Bah. Stay retired. You had the big teary farewell already, don't come back and then do it again next year or something stupid. Thing I hate most about sports: big, showy retirements that last all of 6 months. - Derek

If you want an Orgoo invite I just signed up using the link from Webware which is still working - http://www.orgoo.com/Signup...
I got one through Mashable. I think TechCrunch had some too. Not sure if either site has any left at this point. - Derek

i have tons of invites, e.g. brightkite, jaiku. i need toluu or socialthing. my email address: upimchen at yahooooo dot de
and i can share mento invites :) - Timo Heuer
socialthing on the way...! - Andrea Hill
nothing here yet. did you changed yahoooooo with yahoo and recognized "de" ? :) - Timo Heuer
Timo, Toluu invite sent. Could I get a Jaiku invite? derek.tallon at gmail.com - Derek
Thanks for the Toluu invite, your Jaiku invite is sent out, too. :) - Timo Heuer
Awesome. Thanks a lot. - Derek
Derek
I have 3 Toluu invites, and 5 Socialmedian invites.
Socialmedian sounds like a reddit type site. me.at.work (at) gmail, por favor? - Tom
Got it, and wow it's awfully written. The profile page right aligns the word city, then below it left aligns the box. It's like it's really horribly word wrapped. This is acceptable even in an alpha, to have a series of fields (not even ajax, just regular textareas) all out of whack? - Tom
yeah, the profile settings page looks like turd. for those wondering what is being talked about here's a screenshot: http://www.mattshaulis.com/socialm... (is that your experience as well Tom?) The best solution till they fix that grrrr-ness is to use ctrl/cmd and the minus key to size down the text until it lines up enough to be usable. then press ctrl/cmd and the zero key to bring it back to default when you're done **this could be very easily fixed, you decide if its acceptable to you - Matt Shaulis
I'm pretty sure my Socialmedian invites have now expired. - Derek
looking for a toluu invite: ben [at] benbinary.net thx! (not anymore thx to Derek) - ben bloch
Invite sent, Ben. - Derek
Thanks Derek, you rawk. - ben bloch
@Matt: that's exactly my experience, yes. - Tom
And now I am out of invites for both sites. - Derek
Matt Hooper
Brightkite invites to give here too.. 5 left from memory!
Could I grab one of those? derek.tallon at gmail.com. - Derek
Ok Derek - sent now :) - Matt Hooper
Fantastic. Thanks a lot! - Derek
now 4 left :) - Matt Hooper
Matt, i'd like one please, thanks ;) - corrie
Matt, I would appreciate an invite as well. Thanks in advance. - Mathew A. Koeneker
Corrie & Mathew, you need to post your email addy. Please do so and we can send invites unless you already got them. - Mark Krynsky
I would greatly appreciate an invite. :) reetva at gmail.com - Ethan
Ethan, invite sent. - Mark Krynsky
Hi Corrie and Mathew - yes, need an email address in order to send the Brightkite invites.. - Matt Hooper
Derek
I just remembered that I have a bunch of invites to Socialthing if anyone's interested.
I was kinda interested in SocialThing but I thought it looked like FriendFeed. Isn't it just friendfeed? - Tom
Yeah, it's the same idea as FriendFeed, but last time I checked it had a lot less websites it could draw information from. - Derek
Actually, Socialthing & FriendFeed have some distinct differences I wrote about them here http://lifestreamblog.com/stop-th... - Mark Krynsky
Ah, well there you go. Good post. - Derek
So, uh, me.at.work (at) gmail then? I wanna see this :o - Tom
I'd be interested in an invite. rossi.daniele>at<gmail - Daniele Rossi
@Tom I sent you an invite. Daniele, looks like someone invited you as well. - Mark Krynsky
Thanks Mark. I'll try Socialthing over the weekend. - Daniele Rossi
Got it. I don't like that it forces a last name field. I'll give invites out now if someone asks, unless you wanna get rid of yours first. - Tom
Sorry, I got sidetracked at work with...well, work, so I missed these. And whoever gets to the requests first seems like a decent policy. - Derek
Long as you post that you invited someone. - Tom
Mark Krynsky
I have 3 Toluu invites - http://www.toluu.com/
send one to me.at.work (at) gmail please? the idea of a social network for rss feeds makes me OGC - Tom
@Tom, sent you an invite - Mark Krynsky
Got it. The OpenID signup is broken, but still. I've got 3 invites now, should I let you exhaust yours or should I invite someone if I see it before you? - Tom
i would like a toluu invite - rsz200 <AT> yahoo. i have twine, social thing, and brightkite invites. thanks - rob zand
Hey Tom, you had an invite and OpenID wasn't working? What OpenID provider do you use? I will check into it. - Caleb Elston

Invite sent, Ashton. - Derek
