Twitter

I’m trying out Twitter, partly based on the enthusiasm that Dave Winer is showing for it. I haven’t gotten under the hood yet, but even as purely a micro-blogging platform, I really like it. When I think of all the “lost” posts that I never wrote, due to laziness or being away from my laptop, I think Twitter could really end up filling a gap that I’ve had in my writing for a long time. The SMS and gChat interfaces for posting come as close to transferring thought to blog as possible.

At some point I may consider moving my Twits from the widget you see to the right into the actually flow of my blog (courtesy of Twitter’s API). That decision will come down the line.

Hello Austin!

I have no time to write anything of substance. I am in Austin, having just gotten back from a trip to Chile this past weekend. I am currently sleeping on an inflatable mattress, but have just spent about $3,000 at Home Depot on various large appliances that my condo did not come with.

I am also becoming a regular at places like Target, The Container Store and Best Buy. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know if we’ll have enough time.

I am currently learning that files saved in Office 2007 may not be able to be opened in Office 2003. Someone please kill me.
