The Twitter Diaries: 2009-08-09: CO
^ This would be overdone even in Switzerland – but it’s in Vail.
- slept til 9 am – that is so unlike me! #
- ah, now this is more like summer. I’d better go for a walk before temp hits the 90s today. #
- @nonstick LOL! Sometimes the only answer is “Because that would have messed up the story the author wanted to tell.” in reply to nonstick #
- Ross tells me that Indian culture is penetrating Italy: Jai Ho! is popular at dance clubs #
- @bklein34 TEDIndia would be my ideal occasion! Hmm. Chris Anderson, distinguished Woodstock alum, hmm… <plotting> in reply to bklein34 #
- RT @KathySierra: How do cos justify $$$ on marketing/ads while product/svc on life-support? Isn’t great prod/svc/support the BEST marketing? #
- putting together a wine cork board is tricker than it looks. #
- just to add to my communications overload, I’m back on IRC for the first time in years. Gotta be where (more of) my peeps are! #
- I have yet to reach the point where exercise feels good, but at least it feels better than no exercise. A walk in the Colorado twilight. #
- damn, this Strengths Finder assessment is better than a horoscope #
- argh. it’s midnight and tomorrow is Monday. Must. Stop. Now. #
- RT @guardiantech: Can the web save Italy’s artisanal food producers? http://bit.ly/1SduaG #
- @nonstick my major non-strength is ironing. Tho not too crazy about housecleaning, either. in reply to nonstick #
- nothing like starting my day feeling stupid thanks to technology #
- from the not-so-evil empire: Sara Ford’s Weblog : OSCON 2009: One of the greatest weeks in my Microsoft Career http://bit.ly/182bWU #
- this performance map business is hard. Can’t we just say I do stuff superbly and leave it at that? #
- item on FakeSteveJobs reminded me that somone had recently told me about this very funny video: http://bit.ly/1dLtW0 #
- ooookkkkayyy… that is not the result I was expecting for that particular search. Apparently Google is omniscient. #
- when a community (even of friends) is based around one personality, and that personality goes rogue, the whole community hurts #
- @zephoria I hope that doesn’t translate into automatically assuming that older=rigid, in adaptable, etc. That’s not always the case in reply to zephoria #
- @Roam2Rome enjoy your paleness now – 20 years from now people will be complimenting you on your youthful complexion. in reply to Roam2Rome #
- @gpelz I’ve seen them fail twice at crucial moments, and been told that htey are not at all discriminating in the sound they pick up. in reply to gpelz #
- @trine crazy. Life’s too short for conservative hair. in reply to trine #
- …and I’m still looking for a sufficiently non-conservative hairdresser in Boulder/Denver area… #
- @Kimbirly can”t DM if you’re not following me in reply to Kimbirly #
- UStream doesn’t save chat streams for you. FAIL #
- @lbridenne76 it’s really bad when you don’t know about that limitation in advance… #Ustream in reply to lbridenne76 #
- @Roam2Rome worked for me: rarely tanned (just not capable), never smoked, drink lots of water. in reply to Roam2Rome #
- two nights of inadequate sleep are catching up. But overall mood is… happy, actually. #
- whoever invented various & noisy forms of motorized transport for the underage set should be shot. Forthwith. #
- @DavidStrauss having trouble finding one as creative as the one I like in Austin. I came out looking like Hilary Clinton last time. in reply to DavidStrauss #
- (nothing against Hilary, but her hairstyle is not for me) #
- @msgilligan Anyone who thinks Hilary is a little old lady has another think coming. in reply to msgilligan #
- Wow, slept the night through, which almost never happens naturally. Something new in my environment appears to be good for me. #
- @briansolis your reference to “Deirdre and I” threw me there for a minute. I’m pretty sure the book I wrote wasn’t with you. ; ) in reply to briansolis #
- @ThinGuy seems reasonable to me. Haven’t you ever wondered what the inside of a washing machine would feel like? in reply to ThinGuy #
- like mother, like daughter: Ross is thinking seriously about going to Australia next (northern) winter, to work with horses. #
- listening to a preso on career transition #
- relieved to hear that the old “send your resume around” is out of style – it never worked for me #
- what on this MacBook is snorting at me? #
- oh, damn, the elevator pitch. My career/job doesn’t condense that well #
- Req for feedback: I made up “social media producer” as part of my title. Is that instantly understandable? #
- @bklein34 wrote: @DeirdreS It does: I tell stories with video. I tell them in a human way that makes tech come alive to broad audiences. And I innovate.
