the tail. - vijay
More detail, and ... shinier! - mikepk
I now notice a little clean-up on the shadows. Earlier versions were flat while the current one has a little perspective to it. - vijay
I noticed that the icon is darker in 3.5 than in previous versions (although that could have just been the betas). - Chris Charabaruk '_'
huh, didn't notice the perspective. nice catch. - mikepk
Upgraded to FFox 3.5. Feels much snappier on Mac. Hazaaah!
Still no sun to speak of. A few brief moments over the past, what? four weeks? June == a wash. Where's summer?
as my friend @e_whitten corrected me, June=a wash (not testing for equivalence) - mikepk
Ok time to take Ajax for a walk. He's starting to get seriously crazy.
