How to watch a movie: “Remember that everyone in the theater paid for their tickets, just like you did, and they are hoping to hear the movie, not you. Talking during a film is one of the best ways to communicate to others your own status as an ignorant boor. If people are talking behind you, try asking them to be quiet. If that doesn’t work, complain to an usher and then take a seat elsewhere in the theater.”

Changes and more changes. NetNewsWire officially closed their cloud-sync and have shifted to Google reader to sync feeds. Somehow, I never warmed up to Google reader. But then, there is Feedly, which I just started using, which also syncs with Google reader and is *such* a pleasure to use.
Yet, I think it eats some of my feeds and being what it is, I cannot refer to old feeds unless I mark them. Even then, it’s misbehaving a bit.
Then of course there is friendfeed which I am trying out now.
Changes, changes, changes. Sigh.

Does your Twitter ID create a further challenge for people to reply to your tweets? How long is your ID – and how many characters do you limit folks to? Add an extra character to your id for the space that follows and three, if they have to RT.

I am working against the cosmic default. The universe, I have been told is against my ideas and my plans. I have chosen to rebel. I worry not about the consequences. One word echoes persistently around me: junoon. What is the value of undying passion, determination, and vigour? Will it show?

This is a classic wow moment. WordPress for iPhone 1.2 is the best. Landscape editing, edit posts, and support for comments. The iPhone just became more valuable and nice. Cheers!

Tomorrow is already yesterday and should have been here today! Loves this idea, that Toni posted: http://tr.im/ho8y. Wonders why such simple technology (think about it, it is pretty simple, if backed by real venture money) is still limited to a lab.
