Twitter Me This: Weekly Updates for 2010-02-14

Loving the Jay-Z/Rihanna opening video for 'Run This Town Tonight'. #sb44 #
Not going to tweet the commercials this year as I am sure everyone else in Twitterland will cover it throughly. #sb44 #
I am thinking Colts will win this game, though would love to see the Saints pull out a win. <prediction: Colts 31, Saints 24> #sb44 #
RT @epodcaster: You can change someones life. We're trying to do exactly that with http://bit.ly/dru4CS for @hugs4holly. Join us! #
@doverbEy: My heart is rooting for the Saints as NOLA is a special place to us as well. Agree that town could use some good juju. #sb44 in reply to doverbEy #
1st year in more than I can remember we are NOT hosting a SB party. Just me, Heuer & Quickbooks. Feels a bit odd, but highly productive. #
Barenaked Ladies show TONIGHT in SF benefiting Haiti, organized by Alice & Gowalla at Infusion lounge. http://bit.ly/cgCB3g /via @smcsfsv #
Wow –> would make me buy an Android. RT @chansearrington: Google working on voice translator phone <speech to speech>. http://bit.ly/crWu9Q #
introduces fire to her ass. #fb #
@mmWine: Ha. No. Just busy work week. Need to hit some milestones. <and make sure others do too!> in reply to mmWine #
RT @chrisheuer: It's time for us to find a grant writer for #smcedu so we can hire @yongclee to grow it beyond its grassroots. Suggestions? #
According to a friend's AT&T experience, having 38% dropped call rate is not enough to allow her out of a contract. /via @tombiro #attsucks #
Internet Trends. Nice Visual Presentation. (via Paul Pruneau) http://bit.ly/bHKgZI /via @donthorson #
is heading North to get @chrisheuer, then to Infusion lounge we go for Barenaked Ladies concert (benefitting Haiti). http://bit.ly/cgCB3g #
Free Barenaked Ladies concert by Gowalla and Alice Radio (@ Infusion Lounge w/ @chrisheuer @Xtel and @amberkharrison). Thanks @hoomantv! #
Bare Naked Ladies take the stage. http://yfrog.com/3lnglij #
No one rhymes like BNL. God I love these guys. http://yfrog.us/izn85z #
Crushing on Ed. #barenakedladies #
Just met the Bare Naked Ladies. *swoon* <hey Ed, call me. Ha> http://yfrog.com/auy8mcj #
RT @Ribbit: How To Kill Twitter –> http://bit.ly/94Jnwv by @DaveWiner <benefits to competition in the marketplace, users win> #
Recap of Mon's #smcedu chat. Social media in the classroom…what's the incentive? http://bit.ly/bqFzmw /via @yongclee #
Congrats to @ewagoner and his Mrs. on the birth of Juniper! http://bit.ly/cN9G2X #
RT @Scobleizer: Catch the buzz at the Google event this morning. It's streamed live at http://bit.ly/c8cWia (starts at 10 a.m. PT) #
@CloudMarc: Word on the street is status updates within Google Apps (Gmail, Docs, etc). Going head:head with Twitter. #google in reply to CloudMarc #
Step 1: Boil water. Step 2: Walk away from stove for 45+ mins. Step 3: Hear strange crackling sounds. Ignore. Step 4: Buy new tea pot. #
@awoods @susanbeebe: I used to be able to claim I could <at least> boil water. Now that statement is no longer true. #
No doubt –> RT @jtoeman: yet another way its clear google's no apple: their event is starting late. #
Funny –> RT @kevinmarks: says @elatable "live-blogging isn't real-time because I can speak faster than you can type" http://bit.ly/c8bDvs #
Google Buzz? #
Auto following…NO!!!! via @google #
I don't want ANYTHING done automatically. I have emailed 10s of 1000s of people. I do NOT need to connect to them ALL via Google Buzz. #
Oh wait, Google Buzz only picks the people I email the most. Ok. ::breath slows:: #
thinks Google will own all of our asses within the year. #
Though I HATE email…I love the Buzz integration in the INBOX. So. Damn. Smart. #
The '@' reply is smart too. Now…how do I get the people I follow on Twitter into Google Buzz easily? #
