Prefer your shorter version without sound Josh!

Agree, lack of sound makes it work well.

In my "my discussions" feed, this post comes up just below the multiple spinning heads of Josh Haley, and for one brief moment Josh and dancing girl were rotating in sync. It was the most exciting thing to have happened so far today.

Just one question, Josh: are you by chance spinning on 9 different Aeron chairs that were a steal after the first dot-com bubble burst? The future of the internets: you're looking at it =)
- Micah Wittman
Bingo!
- Josh Haley
could anybody describe how to create such a picture? thx
- Arnaud Fischer
Arnaud, see http://friendfeed.com/mokarga... for tips. And Josh correct me if I'm wrong, he uploaded to Twitpic the same animated GIF 9 times, then created a friendfeed post and attached all 9 images by URL (instead of choosing images from his hard drive). Images coming from twitpic, soup.io, etc will animate, but photos hosted by friendfeed itself won't.
- Micah Wittman
Hahaha, nice :)
- Simon Wicks
Sir... my muse

@Micah: awesome, thanks!

It's infinitely more amusing when they don't all load at the same time. Spinning chaos!!!
- CAJ, somewhere else
Why the friendfeed limitation on animated .gifs? It seems arbitrary and odd to me. I could see wanting to limit filesize (animated .gifs can get large) but you can upload huge .jpgs without any trouble.

- Fa La La La Lindsay
Thanks, Lindsay! :) I think that's the first time someone described wanting to systematically hit me on the head repeatedly, yet have it come off as a compliment. I would love to take credit like I was Andy Warhol or something, but alas I was just tired and felt like doing something silly. :p
- Josh Haley
from iPhone
yep, what Lindsay said. That was one of the first bona-fide instances I've seen of using Friendfeed as a medium for net art. You could get in the Whitney & stuff. GOOD JOB
- Kamilah Gill
LOL! I actually didn't mean it the way it came out (the hitting you on the head part, the compliment part is ok ;)). But I'm in tears laughing when I read your reply. Whack-a-mole always frustrated the heck out of me... I did a lot more staring than hitting when I tried to play. It was mesmerizing.

I've had to do that.

I still have my father's number and my friend Eric who died right before Thanksgiving.
- Derek Coward
I just went through my contacts and saw I have 5 people in there who have died in the past year. It will probably help my peace of mind to delete them.
- Trish R

- Shevonne
Nope. Also haven't deleted them from LiveJournal, Facebook, etc.
- Rochelle
I did, but after a bit. I didn't take out my grandmother's number until we had sold the house.

My Aunt has left my Grandfather's name on the phone number, for 20 years now. It's most disconcerting when Caller ID pops up with his name.

I just cleared out a bunch of dead weight from my contact lists.. granted I don't think any of them were dead.. yet.

I left both my friends in for a while and only took them out when I switched phone. Felt it was 'time' to let go. I still have my grandma and grandad set as both their names, even though my grandma has now moved & changed her number.

Yes, I eventually delete the entry. It's sad, but part of the process. You'll know when it's time.
- Chris Baskind
The past few weren't deleted until I got a new phone.
- Yolanda
I had a good buddy who died in 2005, but I do not feel like deleting his info yet.

I have three dead friends in my contact list. I leave them on as a memorial. Every now and then I come across their name and pause for a minute and remember them. Then go on with my day.

My aunt actually still has a voicemail from a cousin who passed away about nearly a year ago.
- Jimminy Fuller
I have a relative who thought she was getting emails from her sister from beyond the grave because of the way the iphone address book works (even I wasn't sure what was going on at first, but it had something to do with the domain of the email from being the closest partial match to an address book contact).
- Micah Wittman
Nope.
- Mona Nomura
Yes, after some time, from my phone or email clients. But, probably will have a copy of a contact list somewhere, e.g. a hardcopy stuffed in my bag which is rarely updated, or an .csv file saved in a folder for backup.

MF/Kol = I live in Kingston on Thames. It's OK apart from the traffic (continually gridlocked) and the shops (girls just lurve them). Handy for getting into London both airports and out to the Thames Valley for work type things. Richmond Park and the river in walking distance is great too.

I've checked rental prices in the area several times over the last 2 years and Teddington is definitely cheaper. I'm not buying, no way I can afford that. ;-) All a pip-dream anyway, need a steady job and I've not had that for a while. :-(

I've done this in Doctors offices.

