Enjoy! (oh yeah, pack some tire chains for driving in snowy roads!)

When you pass Magic Mountain look to the left and say - "Hey, someone I don't even know who reads my FriendFeed lives somewhere over there!"
- James Hull
Yep, just one wife. Heading up the grapevine now. Warning signs for icy roads. I can almost taste the Tommy's burger less than an hour away now.
- Thomas Hawk
The goal is to shoot 10,000 frames min on this trip which should result in about 1,500 finished photos.
- Thomas Hawk
Yes the snow was amazing in the SFV yesterday. Here's my photos http://flickr.com/photos... Where are you going to be Thomas? Perhaps this calls for an LA FF meetup while we have your presence locally.
- Mark Krynsky
This reminds me of a Normal Rockwell vacation scene
- Susan Beebe
Wow that's a big load, where do you put the luggage? I'm picturing the Partridge Family bus cruising down 101.
- Jeff P. Henderson
Been offline, did ya score a 5DMII in time?
- Ryan
No 5d yet for me. Offline a bit myself though, feels weird being less connected than I normally am. Got an email from someone that Getty has begun contacting flickr photographers, but no time to follow up on that online.
- Thomas Hawk
Thomas, hurry up and get your Canon 5D MkII! :P
- imabonehead
Taylor: here, here! I would like a friend to get one of those as well. ;)
- Melanie Reed
Someone on FriendFeed posted a wrap-around tripod, I'd like to get one of those.
- Helen Sventitsky
I want a wind screen cover that I can put over the flip and it will keep wind noise down.
- Tony
That dang Flip. I want a camcorder and people keep steering me toward the Flip and I'm resisting. That's my story. The end.
- Rochelle
It's a pocket-cam. There shouldn't be any accessories. For feature additions.. 720p60fps option, LED light, global shutter (opposed to rolling shutter), photos, optical stabilizer, Mic input, MP3 recording, able to be used as a webcam, SDHC slot.

I remember going to this gym in San Diego, CA. It's real.
- Taylor
Yeah, even I have seen this image say around 4-5 years back.
- Sudar
I used to go up one escalator and then down the other in five-lap reps. Then I'd take a little breather and eat a Krispy Kreme donut. Then do another rep. After doing ten reps, I'd feel like a new person! I used to do this five times a week. Exercise is great!
- Akiva Moskovitz
Best part of my day so far: I earned a "favorite" from Thomas Hawk for one of my Flickr photos! The day can only get better from here. :)
- Kevin C. Tofel
thomas, i'm still confused why you enjoyed the first picture i took with my cardboard iphone scanner so much...
- Kyle A Koch
I live about 15 miles from the epicenter. I had just arrived back home, and felt a little vibration, heard a rumble, then SHAKE, then OK we're done. Time elaped about 20 seconds. To quote someone at Variety: "The earthquake had a nice balance of entertaining and not-destructive." I've felt much worse and much longer quakes. A couple of things on shelves fell over, but no damage. A house down the street is being moved, and is up on blocks getting ready. It was fine.
- Jim Bergman
@Scoble - I am serious. I jump out of bed at 4:30 am Mondays rip roarin ready to go. When I spent time with the Edelman family last week in Chicago it only got me even more fired up. http://flickr.com/photos...

Having to work on a weekend. And mean people...

The same as Paul, simple, and efficient :)

Ctrol-Apple-D - looks up the definition of any word your mouse is hovering over
- Patrick Lightbody
there are keyboard shortcuts? shoot! I just switched to Mac, forgive me :)
- Zach Landes
Ctrl-space (the default setting to activate quicksilver). If you like keyboard shortcuts, and you haven't tried quicksilver, I would highly recommend it. Basically you activate the app, start typing and it searches applications, bookmarks, documents, and all sorts of stuff (all customizable), and gives you a list of them in a window, and then a list of available actions, like 'open', 'send e-mail', 'calculate', or 'look up in dictionary'. Really cool, and free.
- Robert Felty
ctrl-space with quicksilver. without quicksilver it would be shift-apple-4

from twhirl
Kevin, Thanks for the cntl-opt-cmd-8 tip. I was just getting annoyed in this coffee shop trying to find the cursor in google docs. This command just solved this for me.
- Jon-Paul Bussoli
Another reason why I like friendfeed for procrastination. It even helps my work! heh.
- Jon-Paul Bussoli
Just in case any of you have yet to find them all, open Keyboard ShortCuts in Keyboard & Mouse Preferences.
- John Lam
Apple-Tab for me. BTW, Ctrl-Apple-D does not work on all words, for example, fails in twirl for me. Otherwise, I didn't know that option so THANKS!
- Ivan Stegic
from twhirl
command(apple)-shift-/ opens help, and help goes and finds every other command in every application. i use it like i drink water.
- Michael Staton
Ivan: the dictionary service will only work in Cocoa- or Carbon-based applications. Non-cocoa/carbon applications like Twhirl (based on Adobe AIR) don't have access to it. One of my major sticking points in using ported applications.
- Mark Trapp
I use the 'capture' dashboard widget for screen capture. It has some additional options, like choosing how to save it (jpg,tiff,png,gif,pdf) the size (in pixels), and the quality. Pretty handy.
- Robert Felty
Thanks @Amit. From the guys that do Quicksilver. Nice. (Though ^⌘⌥8 is easy, and I don't want to stay in that mode for a long time. Just enough to give my eyes a break.)
