And it is running as slow as this turtle. (That's my wife's hand. )Actually it's just firefox that is hogging the cpu. No time to play today. Tomorrow is another day.

The turtle in this pic, (my wife named him sam) is upset that he would be associated with Karmic Koala. He has since disappeared. Ubuntu 9.10 is SLOOOOOOOW. - this new Dell PC running Dual Core Intel 2.5ghz and 3 gig ram is running like a 1.3 ghz celeron with 512m ram, with one application, FireFox 3.5 open. System Monitor is showing the 2 CPU's taking turns hitting 100% utilization....

I switched over to vista. the processors are now at 3% wish I had more time to experiment. It almost appears to be a video issue. EDIT It's not FireFox, Moving the mouse causes the processors to hit 100% utilization. EDIT 2 - I have no audio after the upgrade - time will tell what will become of my Komatose Koala Ubuntu

Update, I downgraded to Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 and all is well. (Blew away the partition and reloaded from DVD) I left a 2nd partition open in case I want to run 9.10 side by side with 9.04 at a later date.

Many people on FF have protected updates on Twitter, can't add them.
- Mike Nencetti
Yeah, manual stinks, and using someone else's means you will have people you don't follow and missing some you do. I'd like to see an app to sync up other service friends to Twitter lists, so for example, I could automagically have all my FF friends added to a Twitter List.

I made a list of 80 or so Friendfeeders. I will add more tomorrow. it is time consuming.
- Mike Nencetti
Using FriendFeed's lists as the starting point is very useful. If you curated those lists, just move them into Twitter.
- Louis Gray
Note to self, when building twitter lists (I have to talk about it here, have to be hush hush on Twitter) check the number of tweets the person has. Over-tweeting is noise.
My friendfeed group looks fine, my other test group is well.... a bit of a mess... basically just one person who tweets every 5 minutes.

No point in having Twitter lists, Robert Scoble does it for us. He reads everything and passes on the good bits. Just read Robert, you get the news save a whole lot time to get on with your real life.
- Gilbert Harding
I suppose you are correct for a tech list. I still need to make a FriendFeed list, and a local people list. There is more to the net than tech.

I just sent you an invitation to Wave. “Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick”. I was waiting about a week for my invite.

My wife and I took an hour long walk on the greenway. Yes this is another cheezy blackberry pic. One of these days I will take photography seriously. I think I need a camera first.
- Mike Nencetti
In a moment you would get that all these photos already done jillion times before and even more after :) http://www.flickr.com/search... The main thing is not to lose heart and keep going to find your own passion.
- Artemko
I agree, I don't need a hi res camera. its just that there are certain moments, like this one, when I wish I had one.
