From Twitter 09-24-2010



looking forward to singapore #f1 this w/end esp. with weather. work tomorrow, but should be good for w/end
@SuperR0B wired in-ear works for me with ipad/phone etc, but for PC I have plantronics 995 (with mic) - initially for phone but also music.
@SuperR0B For me it was the ability to stand up/move around on a call without tripping on cable that was key.
RT @TaimurAsad: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is now Richer than Apple CEO Steve Jobs, Gates Still Tops the List !! http://t.co/3RBSTCL
makes you wonder (ref last RT) "Like most other billionaires, Zuckerberg is a drop-out"
RT @samj: Facebook | More Details on Today's Outage http://goo.gl/teXV <- Facebook DDoS'd themselves using their own clients? #fail
Interesting to read the writeup on the FB outage -- a useful lesson for design. and good on FB for describing it so we can all learn.
Wonder how Voda's 3G net coverage/speed compares RT @tracyandmatt: Vodafone Mobile Wi-Fi Review http://bit.ly/crEQx3
This w/ends racing is going to be super with ham, web,but,alo, vet all up there. Would really like to see WEB win tho like mcl team.. #f1
@_MissAnnie_ Thanks. My first #FF of the day, beating @AdamManning this time. Must do mine later after work
failed to write my blog post on last weeks @ThreeUKLatest meetup - must go on tonights todo list..
decided I need to start work my 8 today. Reading RSS feeds & Getting some tweets in quickly..
Still keping an eye out for an article like "@bebroadband launches fttc" or "@skyhd launches fttc" :-( Maybe an xmas present? #speedfreak
Google gearing up more with their appstore - now (US) merchants can sign up to sell apps (preview version) http://bit.ly/d8fLy9
Useful page from google -- anything "new" is going to be posted here http://bit.ly/dc73ij
Not ideal for gaming perhaps -- but this is a serious rig http://bit.ly/dpFG4y #ibm #mainframe #z196
Work connectivity not working well. Local router? vpn? Grrr..
lots of timing out on intranet access. Umm..
wonder what the optimum time to allow milk to soak into an apricot wheat is for best taste. too little - like biscuit. too much - soggy ?

laptop screen annoying again.Just because it's lighter outside I have to move to a dark room to actually be able to see screen. This is cr*p
Isn't even sunny. #laptop #fail
@SlyRenard Lenovo W500 and the screen is *really* poor in terms of brightness. My kids laptops/netbooks *easily* outdo it many times over
@SlyRenard One of my colleagues did have a colorimiter so was going to check/calibrate and if below spec send for repair.
@SlyRenard though I think it's just not very good. Keep getting close to reraising issue - fine for all else but screen so important
Always get frustrated when someones rationale 4 doing something is "I just do as I'm told". Something I'm never good at (and proud of that!)
@Amy_Walker Glad that worked. Plan B involved a large hammer ;-)
@FakeDAmbrosio not me btw, try @Planet_F1
@Amy_Walker that could be very scary...
@sxa555 Well I have this insane idea that we actually get paid to question ... ;-)
definately a downer to working on a friday... missing #f1 practice. Cant listen and work, too distracting. Is it davison, chandhok or both?
@Sara_Kim reckon you should...
So WEB did well. Good stuff. must catch up on the news after work
@OzoneVibe I'll keep quiet until I figure it out later!
Caved in and taking 1/2 or full day off work next fri. As well as eve tw-eat-up got invited to free lunch... (colleague's 25yr celeb)
has the ability to add friends on #digg disappeared, or have I mislaid it ?
found the menu item in digg. non obvious
notice lots of ppl trying "first 5 followers" - not for me failing saying may be due to having too many followers...
@Jodie_kemp does it end "and they all lived happily ever after"?
lunch over. wondering whether to put off email even longer (yes!) and carry on with useful productive work ;-)
love the way rational team concert makes a hyperlink if you type "enhancement #1234" or "defect #5678" when typing in notes :-) #swdev
Work, dinner done. Now the weekend. :-)
@vixisabel Many thanks for the #ff #FollowFriday
think son is planning to ditch #symbian / S60 for android. I'd go same if hadn't switched to #maemo. Wonder if #N8 can save S60..
good -must have play, but not convinced by symbian any more RT @thenokiablog: #Video Amazing facts about Nokia N8 camera http://nokb.ly/wc
RT @eric_andersen: Yes! "Twitter is a great place to add a personal touch to your brand" http://j.mp/aHRtV2 Great example of this? @onef ...
@eric_andersen definately it's the attraction for me as a consumer
feeling very out of touch with #f1 events today. That's what you get for working+household duties doing dinner...
@fradgepick think we figured on 7pm but some ppl eating from about 530 #Tweetup @icicle_halo_ @amandagolding
@fradgepick @amandagolding @icicle_halo_ I've now got a lunch invite too so taking 1/2 day (or full) off work. could be a long one!
@craigmullins @geekstats Who issue around "licensing" of content (movies, music, software books) wrt "used" sales/ownership. Rocky times?
@MummaBear I'm sure they grow/replicate ... one moment pc, video consoles, then phones, then picture frames #fb.. just goes on!
@MummaBear best thing I did recently was switch desktops to Gb lan & upgrade from small nas to WHS box. Gr8 to move/serve stuff quickly #fb
@Amy_Walker (your spec) + (lightroom) = does not compute..
@MummaBear think I saw last night some article reporting mobile penetration as 150% or something. Useless stat but get the point ... #fb
@Amy_Walker Using triple core 1.5yr old 4Gb system and that's slow at times (for photo/heavy stuff) and hit max memory limit
I liked a YouTube video -- Dog Confused By Escalator http://youtu.be/dOwLtahtmHg?a
@MummaBear I used to have a buffalo linkstation, switched to a windows home server - HP EX490 at xmas. Real neat for backup+sharing
@MummaBear though it took me a while to feel comfortable getting a windows box. High end nas's neater but too £££ (4 me) #fb
puppies getting rather lively. more play fighting now. nearly escaping from whelping box #puppytime
have to play taxi at 0645 tomorrow am so going to get an early night
