Sigh.
- Veronica
Yeah, I was wondering how you were blocking yourself from my timeline. :(
- Jason Wong
This is very annoying to me.
- Veronica
yes. I thought it was tweetdeck at fist, but its not. she just does not seem to be refreshing right now on my timeline.
- Carlos Urrutia
At least you're in the biz and know who to call...
- Jason Wong

How does Twitter expect you to command your minions with bugs like these?
- Paul Reynolds
And yet there sometime is some kind of double post in Facebook
- Jerry Perez
I don't tweet so I would not know
- VAL D. Zone
That's a pain. I can't say I've noticed your disappearing act, but I use brizzly, I dunno if that makes a difference.

Amy: did you see her tweet about answering as eric cartman? :)

Amy: weird. maybe its only affecting some of us then.

Maybe one of their servers is on the blink or something.
- Amy
i guess so. still, annoying though :)

I had that same problem was @leolaporte. I had to re-follow to get it to show.
- Nolan Alston
Hmm. It looks like there are millions of Twitter feeds I'm not showing up in.
- aldenoneil
And by minions, I of course mean Fee.

Will you guys let me know if I pop back into your timelines over the next few days? It was a known issue and they've been working on the fix.

Are you frickin' kidding me? I have to pay $900 a year or whatever astronomical bullshit charge Apple has for MobileMe just to sync 1Password between machines? That pretty much makes 1Password expensive and useless all in one go.

Are you frickin' kidding me? All I had to do was a simple Google search to solve this problem? That pretty much makes 1Password viable and me an idiot all in one go.

o.o I only pay $99 a year.
- Danny Minick
Danny, I'm a ridiculous Apple fanboy and I still can't justify MobileMe.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I use Dropbox to sync the 1Password.agilekeychain file between machines.
- Nolan Alston
Yep, thanks Bruce! It works like a champ. I now FINALLY have a reason to use Dropbox.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I don't need to sync anything.. it's all stored on my network :)
- alphaxion
My laptop isn't always on my own network.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I should have mentioned that it's also accessible from outside my network too :)
- alphaxion
I think they want you to use MobileMe.
- Cristo
alphaxion, if only I had a dedicated IP address.
- Akiva Moskovitz
dyndns and an updater app solves the issue with dynamic IP addressing from your ISP... I used to use "username.dyndns.org" with my old ISP. Some routers even build in support for it now, too.
- alphaxion
Never been a fan of dynamic DNS services. Also, I'd hate to rely on my crappy Comcast connection especially since my upload rate is so beastly slow.
- Akiva Moskovitz
You could just remember your password.
- LogEx
ah.. comcast.... yeah, you're better off with something else, and this is someone from the UK knowing how bad they are! ;)
- alphaxion
You should just post the password on your website so you can always look there to see what it is.
- Cristo
I'm doing the MobileMe trial now, only because it's free and I wanted to see how the locate my phone & remote wipe worked. But I don't use it for files, especially anything as sensitive as my passwords.
- LogEx
There's another reason to use Dropbox I'll pitch you on later.
- Bruce Lewis
from fftogo
LogEx, here's hoping you don't use the same password on every site.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Bruce, sweet. Can't wait to hear it.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I don't, I use dozens plus variations (it's not critical after all for casual service passwords to be highly secure). But it's rare that I have to look one up, particularly for something I use with any frequency.
- LogEx
Well, luckily I'm not installing this on your computers then.

I was going to post a random hash and say it was my password, then realized that http://randomhash.com/ is NOT taken. I don't want it, but i thought it was interesting.

Gina's Twitter analytics tool seems like a perfect candidate for Google App Engine -- http://smarterware.org/2877...
- Ken Sheppardson
Historically there have really been two distinct classes of Twitter 3rd party apps - those that drive participation/traffic to the site (e.g. 1,000 different clients) and those that try to extract some value from the stream (e.g. analytic tools, search engines, firehose based Track serves, etc.) Seems they've been much more supportive of the former than the latter.
- Ken Sheppardson
yeah, totally agree ken

That makes sense though Ken. I can think of some great ways to make money by extracting value from the stream