- @bklein34 wow, thanks, I love that! Can I quote you? ; ) in reply to bklein34 #
- @bklein34 wrote: @DeirdreS Of course! I think what you do is so amazing!
- “keep your online presence professional”. Okay, as long as you don’t consider the Italian slang dictionary unprofessional… #
- @c_bright “content” clarifies but also restricts. I’m both producing the content and managing/strategizing the whole, um, performance in reply to c_bright #
- @bklein34 thanks! I do love it, so am working on getting to keep on doing it. in reply to bklein34 #
- despite major life complications, feeling optimistic, even giddy. #
- @c_bright Done right, social media can require quite a lot of production! What I’m Doing in Brisbane http://bit.ly/DdzAt #
- @ethang don’t think I have a photo unless you’re in here somewhere, may have video – editing that soon http://bit.ly/19izB3 #
- @ethang sorry, I only seem to have vid of you from the neck down… Vid of me would be great – it’s rare! in reply to ethang #
- finally working on drafts of the FISL interviews (all in Br. Portugese) #
- FT.com / Europe – “…the “system†in Italy, where businessmen pay women to entertain politicians.” http://bit.ly/FCytt #
- guaranteed to raise a smile: http://bit.ly/1fg4zd – the music is Dhoom Tana from “Om Shanti Om” #
- blog post: Reflections on My Career http://bit.ly/U8jWP #
- @mjabali Thanks. If you find the model helpful, let me see what you do with it – I’d be curious to compare others. in reply to mjabali #
- I would almost have to let this spammer slip by for being smart. #
- weird. OGB meeting call kept getting “hello? hello?” interruptions in Spanish or Portugese. Who did they think they were calling? #
- short on sleep again. It’s Thursday. #
- trying to figure out how to get last.fm to actually play the song I want. The stuff they’re suggesting is good, but why be a tease about it? #
- it’s Friday and things are a little weird. But I’m on vacation. That’s plus. #
- it is so unlike me to lose things when I travel, but it’s been happening a lot lately. Damn. Gonna miss those Steve Madden gel flats. #
- @jtroyer re UStream this might help, and there are a couple of other notes about UStream on my blog – Un Posto al Sole http://bit.ly/3W3VL #
- @jeffreytaylor Can I just marry you? Oh, wait, I think you’re already taken. in reply to jeffreytaylor #
- hitting the road that points west. Dillon CO tonight, after that no precise plans. Except to be largely offline. Ciao, tweeps! #
- Picnic lunch before a hike on Dillon lake #
- 2 hr hike, HP6 (E hadn’t seen it), now dinner, soon sleep. Because that’s enough activity for a vac day! #
- Damn. All the neighbors in Dillon sure are stingy with their wifi #
- Vaca reading choices: the Penguin historyof the US, or The Virgin’s Lover (another Philippa Gregory Tudor potboiler). Hmm. #
- Ross also saw HP6 this aft, says it was awesome in 3D Imax. I admit I spent most of my 2nd viewing thinking about other things. #
- Both slept badly, maybe due to altitude and dryness. At least with jetlag E wakes up as early as I do so we’ll hit the road soon. #
- Vail looks enough like Cortina that I don’t need to see any more. Not that I’ve spent a lot of time in Cortina. #
- At 12095 ft Independence pass was too high for me – dizzy! #
- Now in Aspen, another place for people with more money than sense, apparently. Must get a photo of Snark St – too appropriate for my mood. #
- @familyonbikes I wasn’t on a bike, fortunately. Doubt I’ll ever be on that kind if shape in reply to familyonbikes #
- “you’re holding up better than any other 46 year old I know” is not the romantic compliment I was looking for. #
