- @WildPixels heh, funny! in reply to WildPixels #
- @WildPixels silly foursquare! #
- @arrington now you have pretty good momentum in the campaign to kill the handshake, how about taking up a jihad against the fax number? #
- Can anyone recommend a datacentre for a single dedicated server in Hong Kong? #
- @casperodj re: Sinohosing: no blackhole list problems? Nary a datacentre in the Mainland that isn't blackhole listed for crappy sysadminning in reply to casperodj #
- @marcelekkel @casperrodj suggested Sinohosting http://is.gd/8XR0f <- will check them out today in reply to marcelekkel #
- @casperodj Thanks Casper. We've sent them a RFQ for the European client. Appreciate the referral to Sinohosting HK dedicated servers. in reply to casperodj #
- I'm a lifelong "2 spaces after a full stop" typist. I was taught that style in grade 5 on IBM Selectrics. The habit drives our Studio nuts. #
- Stoked to be catching up with @maggierauch and @pdenlinger in Beijing tonight. #
- Our art director @lhiver wears slippers at work. I'm envious. I want comfy feet. #
- @marcelekkel I don't *feel* old! [Clacketty-clack on my IBM Selectrics - just changed the golfball to Courier italic] in reply to marcelekkel #
- @peterschloss Right. Except when your double-space copydeck hits Studio and InDesign barfs on the extra space. in reply to peterschloss #
- @peterschloss Typewriters are monospaced. Art studios use software that rarely utilises monospacing typography. Hard habit to break! in reply to peterschloss #
- @GE_Anderson Correct in monoset type, but design folks rarely use monoset type, so multi-spaces bork a document layout. @peterschloss @NiuB in reply to GE_Anderson #
- haha! RT @ednacz: @peterschloss @illuminantceo @GE_Anderson @NiuB 2 spaces after a period drives young'uns like me crazy. Damn typewriters. #
- OK. Housekeeping done for the morning. Switching off Twitter to get some copywriting done. Ta-ta all. #
- @rkoffler Was off Twitter for 9 hrs straight! Wrote a ton of superb copy (IISSM) on organic beef, sold a new proposal, got invited to 2 more in reply to rkoffler #
- @sagebrennan The Illuminant team is enjoying @manymoon Sage. User acceptance is excellent. We bought a Team subscription for $180. in reply to sagebrennan #
- @peterschloss Obama Lama come up yet? in reply to peterschloss #
- @Chassit Depends. Apache is FOSS and is the natural choice for httpd, and has been for, what, 20 years? in reply to Chassit #
- Heading out to meet @maggierauch #
- @Chassit ah-so. yeah, you're right. FOSS is rarely a great choice for retail users. Unless… WordPress, OpenOffice, etc. There are others. in reply to Chassit #
- @maggierauch, please meet my colleague @Chassit. Kane, please meet Maggie! #
- Look, I'm no republican, but I love Reagan's "Where we're going, we don't need roads." D'you think a Chinese Premier could utter such? #
- I'm having an awesome IM conversation with @Chassit. Kane's one of the sharpest thinkers and contemporary philosophers I've known in China. #
- @maggierauch is a kind, whipsmart American woman who has a great future ahead of her, and who shouldn't flatter old hacks like me. in reply to maggierauch #
- So, so jealous. RT @Mal_Asian: @leonacraig You make a pretty awesome playmate.
(wait, that just sounds wrong) # - @adalinelau its a hard feeling. i know. in reply to adalinelau #
- ack. out of DC. I want my flying car, and my portable fuel cell. #
- Yeah, she's really smart RT @betsydrager: @illuminantceo I met @maggierauch in November snowstorm here in #Nanjing-she is so tall + fun #
- @maggierauch, I'd love to introduce you to my great friend in NYC @MissXu. You guys definitely should meet in March. #
- Microsoft Word 2007 has become the biggest time-waster in my working days. #
- A bit cranky that I'm missing #Lost (am in Beijing today) #
- unbelievable: Microsoft's guide on how to remove a page break in a table in Word 2008 is a freakin' video! Fail, Microsoft, Fail. #
- @stinson Its just redonkulous. Stupid Word. I've been a user since v1.5 (Mac-only, back then). Their 2007 re-write broke everything. in reply to stinson #
- Had a very pleasant lunch with @esskayroy and bumped into @chinabuzz at Union. Good to see you guys! #

- @HeyTreeeee You, *jaded* Treeeee? No way! Greetings from Beijing btw
in reply to HeyTreeeee # - @keystolost Damn, I loved "Lighthouse". Great script, elegant direction. My 3 simple words: Hurley's The Man. Oh, and Jack's a Dick. #LOST in reply to keystolost #
- @Lost 605: Lighthouse. Loved the Island sequences, was dulled by the alt.world story. Hurley continues to emerge as the leader. Kate irrelev #
- #Lost writers must really hate Jack. They consistently make him into such a dick. Childish, impetuous vandal. Incongruous for a surgeon. #
- Out of DC. Blast! #
- I just became the mayor of Yoyo Hotel on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/cPafsH #

- I'm jealous. Sounded awesome. RT @rkoffler: At the Tech Coast Angels' Fast Pitch Competition @UCLA Anderson School of Management. #fb #
- Watching the Bloom Box item on 60 Minutes. Its a must-see. Amazing, revolutionary power source, it seems. http://ow.ly/1aZ3O #
- My awesome wife just Skyped me to show me my baby boy @kepler_dc eating, on his own, for the first time
) Applesauce! # - I've had a super-productive morning. Fully prepped for the Shanghai project. Have some free time on Saturday: any local tweeps around? #
- Is Bloom Energy or are any Bloom execs on Twitter? #
- Bloom named their boxes "Energy Servers". Brilliant market positioning. Kudos to their agency. #
- @DonaldJr I stand corrected, Sir! Hot Awards it is. #LOST #
- Leaving for BCIA. Hope the pilots can get planes off the ground with this 15 metre visibility smog… #

- Continental poster uses RTB "Still serving free meals at mealtime" instead of strapline. Yow. Soon, US airlines will introduce a seat fee. #
- Continental in Shanghai assured me my bag would be checked-through but I have a sinking feeling right now. #
- McDonalds billboard copywriting pretty lame: "It's all it's cracked up to be." (for McMuffins). "Good Morning!" would serve better. #
- Yup. Suitcase didn't make it. Looks like a few ppl missing luggage. One passenger is very angry. Yelling won't make it appear, friend! #
- Going on 3am where I am. Have a 6am start so should get some shut-eye. #
