Pausing the Twitter updates on the blog

May 26, 2007

May 25, 2007

Unfortunatly stuck with less-than-optimal seat mates for the next 3 hours. #

Get your Virb on

May 22, 2007

Props to Mark Forman for the gentle reminder about Virb. It popped up on my radar the other day but I didn’t pay it much mind. As Mark says:
It’s like Myspace for adults
Mark is kidding a bit, as many of us adults (including him) have Myspace profiles. But Virb feels different. And it looks a [...]

In what might be my biggest boneheaded OHMYMYGODPLEASECOMESTALKME move, I’ve signed up with Plazes. Why? I’m really not sure, other than it seems kinda cool. And you know me and things that seem kinda cool…

Re-thinking Twitter defined

May 18, 2007

A reader of my blog who we’ll call Janice Oglethorp, even though that isn’t her real name (her real name is Dani Cutler), recently asked me this question:
I read your blog entry about re-organizing Twitter. What did you mean by that, if you don’t mind me asking?

Commentary space – That spot behind me where the old calendar used to be is the perfect place to hang up a graphic for the thing I’m talking about. I feel like a TV journalist.

Balticon schedule posted – with extra time!

May 12, 2007

Paul and crew seem to be running Balticon with a much tighter ship than I’m used to. Quite often, I get my con schedule days before the event. All to frequently, I first learn of when and where I’m I’m supposed to talk when I check in to the con. But not these folks. My [...]
