Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-08-23

  • @htfb can you have chips? We just had chips. #
  • The new bedroom is now more or less half painted; the carpet is part-removed; some livingroom holes filled. Not half bad. #
  • My sinuses have gone ballistic, though, maybe with paint fumes. At least my head still feels more or less clear today. #
  • Not sure how I feel about either "socialnomics" or the overexcited visuals/audio, but: #socialmedia food for thought: http://bit.ly/2DDCCH #
  • Photo: Happy couple and mother: eustatius posted a photo:

    Russell, Elaine and Russell's mum http://bit.ly/DrjHO #

  • @wesayso you'd need to chase up on the site. Still dizzy from the visuals. More reliable: what @darwin sent to @torchbox http://bit.ly/dC20V #
  • Cup of coffee, lovely (if gentle) ride in, defined problem set, whizzy JS UI work on top of it. Did I die and go to heaven? #
  • Belated "aye" of vague support to @rhodri. It would've come sooner but @griffinkate and I have had teh #swineflu. #
  • http://chippingnorton.net/ styles itself the "gateway to the Cotswolds" pointedly missing Witney off its map. We've got your number, Chippy. #
  • Not only does #Flash mean we must revisit all our accessibility battles, we also have to rediscover privacy protocols. http://bit.ly/3apGlN #
  • @claypole you starting? Bar Izi, now. Bring your broken Smirnoff Ice bottle and your 'ardest mate. #
  • @griffinkate we've had nothing RT-worthy from @glinner recently so we're reduced to hanging off your every word. #
  • @wesayso is it really *snobbish* to want to keep the plebs out of our playground? Well, yes, it probably is. #
  • @wesayso the beauty of Twitter is that it's a self-assembling set of networks so we need never know of the existence of people not quite OKD #
  • @hatmandu Leafield of Dreams #
  • @hatmandu The Blair Wychwood Project #
  • @htfb @hatmandu All Swell that Lower Swell #
  • @griffinkate you mean they're more than just an iTunes playlist after all? #
  • @wesayso unfortunately you can't get self-assembling networks from Ikea. They all have to have instructions with that little cartoon man on. #
  • @robertDouglass we've found OR-based subq's with #apachesolr module hooks work OK but the overall q logic can get quite convoluted. #drupal #
  • @robertDouglass giving the visitor the power of #apachesolr AND/OR/extended syntax at frontend is great right up to their first syntax error #
  • #nhsideas ask lowest levels of staff what the most annoying parts of their days are. Collate 10 "popular" problems and solve them. Repeat. #
  • @j4 it's not, but the NHS is notoriously top-down in its initiatives (witness the disastrous NHS Spine) just because it's the way govt works #
  • Eschewing instant messenger statuses as too easy to ignore, I'm going to get a placard saying "ON LUNCH" and put it round my neck like a bib #
  • @griffinkate @vigornian "oh, the sandwich board are meeting here today, ha ha ha. The room's really *filling* up, ha ha ha." #
  • The fact that @twfeed won't let you convert a non-OpenID a/c to an OpenID one means I've already had to re-request my password. #fail #
  • Now to wait quarter of an hour while the email finally plops through my SPF-protected mail host before I can actually cocking log in #
  • Delicious Ernest Marples frees the postcode with Drupal: Project to provide free postcode services to t.. http://bit.ly/2vSyfS #
  • gg.google.com, once again slowing down the entire map-based web. #google #fail #
  • @dracos I'm not disabling Firebug while I'm developing. Google Maps can play nicely with development environments or it can... oh, I dunno. #
  • @dracos think I'm on the most recent version. But you're right: I can disable only the script debugging and it looks OK. Ta! #
  • @damiancugley we came up with some decent Form API conventions http://bit.ly/RIQ4F But not for hooks within hooks, sadly. Several diagrams? #
  • Link: Free and Commercial Stock Photography Sites: Collection of stock photography sites http://bit.ly/RZu87 #
  • OH: "Oh, yeah: *that's* what the Nazis were all about! Free health care for all!" #

  • Photo: Winners don't do bamboo: eustatius posted a photo:

    This is how it starts. Tiny shoots. Next thing.. http://bit.ly/17kkhJ #

  • Sick of people wanting to give me a break from painting. If I had fewer breaks from painting I might have got some painting done by now. #
  • Getting boat fever in anticipation of tomorrow. #
  • Photo: It's too early: eustatius posted a photo:

    I mean, it's nice and everything, but it's too early. http://bit.ly/10bt64 #

  • Photo: Focaccia frenzy!: eustatius posted a photo: http://bit.ly/17mCPs #
  • Three-point turn in a narrowboat: bada-bing, bada-boom. #
  • Photo: The fourth PowerPuff Girl!: eustatius posted a photo: http://bit.ly/414QfM #
  • @stevejalim we'd have to throw Kate overboard to simulate a handbrake. Not really a birthday event. Could do bumps, badly? #
  • They don't tell you the worst hazard on river is know-it-all other boaters who advise you on the right path through channels. #
