I am alpha testing something that @god gave me. I am convinced that by the end of 2009 we will not get anything useful done. Grrrrrr.

You think friendfeed and twitter take your attention away from the work you are supposed to be doing? They are only the beginning. Soon we will just stop doing work altogether. Sigh. - Robert Scoble
Does it attempt to tell you the meaning of e-life but only gives you a 404? :-) - Dean Clark
I want in! Sounds like a good waste of time - patrick
patrick, include your email address here and @god might give you some of the attention stealing drug I'm using now. ;-) - Robert Scoble
Careful Scoble, "test" that too much and you'll go blind - Craig Eddy
Is it a machine that lets you rewind and fast forward time? That's what I could really use. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
As long as I can still collect a pay check. - Dave "Freedom 35"
Brian: no, it is more like link cocaine. - Robert Scoble
I'd like more things to steal my attention - email is jordanpw at gmail.com :) - Patrick Jordan
Isn't it your job anyway to not get anything done? and help us all live vicariously through your conversations and travels?? - Troy Malone
Sounds like "Red Dwarf: Better Than Life" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - flee! - WoH: Minding her Botts
i like time wasting alphas - dadads at mac.com - planetMitch
Has ff search been spotty for you? Not working for me :( - Dana Fosburgh
Oh boy. I'm already in rehab for my FF addiction. ;-) Can't wait to get me some new digital crack though ;-) - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
Troy: actually, my job is to do videos for http://www.fastcompany.tv -- this isn't helping that mission out. Dana, yes, ff search is bad. They are working on it (I asked yesterday, they said it would be up "soon.") - Robert Scoble
...but I didn't say I didn't want to look at it. And try it a bit. You know, just to see...worldofhiglet at gmail dot com - WoH: Minding her Botts
somehow, this sounds more like hype than anything else. can I please see for myself? dossy@panoptic.com - Dossy Shiobara
can i get some of that action? dimensionmedia at gmail.com :) - David Bisset (sn)
I am in for some link cocaine mbazzoni at gmail - Michael Bazzoni
If this is Gist I'm so mad :P. Seems like they only have like 50 people in their alpha. I would love to get in on it, bjtitus@gmail.com - Brandon Titus
Robert, you typed "I am alpha testing something" and it almost came out, Freudian as it may be: "alpha-tester male" or maybe "alpha-male tester". And it's working for you :) - Micah
Robert Scoble is the best spam bot ever: people give him their email addresses willingly! ;-) - FFing Enigma
Let me guess quake online? - Ryan Cummins
Brandon: Gist.com actually helps you be more productive. This is a total attention-stealing thing. Probably won't be public for a few more weeks. - Robert Scoble
Yeah, me too, jaykul at gmail :-D - Joel Bennett
Thanks for the warning. - Andrew Smith
Ah. I figured it would be weird for you to say that Gist was stealing attention away but it is the only unreleased project I had heard in relation to @god, I think. I'm eager to find out what it is anyway (even though I definitely don't need any help wasting time). - Brandon Titus
Attention stealing drug? More than ff? Put me back on the time stealing slide again. drug hook-up to humanavatar@gmail.com, please. (Edited so @god can find my email address) - Robert Miller
Robert - I love shiny, new things - 1webdeveloper@gmail.com if ya can send that along to @god, I'd be most grateful - Renee Hendricks
This is probably unintentionally turning into an invite request thread :P - Brandon Titus
Brandon: @god has been notified and will be here shortly. :-) - Robert Scoble
@god has left the building (a god has to eat), but he is watching from afar - Jesse Andrews
Finally, the rapture! :P - Brandon Titus
what happens after no work gets done? I'm not sure, but definitely want to know... goatlip@gmail.com - SolidSmack
So am I : leo.lveb@gmail.com - Leo
Hmm sounds dangerous, but intriguing. kevin@klecu.com - Kevin L
Me too Robert monamail@gmail.com - Mona Nomura
sure why not...I'll test if still needed.... slayerboy AT gmail DOT com - Ⓐ ☠ slayerboy ☠ Ⓐ
Early days yet :) - Mo Kargas
We are still working on the product - we've tried to keep it simple, but have many ideas of how to improve it once we get a more than a handful of users on the service (clikball dev) - Jesse Andrews
this all sounds very interesting... if I could get on the beta list that would be great... jmccartan AT hotmail DOT com - John
Robert I can't absorb anymore loss of productivity! Don't tease me!! You know I am a giant lollipop for this stuff :) - Susan Beebe
created a clikball room - come on in - Jesse Andrews
@god blessed me with an invite. You'll all love it. Way better than Twitter. Three invitations isn't nearly enough unless you've already sent invites to Fruchter and LouisGray and LizStrauss so I can share with DerekSemmler and Susan Beebe and who else am I forgetting? - Internet Strategist
Too late, already happened around here. - Martha
Tobert It's okay if soon we stop doing work altogether. Soon there will be no money to pay us for the work anyway. - Michael Markman
Looks like FF is the new simplest way to get testers to jump on you. I love how many are gmail users. Do you still want more users? jaemik at gmail dot com - Jaemi Kehoe
this *is* work, no? ;) - Anthony Citrano
I am hoping that @god sees my email address way up there in the list and sends an invite. :) - Robert Miller
Ok Martha and Jesse - a room with no messages in it? What's up with that? :-) - Internet Strategist
Who do you want to invite? I'll invite someone if they promise to invite Fruchter and LouisGray. - Internet Strategist
Worth a try! ron.delrosario@gmail.com - Ron
@god bless you all, burak at burak dot com - Burak "cyrus" Bayburtlu

I'll take some of what you're dealing, @god :) lindsay at donaghe dot com Thanks much. - Lindsay

Are there Easter eggs??? - JCunwired
Sent you one Jesse and I already invited Louis and Mike. Nation, Lindsay, Chris - you should have invites too. Metalerik it doesn't like your email address; I wonder if someone else sent you one? Yes - I see you're already in. Smart system knew you didn't need one. Lindsay REALLY wanted in - she was there instants after I sent it! - Internet Strategist
Jesse, did you get it or did your email bounce? Did you want one Robert? I figure you do so already sent it - but I may need you to invite someone for me because I just used my last invite this round. - Internet Strategist
I am in -- Thank You! - Robert Miller
++++++++++++++++Wow+++++++++++++++I just got home and see a ton of new people got added. I have some invites too. Thanks @god! I will try to keep up, but have a ton of things to do. - Robert Scoble
Oh, and I told you all it was addictive. Sorry at the loss of productivity that's coming soon. DID EVERYONE ABOVE THIS LINE GET AN INVITE? - Robert Scoble

Screw the waffling. If I don't care for it, it's not like I'll be forced to use it. Regret nothing except what you never did! chris@coldacid.net - Chris Charabaruk
The first one I sent you went through but I got an email bounce message. Double-checked your email address. I'm out of invites. Anyone else needing one should hit up those I sent them to as each of them will have three invitations. Catch them quick. - Internet Strategist
I got Robert's. So am I under embargo by accepting the invite? ;-) - Jesse Stay
As I understand it, during a depression/recession when you see a line, you don't ask questions... you just get in it: godinvite@kshep.net - Ken Sheppardson