I already have one. With 75 people spread across 6 cities and lots of remote workers, paper doesn't do us much good. Drives ink salesmen nuts. "What do you mean you never print?!"
- Alex Scrivener
Must say, i've been thinking of writing somthing like that for a while.
- Roberto Bonini
One issue I see at mid-sized software companies are people that want to print EVERYTHING. We often have meetings where we go over design docs, etc. It's much easier to go over paper docs than to lug your laptops around. I also find it a lot easier to make handwritten notes. A good tablet computer would allow me the convenience of both. With a screen the same size as a printed sheet of paper, I'd never want to print anything else out.
- Tad
from fftogo
I've been using my Lenovo X61T for close to three years now. I love it. Although as to using it as a tablet, I don't use it so much. I now only pull out the pen as a mouse when in the tablet mode or to sign a PDF. Other then that I use other applications for notations, and meetings.
- CW™
Definitely. There are times when i need to hold paper. Notes for exam revision are a case in point. You don't need the iTablet. You could use a Kindle DX for Documents.
- Roberto Bonini
Other than production scheduling which I phone in and someone hand writes the order I use no paper personally. I also sometimes call to have an administrative assistant send a fax for customers that do not use e-mail happens rarely. The only real issues are documents formatted by proprietary software and the occasional internet service or hardware brownout. My improvised system could certainly be improved though and I am one of the few that have implemented the majority of my workarounds.
- Eric Logan
BAH. We have been there for a while. I can't remember the last time I printed anything for work. Heck - the last time I printed anything period was a year ago when buying my house and I needed to print and sign a document.
- Sparky
I still print quite a bit in my line of business; less than before, but we'll always need paper documents. There will be no paperless office.
- Kittyburgers
Tad - why do you want to add handwritten notes? Don't you type 2342342x faster than you write?
- Sparky
Type on what? I don't want to lug my laptop to meetings where we just go over a document. I take a printout and then make (usually a small amount of) notes where needed. There's no typing to be had. I'd rather have a tablet where I can view the non-paper version of the docs AND make handwritten notes.
- Tad
from fftogo
I think it'll be a minimum of 10 years before most small medical offices are completely electronic. (Gotta wait for all the old school docs who don't know how to use a computer to retire.) And it won't ever be completely paperless until you get all the pharmacies and insurance companies/HMOs/IPAs on board, too.
- Victor Ganata
The paperless office is something that's been spoken of for some years, and some of my clients seems to generate more and more paper not less. However, I seldom print anything. I use Google Calender, and Reqall, and have no use for a wall calender. I scan stuff I receive into the computer as a PDF and import it into Evernote. I do howver, keep a notebook and pencil on my desk, as I mostly find this quicker to use than any notebook app.
- Ian May
As someone who is instructed to repeatedly print things out for a few minutes' use, and reprimanded for double-sided printing, I welcome the day!
- LAST DAY OF WORK
If you use the phrase 'lug' with a laptop then you bought one that is far too heavy. Get an ultraportable for notetaking in meetings.
- Sparky
Before, the obstacle was technological. This is almost a moot point, so the last hurdle is generational/cultural. Interesting observation, Tad.

Dear fellow countrymen, Now you have learned that with the combined powers of Facebook, Amazon and our credit cards, we can take almost ANY song from our past and propel it once again to the top of the music sales charts, even at Christmas. Use this power wisely, my friends, lest it be our undoing.
Rage against the Machine's "Killing in the name..." is acceptable, you chose wisely. This would not have gone so well if, for example, the Fast Food Rockers had been chosen. Well done, fellow brits, well done.

Do you think knowing famous people makes you a better person?

Is one of your goals to meet lots of famous people and then tell other people you know them?
- Cristo
Definitely ... too bad I don't know anybody famous.
- Brian Sullivan
When you give examples or tell a story, do you try to weave in famous people that you've met?
- Cristo
Brian, you must not be trying very hard then.
- Cristo
No, hell no, and definitely not. I know a handful but go out of my way to ensure their privacy is not violated. A big step is not bragging about knowing them. Besides, I feel most are better off because THEY know ME! :)
- jcunwired
Do you trust someone more because they say that so-and-so famous person told them something? E.g. As I was sitting next to Rep. X on the plane they said that the FCC is going to make Twitter the official US micro-blogging service.
- Cristo
I think getting to meet and/or hang with rich/famous people gave me an opportunity to get a perspective on what really matters (to me), so, in that sense, I think I've gained something as the result.

Not a goal to meet them, but I'm related to a semi-famous person so sometimes I talk about him, but definitely not a goal.
- Jimminy Fuller
Famous people, no. Interesting people, yes. Some of the interesting people I've met happen to be famous, but that's not what I have usually found interesting about them. I've taken things away from those meetings that have made me a better person.

It depends on the person. And how much you let someone influence you. But I'd have the same answer if you removed the word "famous."

Do you like to read blogs where the blogger is constantly talking about all the famous people they've met, as if that makes him an authority on everything?

What about a technical & social media blog?
- Cristo
If the famous person has access and knowledge of pre-released products, maybe. Angelina Jolie had one of the Palm Pre test devices. If the blogger got some inside scoop on that at the time, then I would probably read it.

