Twitter Me This: Weekly Updates for 2009-11-01

  • Hilarious. @timoreilly trying to get me to dance at the @bing party http://su.pr/A8zq0M. Me running away. http://su.pr/1ZkkTh #
  • I don't spend enough time on Flickr anymore. When did the 'people in this picture' feature get added? Love it! http://su.pr/65KZmh #
  • @baoki: Thanks for the link to @wmmarc's photos. There are some keepers in there for sure. <it was a good time, much appreciated!> #
  • @VDog: Funny. There used to be a time Flickr was the first site I would go to each day to catch up with friends… in reply to VDog #
  • @VDog: Turning off all the lights and hiding in the back of house w/bottle(s) of wine. <kidding> Party on the pennisula me thinks. in reply to VDog #
  • Turning off the tubes to get this stack of work done. #
  • @DellOutlet: We now have it sorted out. See @chrisheuer stream on Saturday for issues. Workaround for something that should be included. in reply to DellOutlet #
  • @CaraMandart: Yes, Wednesday calls for @socialmediaclub chapters. This week at 8am PST, #269.320.8400 / 509633#. Next week, 5:30pm PST. in reply to CaraMandart #
  • is introducing the dog to the pony so they can do a show. #fb #
  • Set appt to see a 'genius' at Apple. Taking bets whether I come with a new fan for my 2yr old Macbook or a new Macbook Pro (or Air). #
  • @katrinah @rstbob @trishussey: Smart cookies, new 15" Macbook Pro it is! :) in reply to katrinah #
  • @trishussey: It looks amazing & can't wait to fire that baby up. Wanted the Air as it's *prettier & lighter*, but need the power of the Pro. #
  • is going to the gym and asks the sky not to fall while she is away as she does not wish to take her phone… #
  • Getting 'spam DMs' from people I know and trust. Account breaches? Sent them all DMs back to confirm, just really odd. #
  • @novaspivack @chriswebb: They *are* all weight loss products spams. Interesting. Twitter hack? in reply to novaspivack #
  • .@novaspivack: @chriswebb and I both ran a Google check and we are NOT alone. Of course, not a peep from the Twitter folks. @ev @biz @jack? #
  • Even more interesting, most of the spam DMs are going straight to my phone. Only 1 showed up in my online account. #nospam #
  • From Google – http://bit.ly/2cGSTs #
  • I feel like Facebook is developing 'features' for Twitter. Every feels half-assed. Like lists. They could be *awesome*. #fb #
  • List request: When I click on a list, I would love to see a master list of everyone on it for a quick scan. Not just their tweets. #
  • List request: Allow me to alphabetize. And change a list name. #
  • List request: Allow me to add the same person to multiple lists with a simple click (some might fall into several 'categories'). #
  • List request: have them all in a drop down. Don't make me scroll. <same for searches for that matter> #
  • And yes, I *do* know Twitter is free, and I should not complain. *However* we have been asking for groups for 2 years. Make it worthwhile. #
  • gets off her short soap box. #
  • wonders why she cares so damn much about Twitter to offer free betterments to their product. Suggestions fall on deaf ears. #
  • @themaria: Whoops. My bad. You are right. An extra click gets me into the following list. Thanks. ::puts glass of wine down:: in reply to themaria #
  • @mickgregory: My husband would say otherwise. in reply to mickgregory #
  • The Bay Bridge closure has put a serious crinkle in my plans today. ::dammit:: #
  • @tbridge: Thankfully, I rarely need to go over *any* bridge, but it is funny the *1 time* I do. Closed. Feel for those who commute over it. in reply to tbridge #
  • @rstbob @itgEvangelist @jvreeland: I remember when Bay Bridge closed after Loma Prieta. That = brutal (I commuted Clayton to Burlingame). in reply to rstbob #
  • Heard 100k more people took BART on Wednesday due to Bay Bridge closure. Wow. Feel for those who don't have 'telecommute' option. #
  • @jvreeland: Lived in Clayton 1977-1992. Pine Hollow (1980-1981) and CVHS (1982-1985). Go Eagles! in reply to jvreeland #
  • And the hits just keep coming –> RT @kcbs_morning: <Currently> 1.5 mile long oil spill on SF Bay from vessel Dubai Star. (via @guruofnew) #
  • @jvreeland: Knife meet <old> heart. Yes, it seems I am a *few* years ahead of you. Ha. in reply to jvreeland #
  • @jvreeland: I went back to Clayton a few years ago. It has completely changed. Interesting to watch it morph into a 1980's Walnut Creek. in reply to jvreeland #
  • Must learn: gym before email, as email before gym means no gym. #
  • A problem with lists: finding the time to finish building ones you start. #
  • A problem with lists: Miss adding certain folks when building a list and them taking an innocent mistake personally. #
  • A friend just summed up what I am quickly starting to discover about Lists: "Only make inane meaningless ones" <– to avoid hurt feelings #
  • @atl: True, maybe should make some of these Lists private until fully fleshed out (if ever). Me thinks there must be an easier way… in reply to atl #
  • I am seeing several people tweeting about how many lists they are on. Making me rethink this whole damn thing. <delete them all?> #
  • @wineevangelist: More work than it should be. A way for people to focus <again> on numbers <don't think it important>. Way to hurt feelings. in reply to wineevangelist #
  • @wineevangelist: In a nutshell, I am NOT a fan. Yet. in reply to wineevangelist #
  • List positive: I DO like I can follow people in a list I am not following the stream. Plays into my 'experiment' earlier in the year. #
  • @thekenyeung: Always comes down to intention. Blogging from an honest place = blogging from an honest place. Just disclose relationship. in reply to thekenyeung #
  • @jenniferjeffrey @kimbui @geekgiant: Yep, 'look how many Twitter followers I have' is now 'look how many lists I am on'. Yuckiness. in reply to jenniferjeffrey #
  • Ok, enough lists talk. Clear I have a love/hate with this feature. Must rethink it all and how <if> I will continue to use. #
  • @hollyhagen: Same. Use 3rd party tools more than web app so mostly moot point anyway. @atl: Simply shiny object syndrome. in reply to hollyhagen #
  • On @socialmediaclub BOD call discussing 501c6 status, new website, ED position and more. Will post summary on socialmediaclub.org next week. #
  • With @Ribbit, BT Is Rethinking Its Voice Business. http://om.bit.ly/YwBLq (via @gigaom) #
  • @micah: My condolences to you and your family on Babu's passing. Losing someone close to you, whether expected or not, is never easy. <hugs> #
  • Bay Bridge update coming at 9am. So we wait. #
  • The #baybridge will remain closed at least through Saturday evening (via @baybridgeinfo). #
  • @sleepydog: Yeah, the #baybridge is a major artery in the Bay Area. There are workarounds, just means adding 1+ hour(s) to your route. #
  • Can't believe I want this bad enough to spend an extra 2 hours on the road, but off we go to see a man about a car. #fb #
  • Awesome. Bessie won't start so there goes the trade in. Any one have a favorite NGO that will accept car donations? #
  • @lgpiper: down for the count for good I'm afraid. She knew. It was time. I was hoping to trade her in, now looks like scrap metal. in reply to lgpiper #
  • Signing on the dotted line. #
  • My prescious http://yfrog.com/7f9ufj #
