Trent and Tiffany's Wedding

We were a little late to the ceremony but what i saw of it was nice.

Here are the videos I took (sorry the sound sucks) the first three were uploaded to youtube before the reception moved past that awkward first stage wifi at reception, video taken on my palm centro and moved to my nokia n800 via bluetooth and uploaded from there. The last one I uploaded as soon as I got home.

Why Twitter is the winner

There are soooooo many Twitter clones and Twitter-esque apps/websites out there, but they all seem too fall short and I know why. Simplicity. I'd really like to pick on FriendFeed and Jaiku. Yes, they are "better" technologies. But have you tried to use them on a mobile? Well in FriendFeed's case, nope not possible (as far as I know), and Jaiku's case most of us haven't you must have a Nokia phone to do so. Welp my Palm Centro puts me out on that.

Here is my real issue... how in the hell are you supposed to use a threaded system through SMS? Oh yeah you can't!

Why is SMS soo important? How much time do you spend on the computer? How much of the day is your mobile in you pocket? For me the mobile wins EVERY DAY.

oh and one more thing Twitter is EASY!!! @username makes a whole lot of sense... this message is "AT" that username.

Projects are taking a backseat for a bit

My dear friend Ryan has gone MIA. I think he may just be hiding, or something may be wrong. I don’t know. He doesn’t answer his phone, and hasn’t responded on facebook, twitter, or pownce. I think its because I’ve been pushing to hard to try and get txtbasket up and running. So next week I think I’ll go back to working almost full time at my other job and make some extra cash and possibly put up a $100 bounty for someone to create a “complete n00bz guide to setting up stet”, licensing it CC BY-SA, and posting it to the wiki (txtbasket.info). when I come up with the cash that will be the bounty so anyone out there who wants to get a head start can.

chrisrmas comes early when the giver is stoked

To get it out of the way my parents got me a nokia n770 for christmas. They have been sitting on ths info for a month. Well my nerdy younger brother was playing with it and couldn'tsit on the info anymore. So he made up this bullshite (and not believed) story about how Iwas going to be in Venezuala durring christmas. So my mom gave in and so here I am blogging from my n770. The only thing that is pissing me off right now is the update button on twitter.com is not wotking, so I avent yet tweeted from it. Altough I have been using pidgin and someother cool stuff. OH! xkcd is awesome on this.

Twitter on Facebook

Hey guess what, this is not as hard as I thought this was. It's two smegging setps.

1. Add twitter app on facebook

2. after you "Allow Twitter extended access to your Facebook account" You'll notice a link that says: Want Twitter to update your Facebook status? Click here! Do it, and that's it.\

I got this info from twistimage.com

Hot Damn gTwitter made it into universe!

I love gTwitter, there is no question about that, none. But you used to have to either compile it from source or go to getdeb.net to find a package for it. That was the past and this is the future!! I love when someone actually goes and packages my favorite apps.