I think knowing exceptional people makes one a better person. Doesn't matter if they are famous.

Somerimes Its good for me to talk to someboby rich or powerful or famous because I find out they have problems too, sometimes same as mine sometimes different but just enough so that money, fame and power didn't solve it all. This forces me to quit whining and man up. Of course visiting hospital has a very similar function ;)

If you can learn something from "famous" then it will make you a better person but that can be said for any person. It all depends upon that famous person.

Man Dies After Choking On A Bag Of Weed - http://www.youtube.com/watch...

Stephen Mack liked this
"Bay County deputies say a 23-year-old man who was shocked with a stun gun died after choking on a large bag of marijuana during an attempted arrest. According to The News Herald, Andrew Grande ran from deputies who responded to the scene of a reported physical disturbance early Friday morning. Grande was later confronted by the investigators, who saw him try to put something in his mouth while he struggled with them. Grande broke free from the deputies, who had managed to put one handcuff over his wrist. Authorities then used the stun gun. After Grande was shocked, deputies noticed that he appeared to be choking. They couldn't clear his throat with the Heimlich maneuver. Grande was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead."

- Tyson Key
Bamboozle!!! I bet you ain't old enough to remember DOWNLOADABLE COMPUTER SOFTWARE on teletext though are ya? Okay, so you needed a BBC Micro with the appropriate plug-in device to pull the data from a teletext broadcast, but it was still pretty cool.
- Slappy Line
Indeed, I think it was possible to "cheat" at that game by hitting the Reveal button, on certain remote controls, too. I knew about the BBC Micro software datacasts, although I've never seen the actual process take place...
- Tyson Key
No, nor have I - I only had an Acorn Electron at the time. I may not have gotten any software over teletext, but I did "download" some off the radio - that required less-specialised equipment: A loader program (which you could get from the BBC), a radio capable of receiving radio1 without too much interference, and a cassette recorder.
- Slappy Line
On that note, in certain regions with certain transmitters (Bilsdale in my case), it was possible to view certain technical/system status information on high-numbered pages. Not sure which ones, although they were within the range of 700-899 or so, if I remember correctly. A test page was also rumoured to have existed on page 284, according to http://www.mail-archive.com/backsta....

Looks like the VBI-based TeleText in DVB encapsulation method (DVB-TXT) is documented at http://www.etsi.org/deliver..., which satisfies my curiosity at least. Shame that it was never implemented for FreeView, although I believe that it's used for some Sky/DVB-S channels.
- Tyson Key
Ooh, cool. Time to go dig my old analogue TV out of the cupboard! Teletext was an amazing invention - whoever thought of using offscreen image space to carry data was a genius (and probably inspired the guy who thought of using unused signal strength data space for SMS messages on the mobile phone networks). I was really surprised that more wasn't made of the service with the advent of digital TV, but I suppose the internet was already quite a big thing by then.
- Slappy Line
I've heard that the legacy subtitle service will continue on page 888, although I'm not sure what the future holds for the Ceefax service on the BBC's analogue terrestrial channels. Still, that's pretty much dead in the world of DVB-T and DVB-S... :(
- Tyson Key
Hmm, I don't pretend to begin to understand how teletext is carried in multiplexed digital channels (just another stream or somesuch I imagine). I know that when I used to have Sky (the old analogue flavour), the TV's own teletext decoder worked fine (SkyText and others) Quite a few channels carried teletext content, but it wasn't much more than a "what's on" guide on most channels, but now we have EPG's in our STB's :-)
- Slappy Line
I imagine they'll take the 888 subtitles offline when the digital switchover is complete - assuming that DVB carries subtitle data like Virgin and Sky do.
- Slappy Line
Heh, I get so excitable talking about old-school geekery :-)
- Slappy Line
DVB subtitles are interesting, as far as their implementation goes. Instead of consisting of textual data with formatting, they're actually bitmap images of pre-rendered text - thanks to the need to deal with international character sets, and some ridiculous rights issues related to typefaces that are used, that have persisted over time.
- Tyson Key
@Slippy Lane - Given that FreeView, Sky and Virgin Media are all DVB-based systems (DVB-T, DVB-S and DVB-C respectively), I'd assume that the subtitling system used would be pretty much identical. Where it gets complicated is the interactive applications and datacasting stuff, like the "Red Button" services (e.g. BBCi, and Sky Active), in which case everyone's using a diverse set of open and proprietary systems...
- Tyson Key
(In Sky's case, that's the misleadingly named OpenTV; for FreeView, it's MHEG-5; and for Virgin Media, I'm not too certain, although I've heard that it's HTML-based to an extent).

For those who're curious about the feat of engineering that was the original TeleText specification for analogue transmission, I've came across a copy of it at http://www.themm.net/~mihu....
