- TWiT this week will focus on the Rev3 DDoS incident with @jlouderb, @patricknorton, @martinsargent and @jasoncalacanis. Live @ 3p PDT Sunday #
- @Hellstorm Good point. It must have been a DDoS or they would have just blocked the source, but they did say it all came from MediaDefender. #
- @rozsavage update: she’s rowing upwind and making slow progress. Updates at http://rozsavage.com/blog – working on her Twitter interface. #
- I’ll talk with @rozsavage live at 10a PDT (1700 GMT) at http://twitlive.tv – the podcast should begin this weekend so you can hear it all. #

- New Comcast modem is even faster – 30mbps down – but it’s still dropping out. Which, unfortunately, kills TWiT Live even tho it’s on the T1. #
- @ryanblock GnuPG but you’ll need to do some fiddling. This doc is handy – http://snipurl.com/2bidg – and get this http://snipurl.com/2bidp #
- @Agent_C What percent of malware infections are you able to remove without reformatting the drive? How often do those machines stay clean? #
- @docwho76 Each connection is discrete. The video stream goes to Stickam on a T1. Skype uses the DSL. General surfing is left to Comcast. #
- @danwil The Wire, Season 4. Only one season left. -snif- So far I like season 2 the best. @hotdogsladies likes 1 & 5. #
- @docwho76 I was using Comcast to manage the Stickam chat. If I leave the chat, the Stickam server closes. I’ve asked them to change that. #

- Martin and I kiss and make up. Then kiss some more. http://revision3.com/internetsuperstar/feud/ #
- @pazaq Save some money and get the Cann 50mm 1.4 – it’s fast enough. (But the 1.2 is lovely!) #
- @detorn I think I’ll stick with Disqus after all – I don’t want to whipsaw my blog readers. #
- @bhenry05 Dane is training a new editor (Tony) so MacBreak Weekly will be a little late, but it should be out any minute now. #
- I may not be able to retire Visual Hub after all. MKV file crashed the AppleTV. Sapphire is very cool though – imports metadata from IMDB. #
- The cool thing about the aTV hack is that I can now FTP files right into the Apple TV and use Sapphire to tag and categorize automatically. #

- Hey Bay Areans! @garyvee will be speaking at my friend Elaine’s book store tomorrow at 1p. A must see!! http://snipurl.com/2azbk #
- Boy that was easy. Just got the $60 aTV Flash from Apple Core. A couple of reboots and my Apple TV is fully hacked. http://snipurl.com/2aziq #
- Excellent and balanced article by Freeman Dyson on global warming. Will carbon-eating trees save us? http://is.gd/mPQ #
- @jeffjarvis Twitter’s problems keeping you up late Jeff? Me, too. #
- Pirates wear eye-patches not because they’re missing an eye, but to preserve their night vision. And on that note I bid you good night. #
- I’ll get you Martin Sargent. If it’s the last thing I do. http://revision3.com/internetsuperstar/feud/ #

- @newmediajim It’s extremely hard to charge for something that has been free. In my opinion, for-pay Twitter is a non-starter. #
- @ev, if it’s people like me, with large follower numbers, that are breaking Twitter, I will willingly withdraw. #
- @newmediajim It might work for Twitter to offer additional services for the money (ala Flickr). But charging for better uptime? won’t work. #
- And anyway I don’t think money is the issue. Twitter’s problems seem more structural than caused by bandwidth/server constraints. #
- @newmediajim I signed up for Twitter in December 2006 (yes, 2006) but closed my first account last year with a then huge 5,000 followers. #
- @newmediajim Aren’t Twitterers loyal to the community, not the platform? If the community gets fed up and leaves, it’s over, neh? #
- @1938media Does this mean I’m immunized from a Leo puppet? Wouldn’t be hard to parody me, I think. #