@oppliger: Not sure Google Buzz can 'kill' Twitter or Facebook…but it will put a dent in their activity streams. in reply to oppliger #
@qarout88: Notifies you of posts via email, but highlights with an icon so it stands out more. Opens within email. Contained = Awesome. in reply to qarout88 #
You can follow along the Google Buzz press conference at http://bit.ly/c8cWia #
Can use Google Buzz 'on the go' at google.com, buzz.google.com and maps.google.com –> sweet #
Now Google Buzz is coming after Foursquare and Gowalla. Holy hell. #
Google Buzz: And here is how we are going to go after Yelp… #
I am excited and scared shitless all at the same time watching this Google Buzz press conference. #
Google Buzz begins rolling out to users starting at 11am PT. Expect to see it within the next couple of days. #
Funny @vicg is on stage promoting the openness of Google, but all I saw in the last hour is how locked into Gmail I just became using Buzz. #
@adrielhampton: Agree. Google is using 'open' verbiage a lot, but think they are lacking in that part. Hope I am wrong. in reply to adrielhampton #
It is only a matter of time before they integrate Google Voice into Buzz. Conflicted. #
Good question from audience: Google Buzz is amplifying 'noise'. Need something to help sort through it. Filter. Rank. [hello @my6sense] #
@Boogenstein: Agree…though I am conflicted as my client, @ribbit, has a competing product. Ha. Not. in reply to Boogenstein #
Sergey seems to hate to say the word 'Facebook'. #
RT @bradfitz: Google Buzz code site: http://code.google.com/apis/buzz/ PubSubHubbub both in & out! /via @atl #
The web goes silent as millions of people check their Gmail accounts to see if they have Buzz. #
@jrmiller: Don't get me wrong, I have long asked for 1 platform to control my networks. Just having a 'be careful what you wish for' moment. in reply to jrmiller #
Good commentary on Google Buzz over on the @techcrunch post –> http://tcrn.ch/cvKleG #
Also @jrmiller: The REAL scary thing is using all these Google products *for free*. You are shit out of luck when you need REAL support. #
@itgEvangelist: Agreed, which is why I find it scary for businesses to depend so heavily on Google/free products (mine included). in reply to itgEvangelist #
is moving from Google to SxSW. Happy we are staying for music this year & can't wait to share details on the #smch in Austin. OMG. ::drool:: #
@rynda: Counting on you being there. <hugs> @troyworman: Living life through the people we know. I do it all the time. in reply to rynda #
puts on her tennis shoes and heads to the gym…only 7 hours later than planned. #
RT @smcsfsv: "Everybody's Doing It" post-Valentine's Day chat w/ @violetblue @jennifered & more Tues 2/16 in SF. http://bit.ly/d7JNBU #
@anniekatrina @Sherry78 @jensmccabe: Love the encouragement…thank you. I rarely find time for *myself*. Need to make that a priority. #
Logged into Gmail this AM and found Buzz. I also found 100+ Buzz items waiting to be reviewed and thought…time to close Gmail. #
RT @chrisheuer: New @socialmediaclub Post – #SMCEDU Needs a Grant + Our Purpose and Goals. http://su.pr/1mtAGu #

Nice –> Dear Hallmark, if you make a card that doubles as a vibrator I may start believing in Valentine's Day. Love, Me /via @vdog #
RT @JeremyMeyers: Now that google is microsoft and apple is google its gonna be interesting to see what microsoft becomes. #
Sending birthday hugs to our girl @springfever who makes me laugh out loud with every tweet she posts. #
@themaria: "You don't". in reply to themaria #
One of my favorite 'socnets' of all time –> RT @laughingsquid: happy 6th anniversary to @flickr http://bit.ly/9dZMBu #
At the @SFAMA event talking the power of effective (or not) ad campaigns. #
