You should try laying on a foam roller to open your back up... or a heating pad. - Ariane from Alert Thingy

find yourself a pilates instructor, its a winner for strengthening core to eliminate back pain. - jcunwired

as much as it hurts, do situps - strengthen your abs/core to alleviate pressure that your back muscles are using - jyamasaki from twhirl

Studies have consistently shown that carrying on as normal is better than complete rest or extra exercise. Don't sit very still for extended periods, you will just get stiff. - WorldofHiglet

As a chronic backpain sufferer with a bulged disc that generates pain off the scale: Get advice from a doc, not FF... but you knew that already :-) - Keith Smith

+1 Keith (go see your doctor, Kevin) - Mol, Santa Claws

It's a Nike+ clone. A small dongle senses your movement over the course of the a day then uploads the data to their site where they calculate approximate caloric burn/distance traveled, etc. The differentiator is the size of the dongle. - Chris Weiss from twhirl

It is a sensor that keeps track of you distance walked, calories burned, and other health data then uploads it to you fitbit account. Btw ariane techcrunch 50 is streaming a techcrunh.com - Richard Kannegieser from twhirl

people asked that about twitter - mjc

I would use it daily. - Andrew Leyden

what does it do? - Ariane from Alert Thingy

@Ariane, you need to see the demo to do it justice, but you point your iphone camera at a street and it tells you what every store is, what is inside, what your friends recommend. Point at a wall of phones it gives you reviews of the phones on the wall. It was like the iPhone meets Snowcrash. Definitely watch the demo video if you can. - Andrew Leyden

You aim your iPhone's camera at things and it shows you all sorts of notes and media objects (they call them tags) on top of the images of what your camera is aimed at. It's location based, so if you're in SFO, you'll see notes people left for you at SFO. - Robert Scoble

those who are at TC50 - do they have working demo? can you play with it? - Naor Mark

I missed it too. What is all the hype about? - Roberto Bonini

Sassenach Scouse git - och aye - bludey 'ell - Wash out yer lugs, dae ye hae tatties growing in them? - Chris Loft

I can't out do Chris's British accent, but I will be happy to raise a glass of Guinness in your honor. Hope that helps. ;-) - Catherine Juon

How about Scottish instead? One of my favorites, Robin Williams on golf http://www.youtube.com/watch... - jcunwired

"Bloody hell" is the dog's bollocks. - Chantal

Love accents? You'll love this - Can You Guess Where My Accent is from? Interactive audio game including some of those assorted UK accents and others. Good luck, this is no slam dunk. http://bit.ly/2zjzW2 - Dave Martin

that accent game was cool... - Bren, Not Grinchy

No. Now, put on your passion killers and quit sodding about! - €€€€€€€€

Whoa! "No Veep for you!" - ·[▪_▪]·

How does his private life exclude him from high office? Not that I mind at all, but wasn't that the party line during the perjury impeachment trials? Double standards at work? - Jay Wiegmann

while his wife is dealing with cancer? nice touch scum bag! - Morgan

Personal life and perjury are different. Clinton shouldn't have been on trial for getting a blow job but when he lied, that's a problem. Edwards' personal life matters because it's a reflection on his character. I personally don't put much weight on infidelity but it does have a slight significance and says something about him as a person. And since we are voting for a person to represent us, his personal life matters too. - ·[▪_▪]·

Damn! Dog house is gonna be crowded tonight. - Gerald Buckley

@the1jay Shouldn't really matter unless you're Obama and you're trying to convince a whole lotta fencesitters and Republicans to come over to your side. - Ijonas

He wasn't going to be named for VP slot anyway, its just disgusting that we as a society feed disgusting publications like the National Enquirer so they can go after this crap. - Brad Nickel

Go after what Brad, the truth? - Michael Tefft

Nice. Totally classy - Sean Oliver

So tacky. And while his wife was sick with cancer, too! What a sleaze... - Ariane from Alert Thingy

zzzzzzzz - adolfo foronda

another Democrat... another day - Noah David Simon

these Blue States are so predictable. always the biggest feminazis cheating on their wives. wonder why? - Noah David Simon

Oh Noah, don't know if you are a Republican, but the hypocrisy in that party is so deep and wide I think we will run out of Internet to cover the gay and sex scandals in that party long before we do with Dems. - Brad Nickel

yes I am a Republican. and um... ur not objective here. or maybe u think Jim McGreevey is a Republican. What presidential candidate had a sex scandal for the Republicans? none. - Noah David Simon

LOL I love it when people use criticism of someones objectivity to make their point. That's when you know the conversation is futile to continue. - ·[▪_▪]·

I totally agree. Even Peet's in SF offers free wifi, along with a lot of local coffee houses... Starbuck's coffee is always so acidic tasting... - Ariane from Alert Thingy

aw man, peets coffee is the business! and like the rest of you, it bites that you have to pay for starbucks wifi...i mean, DAMN! - Tofu De la Moore

I was a fan of Starbucks' new Wifi strategy until I started explaining it to my brother-in-law and heard how ridiculously complicated it sounded coming out of my mouth. ("You need a card, and you have to register it online and link it to AT&T. Then you need to keep a minimum balance of $5 on it and use it once every 30 days. Okay. When you get into the store you get an authorization screen... ") Because, of course, it IS too complicated. Free, by which I mean really free and simple to use, is better. - Bill Barol

not to mention the fact that their coffee sucks ass. - Cameron Reilly from twhirl

I agree. I want wifi. - Ryan

And freaking wall outlets. Wifi without power makes me stabby. - Kevin D. White

give me free wifi, and I buy coffee...otherwise, it's on to the next coffee shop I go. - Bob Blunk
