• @tshellen that’s a crazy good book. read it for a class. Old man Tarwater get to ya? Or the crazy pimp driver? #
• Lady Sovereign is probably what Lily Allen’s little brother Alfie listens to when he takes Ritalin. #
• I think I’ve forgotten how to fall asleep. #
• Appreciating Doc Searls’ writing style for the first time. #
• @robknight, that’s surely a really good idea. but i’m already in bed. laptop in bed is some sort of cardinal sin, no? #
• @v uh-oh! @robknight, well I did, but now I’m up again. With a new website idea. #
• btw, @robknight, the chars look fine in Snitter #
• i can’t believe how hard it is to enable audio recording on a website. imagine all the sites not made b/c you need $1000s to do it in flash. #
• @csm, i liked your In Rainbows DiscBox review. #
• Paul Krugman blogs: http://tinyurl.com/3buelu #
• unsubscribing from Mashable in Google Reader. Wheat/Chaff ratio too low. #
• Replaced a fuse with copper wire to get my windshield wipers working. #

• So… what’s new? #
• yay! I can finally try out hahlo! Thanks @kimonostereo #
• watching last night’s Journeyman… I set my media mac up to my parents’ TV, and it downloaded the show automatically thru BT =D #
• Having iPhone headphones means having a telephone headset handy. #
• being paid to teach someone how to use Facebook #
• Helvetica? @robknight #
• Listening to Lady Sovereign. Such a cool sound. (UK Garage) #
• Lol, can’t handle it anymore. #

• 12 hours of sleep (catching up after finals week). Now, doing laundry, unpacking. #
• Trying to add the iusethis Facebook app. Seems I can’t associate the accounts because I used OpenID at iusethis. #
• Hmm, maybe the iusethis FB app is "under construction". I’m seeing a ‘welcome to Catalyst’ (http://catalyst.perl.org/) message #
• watching Bubble 2.0: The Video http://tinyurl.com/yupa8b #
• drinking caffeine, doing laundry #
• hey! I think the "is" is really gone! (on Facebook) #
• I can’t switch from Gmail to Apple Mail. I love Gmail too much. #
• But I am trying to get used to putting the Dock on the left side. This way, I can see it all the time and have a tidy screen (widescreen) #
• I wonder if Snoop flies NWA. (Northwest Airlines) #
• NWA = Northwest Airlines …and Ni**as wit Attitude #
• found my mom’s wallet after 1 minute. parents have been looking for it for hours. #
• at a construction company’s Christmas party. Not feeling at home. #
• I don’t see how people can stand PocketTweets. It’s flawed in so many ways. #
• @robknight Do It! (Make the Leap) #

• I really need to figure out why Leopard’s QuickLook is so cool. #
• Also, 1440×900 isn’t cutting it anymore for me. #
• Finally home for winter break… I have time to read feeds again! #
• Safari or Firefox? I can never decide so I use both all the time. #
• Google’s Knol project seems very similar to something I made last year: http://insidrs.com/ #
• tweaking the way Alex King’s WP TwitterTools does digest posts to my blog #
• I -think- I fixed TwitterTools, fixed it from posting the wrong date when I have late-night posts. ‘Night, it’s bedtime. #

• drinking coffee at a Chinese restaurant. #
• whoops! Dropped my girlfriend’s new phone. That Samsung Juke is so small. #
• Taking a cab up to a party on campus. The driver is watching a portable TV strapped to the dashboard while he drives. #
• Whew! Another late night. This one involving toxication. #

• omg I’m done with Finals. Now what? I don’t believe it. #
• wow, i really need a better way to keep track of replies. starting with rss bookmark in my safari bookmark bar. sorry if i didn’t reply b4! #
• I still haven’t figured out what to do with myself. I want to do some web dev, but can’t get started yet on the two projects I have in mind. #
• @robknight… do you have really thin floors / super hearing / or is he blasting John Mayer till it bumps? #
• sadly, here at UCSC, I would estimate that less than 5% of students have iPhones. Makes sense, (public school), but sad nonetheless. #
• I try to only use my trackpad for scrolling (the only thing pleasurable to do with it). And that’s probably the reason I love QS so much. #
• QS meaning QuickSilver. In other words: I like to keep my fingers on the keyboard. #
• And I’m pretty dedicated to the Mac keyboard. #
• I’ve been trying an iSkin keyboard cover (Black) for my MacBook Pro. I still can’t decide if I like it or not. #
• The (Black) keyboard cover just looks so good with my (Black) Speck clear case. But I don’t know if I like the feel. #
• I notice that sometimes I also like to have my left hand on the control keys and my right hand doing the navigation. #
• I guess you can’t do ev-er-y-thing with QuickSilver. #
• I guess I’m still on “cramming for finals” time. Sorta like jetlag. But from late night studying. #
• liked Hordes of Orcs? (new Mac game) think $25 is ridiculous? play the same (3D) game on the web! http://www.mrjoy.com/games/webplayer/6 #

I’ve been labeling things with a label maker. It looks so much cleaner than even the best written handwritten labels. And recently I’ve been using names like “notebook@rex.fm” in the above picture, which is also an email address. I named my schoolwork binder “binder@rex.fm”. So, if someone finds my binder or notebook, they can just email me and don’t even need to open it.

I never imagined I’d have such good, short URL.

I’ll have to write up my email/spam/privacy strategy soon… it’s related.

• I don’t like consuming media backwards… like Twitter.com for example, you read the most recent first… then you read older and older news #
• What a coincidence! I just downloaded Songbird out of the blue. And apparently there’s some event going on there right now. #
• @v, re: your earlier question about slang for “peace” … i’ve seen: “pz” but only used as “goodbye” not for “pax” #
• @v, yes, i think so, but, it doesn’t flow so nicely… = #
• lifehack of the day: subscribe to your Facebook Events feed in Google Calendar (or iCal if you prefer) #
• listening to http://hypem.com/search/instrumental/1/ (instrumental tracks posted to mp3 blogs = study music) #
• @MarinaMartin, I think the effectiveness of an umbrella is a direct inverse correlation to windiness. Like, No Wind = No Wetness #
• scratch that… listening to http://tinyurl.com/28p226 (Instrumental Remixes) #
• listening to bootlegs of DJ Tïesto’s weekly radio show / live mixes, “Club Life” #
• …as I study for my final final. I have to pass this class, or I’m not allowed to be an Econ Major. Oh, The Pressure! #
• @t0fu Great Movie! #
• “Surrender to the Sound, Surrender to the DJ” #
• I want an iTunes visualizer that is a bunch of (Nintendo Wii) Mii’s dancing to the music. #

• It feels good to study a lot for a final exam. It also feels good to finish one. #
• couldn’t fall asleep. back at the desk. #
• Please Google, add the ability to merge contacts in Gmail. I -need- it. #
