- Hey! My followers count is correct and I can follow people again. Twitter is fixed – knock on astroturf. #
- TWOTD: philately, as in, "@hotdogsladies lifelong love of philately began with the discovery of a rare set of 1980s nightclub hand stamps." #
- The next February with five Fridays won’t be until 2036, which is, coincidentally, when Duke Nuke ‘Em Forever is expected to ship. #

- Hey! You can hear me! Cool. When I text "stats" to 40404 I get 7,098 back. So it’s not that I have xFFFF followers, it’s a goofy Twitter. #
- @corsairstw No MacBreak Weekly this week – we ran into scheduling issues, alas. But we’ll have lots to talk about next week! #
- Ze Frank live from TED joins @ambermac and me tonight on net@night. #
- Apparently @ev is spitting while Twitter burns. #
- Wondering if I can get Qik.com working in Tasmania. I’ll bring my Nokia N95 GSM phone, but can I buy a SIM card and is there EVDO in Hobart? #
- Someone needs to pour a bucket of water on @loiclemeur and @techcrunch. #
- @Nitrozac "It’s all good" is the one that bugs me. It’s even passive agressive than "whatever." #
- @themacmommy I’m tweeting but you ain’t hearing me. #
- Although there are certain advantages to being able to tweet without anyone noticing. Like…. um…. well, you know. #
- @cdevroe http://hellotxt.com – cross post to Twitter, Pownce, Jaiku, Facebook and more – m.hellotxt.com is great for iPhone, too. #
- @JeffCampbell When the White House uses tech against its citizens it’s a story. I can’t understand why "conservatives" aren’t incensed, too. #
- @davewiner I was invited to FOO camp once. When I asked if I could bring an audio recorder I was told no, and never asked again. #
- @danbenjamin Tom Bihn bags FTW – they can double as messenger and shoulder style and are superbly made. http://tombihn.com #
- @loudmouthman reason #4: because AIR makes Scoble cry real tears. #

Today the Leoville.com blog turns seven.
Over the years it’s been running on Blogger, GreyMatter, Movable Type, Expression Engine, Vox, and now, I’m very happy to say, Wordpress. It’s been so much fun, and when I look back at the old posts I realize what a long, strange decade it’s been!
There will be no cake. The cake is a lie.

- We’re running so late I’m going to miss the debate. I might even have to blow off MacBreak Weekly. drat. #
- @Miss604 tweeted that she was in the green room. I had no idea! Went back to meet her. Twitter. Bringing people together since 2007. #
- Twitter is telling me to "talk to the hand." I give up. Let me know when you’re ready to listen to me again. -snif- #
- If FriendFeed had a cool flash badge with my feed I’d probably replace Jaiku with it on the Leoville.com home page. Hint, hint. #
- Twitter is deeply and profoundly broken – I haven’t been able to add followers for two days and no one hears me – but I can’t stop. Telling. #
- @om Way to go! #

- "If you’re not in a hurry to travel to Vancouver we’d like to offer you a ticket to leave tomorrow morning at 7." #
- I used my Clear pass to go through airport security. All they did is assign me a "concierge" who bulldozed her way to the front of the line. #
- It seems kind of undemocratic. But very capitalistic. Are these compatible feelings? #
- Which Xbox360 Wi-Fi adapter do you guys recommend? I need it to do WPA. #
- Hoo boy. Things are going a little slowly on the Lab set today. We just finished our first show. At this rate lunch will be at 4pm. #
- @starsolutions We record MBW on Monday on Lab tape weeks (like this one) I called it off yesterday to wait for Apple. We’ll record tonight. #
- Twitter appears to be hopelessly broken. I have "65,535" followers none of whom can hear me. Another case where less is more. Name change! #
- @mollywood And you are WONDERFUL! Peeps! I think you should just finish @140novel yourself. It’s your turn @acedetect. #
- iPhone 1.1.4 just shipped. Now I’m really glad we didn’t record MacBreak Weekly yesterday. #

- Lifted 19,400 pounds in half an hour of squats and presses. Then 5K on the rowing machine. I earned a massage today. Off to Vancouver tonite #
- I just went all-in for Obama. #