Three questions for each ad: Is it effective, does it lie, and how would we improve it? #SFAMA /via @CoryOBrien #
Theme for this years Superbowl ads: cute animals, babies, boobs and midgets. #sfama #
@jeffreymcmanus: I love how you roll. in reply to jeffreymcmanus #
Panelist feels Budweiser ads are a black mark on America. Interesting. Let's raise the bar people. Drink Newcastle. Ha. #sfama #
OH: Budweiser ads are nothing but dick and fart jokes. #sfama #
Telcos pay attention: @Ribbit for Windows 7 helps carriers boost revenues & add more value to subscribers. http://su.pr/6iTXVx [client] #
YES!! Surf's up – 99% chance Maverick's will be held on this Saturday. http://bit.ly/ct4nBy /via @jhagel #
@CoryOBrien @khartline @mark_hayward: Lived in this area my entire life & have never caught Mavericks. Pints at the brewery afterwards? #
$50M for technology or talent? Surely not for users. RT @TechCrunch Google Acquires Aardvark For $50 million http://tcrn.ch/aCkLQd #
Hey @tbridge and @tiffany, meet @gtcaz. Nice guy moving your way. Any living in DC tips for him? <bonus: he drinks beer too> #
is very happy to be part of such a warm and giving clan. #awesomesauce #friendsbetterthanfriendz #fb #
discovers Amazon sells music for $0.30 LESS per song than iTunes. Wow. #
@adrielhampton: I have a $46 CR in iTunes. Wish there was a way I could transfer the funds to Amazon. Good to know for future purchases. in reply to adrielhampton #
@ErinNorton: For $0.30 less a song, I can wait an extra minute for download. @jamesjyu: Adopting your practice me thinks. #
is very pleased with her iTunes purchases today and now has a never ending stream of Lady Gaga and Rihanna to keep her going… #
@jshuey: Ass to alligators today. Are you around tomorrow? Call me to discuss further. I'm turning off internet for a bit to finish project. in reply to jshuey #
@jolieodell: Sending a virtual hug and a 'kick ass' thought your way. WTFs are draining, but part of the life we lead. in reply to jolieodell #
@Nathalief @ingridtappin: Once SMC's new website is completed, that request will be an easy one to solve. Now, it will take me a few days. in reply to Nathalief #
has much to tell about her experience building a new site for SMC. Had too many 'want to kick Drupal developers in the nuts' moments… #
@anniemal: You broke that hat out in the daylight? Rawk on with your bad self. in reply to anniemal #
Amen sister! RT @jenniferjeffrey: Gonna make Friday my bey-otch. Let's do this. #
@JackiePeters: I like Jing for screen captures. http://bit.ly/yKxw4 in reply to JackiePeters #
wants something really bad, but wonders if 'putting it all on the line' is really worth the risk it brings. #
lets go of the dream of buying *the* ski haus… #
@podcasthotel: Yeah, another good half glass full statement. Mt. Hood would be good. We will plan it. in reply to podcasthotel #
absolutely adores her realtor (Alison Elder). If you ever want to buy in North Shore/Tahoe area – she is your 'go to' girl. Seriously. #
RT @mavericks_surf: #MAVS forecast guru Mark Sponsler's final pre-contest weather update…gonna be big and gnarly! http://myloc.me/3LdX5 #
Heading to Half Moon Bay to catch a little of the #MAVS. #
Waking 18 miles to get to the bluff… #mavs #
Sitting on top of a hill with 30k people watching ants skim the white caps. #mavs #
Surfers next to me say waves are breaking between 30-40 feet. #mavs http://yfrog.com/auiqssj #
At Half Moon Brewery with a table for 6, who wants to join us? (sun shining, fresh beer on tap, watching contest via ustream) #mavs #
First @Mavericks_surf contest photos (none of the rouge wave that injured 40 yet) http://twurl.nl/x7hzk4 #mavs /via @Ross #
is home from the beach. Happy to have some 'sun' time this weekend and we were able to put a few more miles on Tess. #dropthetop #
