Yesterday I went surfing, thanks Luke Kilpatrick for taking me out in huge waves. It’s not as easy as it looks and I’m sore today. Oh, and this is a test of FriendFeed’s email feature. I just sent this to share@friendfeed.com and we’ll see if it goes up. - Robert Scoble from email

So does this mean you're breaking your week-long FF/Twitter fast? ;) - Brett Kelly

Liked that you went surfing, but incredulous that it took you this long to try share@ - FFing Enigma

Wow that looks like fun and share@friendfeed.com worked perfectly - Peter du Toit (S.Africa)

Just for a minute. This is a cool feature. - Robert Scoble

GREAT!!!!! - Ronald

so where is your iphone and video camera crew :p - Darren Stuart

If the yo dawg memeage wasn't DEAD <wink> there would be a surfing while you surf thing going on here =) - Micah

Darren: this was taken with Luke's Palm Pre. Who needs an iPhone? OK, I'm outta here. Just needed a quick hit of Real Time web to keep me going. I was starting to twitch there for a second. :-) - Robert Scoble

Very groovy Indeed! - MrGroove

I used the feature yesterday, it didn't work for me. I tried twice though. - Tibor Holoda

Awesome! - zedomax

Let's see some Scoble-diving - Danny

Did you go out at Mavericks? I hear that place legendary, and deadly! - dthree

How tall is that board? Or are you under 4 foot tall? :) - Patrick Jordan

at least Robert looks like a fish - Thomas Power

nice board Robert - Miguel Rodriguez

Tibor: it will only work properly if you're sending from on of the email addresses that you have on file and verified in your FF account. Double check and make sure you it was the correct address and that the same address shows as 'verified' in FF. - FFing Enigma

Robert, try sending a voice memo to share@ from your new iPhone. The quality is amazing and it attaches in FriendFeed, just like photos. I'm told soon they'll stream straight from here as well. - Jesse Stay

Ha, Scoble doing Mavericks, um hum! - JimmyJet

Appears to be a longboard, has a wood laminate look. - JimmyJet

Tina: Thanks, but i did check that. Used two verified addresses of mine, none of them worked. Strange. - Tibor Holoda

Cool, don't give up, surf every day you can. You will love it! - Eduardo Sasso

That's a nice ride! And lol @ thinking any surfer would take a newbie to Maverick's. I doubt I could even swim out to the break at Maverick's, let alone ride any waves, but scoble's more badass than I. - Lo the Baker

Nice! I just came back from my first lesson in Pacifica, loved it! - Yousef

One of those 'tiny' waves at Mavericks http://bit.ly/qXFTT - JimmyJet

Robert! So this is like twitpic for FriendFeed? Yahoo! I gotta get this set up on my CrackBerry for the weekend! Mahalo dude! Enjoy the waves and keep practicing... for Hawaii! - Arleen Boyd

me surfing (http://picasaweb.google.com/stephan...). you know, just in case this becomes a meme. - Kelly Norton

The board is a 9'4' Jeff Hakman, Hawaiian Pro Design, it is a wood veneer, but real wood none the less. It is a Surftech epoxy wood series. Check it out - http://www.surftech.com/tech... - I took Robert out to the Half Moon Bay Jetty, it was supposed to be small but a great south swell hit at about 6pm. I tell the whole story here http://www.lukek.ca/?p=348 - Luke Kilpatrick

Peter: I would love to join the geek dawn patrol in SC, I try and surf SC once a week. Mind sending me a dm with details? I will do my best to bring Robert as well. - Luke Kilpatrick

I think that it is a Hakman board and a sweet one at that. :-) - Mathew A. Koeneker

Well I'll be darned, I thought from the pic it was a classic board. Thanks for the link and info Luke. - JCunwired

Rumor is (read it on TMZ) that the board in the pic is a short board. - Jack&Cleo

Mathew: My mistake, the name is usually so covered with wax that I misspell it. I love this board and it seems to be the one in the photo of every person I take surfing with me, I think I have about 6 different people in the same pose as Robert with that board. - Luke Kilpatrick

Nice board, wetsuit and booties Robert - but Luke says you have a big stick, whats the connection? - Geer

awesome board - Bren

Geer: Surfing has its own language, that has never really been fully captured by the mainstream. A stick is simply a surfboard, a big stick is a long board (aka a board over 9ft). A common phrase is "wax up the stick and go catch some swell" which to many non-surfers wouldn't mean much but to a surfer its the best part of the day. - Luke Kilpatrick

Luke: you mean surfing like in these pics? http://picasaweb.google.com/giseke... - Geer

Geer: Sorry, didn't look too closely at your profile, Awesome waves! The ones at the Princeton Jetty last night were close to head high and closing out hard, those look just perfect overhead with nice offshores. Jealous! Send some of that swell, water and winds to CA please. @surfergrrrl, one of my best surfing buddies is goofy foot and insanely jealous that you NZ guys have Raglan. There isn't a left point break here of any quality for hundreds of miles. Santa Cruz is land of the right. - Luke Kilpatrick

I have been liking this website. http://www.surf-forecast.com/ - Mathew A. Koeneker

read somewhere there's a motherboard with a webcam - Peter Harris

Mathew: http://magicseaweed.com is also a good site - Geer

did i mention i live in maui hawaii? suckas ;) - Tyler Gillies

I have never been surfing before. Something for my Bucket list, I guess - Kreg Steppe

Luke, tks. for board info. Scobleizer kicked off a great thread. Love the water, surf music, beach scene. - JimmyJet

Kreg: If you are ever in SF send me a dm or email. Always happy to take people out and get them worked on a bit by the pacific. - Luke Kilpatrick

I miss Robert on here, place seems quiet. - Mark

Btw, every time i look at the picture i see Robert with a giant banana ;) - Tibor Holoda

I see gdgt.com has launched but has crashed. Isn't it a rackspace account? - Mark

Mark: only live.gdgt.com is hosted at Rackspace. gdgt.com is not. http://www.whoishostingthis.com/gdgt... shows that. - Robert Scoble

Awesome Rob, the bit Rackspace hosts performs perfectly and the part it doesn't fails epically ;) - Mark

There is an account waiting for the taking their Robert. I remember the Apple coverage, the pages loaded INSTANTLY even with millions of users. - Mark

YES! i heard of Arrington surfing on his vacation to Hawaii....now @scobleizer ! Hell yeah...glad you had fun...hopefully this catches on as it is very therapeutic ....Surf off between tech leaders! - shayne catrett
