Just sat down and churned out a 38 item to-do list, none of which are frivolous. I have the feeling the list will get longer before it gets shorter...

Item 1 for your list: 1. Enjoy your vacation.

So, after a month off, did you finally finish it, Kevin?
- WoH: Professor MOTHRA

Jtio what checkbox, the one for Protected?
- Steve Gillmor
yes I noted this problem yesterday and today - FF said it could not locate new twitter feeds I wanted to add.

Don't blame Twitter; I just checked our feeds and are definitely sending tweets to Friendfeed, and they are receiving them.

People are also having difficulty following people. I've seen many messages over the past couple of days with that complaint.

Something not working with Twitter? That's truly surprising considering they are the most reliable service on the net.
- Bjorn Stromberg
i log into twitter and start following a user - cool. i go to FF and try to set up an imaginary friend (enter name, select twitter service, enter twitter name click "import twitter" and BAM: "We could not find the given account" whoever is causing this, it sux and needs to stop.
- MikeAmundsen
interesting. I saw that a bunch of tweets seemed to come into FF 30 minutes late yesterday. I wonder if this is part of a strategy on Twitter's part to disrupt Twitter service within FF in order to undermine the competition without coming out and taking the heat for publicly pulling the API from them. I hope not.
- Thomas Hawk
Figures the day I finally give in to starting a FF page and I can't wire up my Twitter account.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
We're running into some rate limiting issues, but I'm working with Twitter to get them fixed. I just put out a work-around for now, so you should be able to add your Twitter account now. Sorry for the difficulty.

JECO Photo, AJ Batac and Nils Sandin liked this
"Hey, I'm the one who wrote this blog post. Happy to answer any questions about it. To be clear. I'm not blaming Walmart that my wife was mugged. These things happen. Oakland has it's problems. Our cars have been broken into at least 5 times and stuff has been stolen. At the same time I think there is a lot of good in Oakland and don't like the idea of simply running away from a community because something bad happens to you. Maybe that's just dumb, but I think it only perpetuates the problem when everybody exoduses a city to leave it to rot for itself. I'd rather work on trying to fix the problems in a community than simply blame Oakland. As far as Walmart goes. They made over $4 billion with a B last quarter. I don't think it's unreasonable for them to have a security guard out in front of a problem store in a tough neighborhood. Several commenters on their yelp page talk about the problems with the parking lot there specifically. I doubt that my wife's is the first bad experience...."
- Thomas Hawk
Imagine how this issue would have been handled in the past. You would have grabbed your sword or your shotgun and went after those hooligans. Now you mount a social media campaign. Interesting...

"hi, I took the photograph. This guy was completely covered in silver body paint which is why it was so easy to contrast him up in post. He was also completely and entirely nude walking on a public street in San Francisco. This is pretty much what he looked like, except in black and white. I shot it with a 135 f/2 lens which is the sharpest lens Canon makes I think. It also has great depth of field -- my favorite lens."

Depends on what type of games you're talking about. I think there's a lot more value in complex tabletop games and games like chess than in dumb Flash games online or whatever.

I have pretty much abandoned gaming in favor of social media. I was a several-hours-a-day PC gamer for 10+ years. I like to think that SM has more possibility of a return on my time investment than WoW did.

Games are a release from the horrible world outside. They can bring joy and relaxation and bring down your stress life. They are a great interactive entertainment media. How is that a waste of time? ;-) Waste away I'd say. :-D

Really, I don't think that matters so much. What's important for our health is to intentionally indulge in completely frivolous "waste of time" activities on a regular basis. Playing games, feeding ducks in the park, blowing bubbles, coloring with crayons. If it feeds your spirit, do it, no matter who says it's a waste of time!
- Ordinarybug Heather
Everything is a waste of time, then you get put in the recycle bin. Use your time the way you want to.
- Sam Levine
No more a waste of time then being on FriendFeed. I can gain social interaction using both and at the same time be happy that I took something away from each. (No matter how trivial, it's still a small sense of accomplishment and fun.)
- David Cook
Thanks for participating guys. Appreciate it! :)

It has been argued that humans are "homo ludens" more than they are sapient. That said, I personally find that they can easily become a time tax, and tend to avoid them, preferring to spend that time on more solidly creative activity.

They kept their internet socializing separate and Carlotta had a private stream here on FriendFeed so many of you would not know him nor he have an easy way to let everyone know.

The common thread running through all of these portraits is superlative design. Each is a masterpiece in its own right, from the medieval painted portraits right up to the most current photographs. This collection is arranged in alphabetical order and is by no means complete. We encourage you to post comments as to which portraits we’ve missed, that you feel should be part of this collection."

It sucks that lightroom won't render noise reduction / sharpening at fit view. 1:4 is the next best way to see it rendered.

George, this was from earlier. I think it's probably been fixed by now.

I can't reproduce the results either. Even more proof that Google's damage control department works real f-a-s-t
- BLOGBloke
I can reproduce these results (as it's fake). 1 - Do a google search for 'balck people stole my car' 2 - when the results come back, in the search box type 'white people stole my car'. 3 - Screenshot and fool everyone.

Thomas...ah...I was catching up on my feed and didn't notice when the message posted. Still, I have noticed different results when using Google from: the browser search bar, going right to google.com and when logged into google via iGoogle. Weird.

What a horrible argument she's making. Did KCBS pick up this story because of your campaign, Thomas?

In part. I'm pretty sure they used my recording for their broadcast. But I think it was Shaun Dakin CEO and Founder of Citizens for Civil Discourse and the National Political Do Not Contact Registry that pitched them on the story. I've been working with Shaun to try to build awareness over the illegal robodialing problem.

Automated Flickr Help by Email Message #2.jpg - http://picasaweb.google.com/thomash...

why does flickr keep telling me to use the help forum in their automated emails to me when I am banned from the help forum. How can I use it if I'm banned from it?
- Thomas Hawk
Because they're automated emails and the automation software doesn't know you've been banned from it?
- Jandy
maybe they should change the message to suggest that people who are not banned from the Help Forum consider using it? It reads funny when you're banned.

Glen it's stupid that Flickr censors crap like this. It's not going to get any better if people just ignore it.
- Thomas Hawk
Don't know which is more offensive (neither really to me), but there's very few cases where blanket censorship is good.
- Joel Lovato
Neither is offensive.
- Mary B: #TeamMonique
agree Mary and yet one is being censored by Yahoo.
- Thomas Hawk
One I would let my kids see. One I wouldn't.
- Jesse Stay
you know, it is funny, I'd have no problem taking my kids to the Art Institute of Chicago and walking through galleries with paintings like this one. On the other hand, I seem to always pause whatever I'm watching on TV if they come into the room and I think that they might use the word fcuk.
- Thomas Hawk
Funny how Yahoo seems to feel the need to protect the kids from paintings in museums but their CEO can publicly represent the company in a way that would be far more offensive for most parents.
- Thomas Hawk
Heh, hypocritical, eh, Thomas?
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
Jason, context indeed is key. I suppose that Bartz's comments were far, far, more public than my little photo would ever be. To me that only lends credence to the point that my content is likely to be in aggregate far, far, less offensive than her content. Hypocritical indeed if you ask me. I had a friend who had his account deleted without warning for swearing at a flickr staffer in a...

I suppose I could Stephen, but if they felt that I'd purposely went around their block, I'd worry that their reaction might simply be to nuke my account. They've made it pretty clear that I'm not allowed in the help forum. Apparently they don't like dissenting opinion there about some of their policies and procedures.
