I can't stand using my Nokia phones for Twittering, but this sounds like it's a pretty good app so I'll have to try it out. - Robert Scoble
@scoble In general, do you find yourself using your iPhone or your Nokia N95 more? I don't hear you comment about your iPhone much as of late. - James Heck III via Alert Thingy
Seems to work well on my Treo. A PLEASURE to finally get replies! Thanks for the tip! - Jeffrey Sass via twhirl
So I get that a robust Twitter app is nice, but what happened to using SMS or IM with Twitter on a cell phone? - Phil Glockner via Alert Thingy
Phil, slandr has all the twitter functionality so is much more useful that SMS on a phone. By all means text a quick tweet or reply but you can't do anything more involved. - Colin Walker
I just wish it had number shortcuts for Home, Replies etc. (press 0 for home, 1 for replies...) and there is no delete option that I can see. It's a bit fiddly on a touchscreen but everything is navigable by the Dpad or you can always get your stylus out!!! - Colin Walker
Colin - ok, I think I answered my own question -- for those of us who follow hundreds of twitter users, turning on SMS for them all isn't practical. So having a separate data app makes sense in that respect. - Phil Glockner via Alert Thingy
Aha! @roelandp has quick access via number keys on his to do list now :) - Colin Walker
Very nice, and a much needed mobile web app. Thanks! - Dan Nimtz
It's good. And it works under Opera Mini 4, which is very important, at least on my phone. - Morton Fox
Very nice. I was frustrated using the mobile version or Twitter on my Blackberry with Opera. This adds a lot of nice functionality. - Kevin Shannon
I must agree, going to the beach would be a tough job for any of us. My heart goes out to Robert Scoble. He is living the internet/social networking version of "Dirty Jobs" - ron k jeffries

Wow, your tweet makes my day seem really boring compared to yours ... ok "beach trip with a bunch of Swiss geeks" really takes the cake! - Susan Beebe
I'm getting loopy. After seeing Susan's comment I thought it was "beach trip with a bunch of Swiss cakes" which doesn't sound too bad at all. http://www.littledebbie.com/pr... - Vince DeGeorge
I love @SlideRocket!! neato! I am actually plotting out another preso this week... neat upload your PPT and share link. now i need to learn their tools, lots of cool animation features. - Susan Beebe
Pretty amazing resolution and interesting to look around. Looks like the guy with funny socks, reading a book dropped his pager. 2 people are enjoying bottled beer (a Guinness and Sam Adams). Two 2-tops have a person on the cell phone -- just plain rude. The top of the stairs is a bad place for that fan. What I'm wondering is if the older married guy got that ladie's phone number... - RandaL Hicks
photojojo tells me even private spaces are public if they are open to the public....... ianal - paulm
You have the right to take pics, they also have the right to ask you to leave. What the guards did may be bad publicity, but it's not illegal. However, they had no legal right to ask him to delete pictures. - Paul Holbrook
We live in an asymmetrical surveillance society. They (government and corporations) can take pictures of us, but we're not allowed to take pictures of them. Interesting. - Mark Logan
You never really know _who's_ watching. Found a refn off of @geekdave 's blog. http://www.google.com/search?q... If you remove everything after the IP address:port you'll get a livefeed. - RandaL Hicks
I understand the concern of the phtogs, flip side you have to see how what looks like high quality imaging can be seen as a first step to an attack - because it often is. GEtting pissy with the rent-a-cop is just silly. Leave, get a lawyer if thats what you want. - Soulhuntre via twhirl
Old-school journalists hate having to put up with old-school rules while new-school journalists get to play by different rules and make a ton of money in the process. - Robert Scoble
Hmm, I don't know. It seems like Wired is just obeying the "new school" rules - that separating news and opinion isn't necessary any more. - Ian Betteridge
Without taking sides (although I do have to admit I don't think even small investments are good in industry one covers) this feels overall like a lot of posturing between rivals in the same space (arguments read within that context) - Alex Hammer
Does it make a difference that the companies MA has invested in is only "a handful" of the companies TC covers? What if that number was 25%? 50%? 75%? - Shey
I was going to write otherwise, but yeah, there really is a conflict of interest. No matter how many disclaimers you put, whenever you say something good about that particular company, there will always be some sort of doubt over MA's stance. It comes down to the reader to let it pass or have an issue with the matter. One way or the other, Wired's way of handling things was out of line. - Rodrigo Jaroszewski
I have had nothing but great banter with Schiffman @ Wired: http://snurl.com/28un0 She seems to have a great head on her shoulders. That being said, so does Michael. - www.MarketSaw.com
Loren: the N95 is better because it works with AT&T's 3G in the USA. Jonathan: if you don't care about 3G, the N82 is a better phone. But, that's a big "but." For me the N95 is better because of that one feature. - Robert Scoble
Is that an AT&T issue? A different 3G spec? Or is the phone not 3G capable in the States? I ask cos' it's HSDPA-enabled here in South Africa... - Andre van Rooyen
Neat. I've wanted somewhere I can upload some audio clips to :) - Jake Fudge via twhirl
Drop.io also one of those entities that understand how to connect with people these days, they're on Twitter (@Dropio and @Dropio_support) and responsive. - John Ferringer via twhirl
I love drop.io. The conference call number is still there. You have to assign an admin password to the drop and log in to see it. They had an open conference call last Friday. Anyone could dial in and ask questions. After the call I recorded a little audio update, using drop.io to summarize what was discussed. http://twurl.nl/w83quy I'd like to see some Twitter integration. Now they let you subscribe to a drop via email, I suggested letting you automatically send a Twitter message when the drop is updated. Since then I've seen just a few little things I'd tweak. Their embed code for audio, does an autoplay. If you want to embed them in a blog and you have more than one, they'd all start playing. Other than a few small things, the service is great. By the way, try uploading a small video file. I uploaded an AVI file, they convert to FLV and let you embed the file. Really cool stuff. - Kevin Shannon
It's cool. It gives me a nice geek buzz, but I can't figure out what to do with it. It doesn't integrate with anything else, after all, other than the cool but non-xml compliant upload widget. - Rick Powell
I bookmarked the site a few weeks ago when they announced free faxing...a fax machine is something I hardly ever use & don't want to pay a monthly service for. - Paul Arterburn
I love drop.io as well. When Pownce announced their file-sharing slant on the service, I immediately thought about drop.io to fill that void. Definitely one of the better services out there! - Bwana McCall
Video comments are going to be on lots more blogs now thanks to partnership with Seesmic and Disqus. - Robert Scoble
I'm not sure their spread is a good thing - I can scan a comment, I have to watch a video - Andy Davies
Andy: yeah, that's true, but some people I've learned I like watching cause they are entertaining in video. Also, if we're talking about something visual I'll fire up video comments. - Robert Scoble
I absolutely love DISQUS! More features will come definably. - Svartling
Once video comments catch on, maybe we'll start comment tagging, comment tag rating, comment tag grouping text comments, too. http://tinyurl.com/64vf3d - ydfeed
Another one of those where "like" isn't exactly the right meaning we wish to convey. I hope they are able to save as many as is humanly possible to save. - Rodrigo Jaroszewski
Instant messaging is mainly useful for one on one chat. Twitter is for one to a gazillion chat. They are different animals. we are not all Robert Scoble. ;) - ron k jeffries
