Farewell Video
Last night was my absolutely amazing farewell party at the Bernard’s house. The gang put together this awesome going away video for me. It’s just great. Thank you so much everyone. Who would have ever thought reading Twitters could be so funny! There is an amazing, completely unexpected and inexplicable cameo at the end. But [...]
FriendFeed Duplication via Mashing
I’ve been working with financial news for years now and there is a really common problem in financial news, deduplication. The issue is when several news outlets will cover the same story or even redistribute another sources story, creating duplicates that readers find annoying. As the web becomes more mashable, I saw the first sign [...]
More FriendFeed Fun
I wrote earlier about FriendFeed and I’m continuing to really enjoy it. I’ve played in the past with aggregation and this is by far the best solution for “life streaming” out there yet. Here is the perfect example of why FriendFeed is cool.
The Twitter and Flickr actions tied together; open and mashable in a “Web [...]
Hello Again, Twitter
Last November I decided to pull the plug and wish Twitter “buh-bye”. Those that follow me have realized that I’ve returned to Twitter. So, what gives?
I’ve settled on a few simple things to make Twitter work for me.
Don’t Stand in the River, Take What You Want
I’ve stopped using Twitter over SMS and don’t expect [...]
Buh-Bye Twitter

My iPhone is noticing that the volume of SMS messages has dropped way down. Most importantly my brain is feeling less distracted.I’ve been a big fan of Twitter [...]
2007 Winnipeg Folk Fest via Twitter
This was the first Winnipeg Folk Festival since I started using Twitter. I sort of “micro-blogged” using Twitter while I was there. Here it is. I realized afterwards that SMS messages internationally aren’t included in my plan. Oops!

My Robot and Steven Wright
A friend of mine forwarded this screen capture from a friend of his who grabbed this great Twitter moment. It seems my robot and Steven Wright (also on Twitter) are on similar wavelengths.
Stranded in New York
Tonight, for only the second time in the 10 years or so that I’ve traveled for business, I got stranded. I was to depart New York tonight on a 6:00pm flight out of LaGuardia. I heard that storms were coming, and I was worried because my experience is that LaGuardia is a horrible airport when [...]
Mr. Mom Weekend via Twitter
I’ve been a bit enamored with Twitter for a bit now. Mr. Mom Weekend was a great time to do some “tweeting”. For posterity sake, here is the Twitter stream from the Mr. Mom Weekend.

Introducing my Robot
A couple of months ago I heard about Twitter for the first time. I logged onto it, created an account, and pretty much instantly decided that it served no purpose. Honestly, I just didn’t get it at all. A friend of mine, mostly on a lark, decided that he was not going to let Twitter [...]