- I just can’t bring myself to throw out a 160GB drive, even though it’s not really good for anything. #
- @sdfx It came _out_ of a Drobo. I put 500GB drives in. Soon it will be 1TB drives! #
- 40 hot dogs, 2 tri-tips, ribs for 20, 40 tamales, 5 gal pina coladas, 5 gal lemonade, 1 small keg, 20 btls of wine. God bless America. #
- Oh, and 160 lbs of ice, a sno-cone machine, and one American flag. #

- Abby and her date are off to the senior prom. He was wearing a Zoot Suit. She was in a green gown with a silk scarf from @valeriekhoo. #
- @barrybrown I own both. The Mackie Onyx is more flexible because it has AUX channels (mix-minus for Skype). I use the MOTU for field record. #
- I’m heading to Sausalito to see @rozsavage off. She leaves at midnight to try to become the first woman to row solo across the Pacific. #
- Roz just rowed out under the Golden Gate Bridge at midnight. Next stop: Hawaii. Follow her @rozsavage. It’s truly inspiring. #
- @RozSavage is attempting a solo row of the Pacific. She will podcast and Twitter her progress via sat phone. We’ll talk Tuesday on TWiT. #
- @pjakobs Toughest is getting to sea. She got caught in the eddies around the GG Bridge. Took 8 attempts to get through but she made it! #
- @erazmus I have three interviews with her which I will podcast, then we’ll talk with her 3x a week via sat phone until she arrives. #
- @TechNTools I told you guys Jaiku was better! It’s Twitter + Brightkite + Friendfeed and running on Google servers. If only you’d listened! #
- @OceanDoctor Yes – Roz has a satellite phone which can send SMS messages mid-ocean. I think she’s got someone posting them as tweets, tho. #
- @pjakobs That’s why she left at midnight – to catch the ebb tide. But the currents eddying around the GG Bridge are very intense. #
- Woo hoo! Well done @MarsPhoenix! #

- Looks like Roz might leave Sunday between 3-7a from under the Golden Gate Bridge. She’s rowing solo across the Pacific. Follow @rozsavage #
- We’re doing a podcast with Roz as she rows across the Pacific. She’ll be calling in via sat phone twice a week. http://rozsavage.com #

- @WillBar Yes, but where’s the water coming from? Your cold glass is cooling the warm air around it and causing water to condense from air. #
- @thesupermikey I use the Qstarz BT-Q1000 GPS dongle. On the Mac use BT747 to import the data and HoudahGeo to geotag photos. I’ll do a demo #
- @vector_kyle Henry would rather skate than program. Daddy didn’t raise no geeks. I think I’ve created a few in other ways, though. #
- @ShaunMiddleton The Tricaster supports six video and three computer inputs. Wirecast is cool, but much more limited. I need more power! #
- @drandolph Thanks for helping @digitalkitty with the crimping. We’ve got gigbit everywhere now. Come up and see us when you return! #
- Internet pioneer Brewster Kahle is on TWiT Monday to talk how he went public and got the FBI to back off the Internet Archive. #
- @gheydon HoudahGeo geotags RAW and reads iPhoto, Aperture, and Lightroom catalogs. Geophoto is good, too and prettier. I use both. #
- @Scobleizer Gigabit’s in my office. We’ve also got a PS3 and Rock Band. Stop by and I’ll put you on camera. (That should seal the deal.) #
- @ScottJOnofrio Best way to find out what apps I use is to follow my Wakoopa feed: http://wakoopa.com/chieftwit – Windows and Mac apps #
- Off to do my weekly KFI blab (Netflix Player) then Auntie Dawn arrives to get her Windows machine disinfected. Microsoft owes me another day #
- Auntie Dawn’s PC was an easy fix. HP has a pretty decent recovery tool that preserves apps and data. #

- @chrispirillo Sorry to hear about your parents. We’ll be praying for them. Take care. #
- I apologize to those offended by my story about my wife’s publishing venture in this week’s MacBreak Weekly. Anyone need “doll” clothes? #
