Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-05-13

  • One of my boys once said, "Camping is another word for ouch."

    He may be right, I'm sore today. #

  • Hello naked iPhone. You are sexy. Please don't break before I get you a new case. #
  • I don't think I've picked up my Kindle once since getting the new iPad. #
  • Listening to "License to Ill". Lots of memories in this record. It came out my senior year of high school… #
  • …and topped the charts my freshman year at NYU, which I spent in the same dorm Rick Rubin launched Def Jam out of years earlier. #
  • NSConf videos downloading. Any special recommendations from attendees? #
  • This shouldn't take 2 hours, huh? http://t.co/sRBJv6sl #
  • DFW people, considering moving to Verizon iPhone. Is the service better around here? Data service generally good? #
  • Reject and resubmit. I need to slow down a little. My QC is suffering. #
  • I just got a spam robot call with a recorded message from someone telling me God sent them a message to personally reach out to me. #
  • Impressed with ImageOptim's results. Depressed about the implications for standard design tools export functions. http://t.co/kFQLfgGL #
  • Now if @BarackObama would just endorse App store upgrade pricing. #
  • Sierra Nevada in a can isn't bad, but it's no Dale's Pale Ale. #
  • There's one little and one big thing I like in the new @instapaper update. http://t.co/EeDfrjFT #
  • I wake up too early. #
  • So, I'm pretty sure I just updated Safari without rebooting. Finally. #
  • The first couple of mosquito bites of the year are always the worst. #
  • Fitbit ordered. Wondering if it will count me bouncing in on my exercise chair as steps. #
  • "Does this have iCloud support or not? If it doesn't, what's the point of it for the 99% of us that use iCloud instead of Dropbox?" HAHAHAHA #
  • Hey @rdio, there's a thing called "Paragraphs", you should look into them – they are wonderful for readability. http://t.co/6V6CNg4K #
  • Hands down, my favorite review screenshot to date. http://t.co/XgXNObQR #
  • I sooooo love working with XML. #
  • Oh, @evernote. I fought your API today, the form to req a key be put into prod is broken is icing – on a poop cake. It's beer:30. #
  • Beta testing and watching a Scooby Doo movie with the little guy. Does that qualify as multitasking? #
  • Avengers. Finally. #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-05-06

  • Walking through the cosmetics section of Dillard's on a Saturday made me understand what it feels like to be armies in a tower defense game. #
  • I wish my brain supported grand central dispatch. #
  • Wookiee living up to his name. http://t.co/GpdgyOU3 #
  • If we put up enough solar panels would it put a dent in global warming? They are storing energy that would otherwise produce heat, right? #
  • If you need design work done, @amahnke was a pleasure to work with, and I'm very pleased with the new @draftsapp icon! #
  • I expected to get requests for a Facebook action in Drafts. I have not. Which is nice, because I'm not excited about looking at their SDK. #
  • Drafts is in the top 20 in Productivity on the strength of yesterday's 1.1 update. Thanks for all the support! #
  • Research suggests Good Morning America is a documentary about the futility of celebrity marriages and what's hot on YouTube. #
  • I've had reports of the download of the Drafts 1.1 update not installing the new icon. Could it be my build? Just download weirdness? #
  • Glad I've never relied on my @me/mac.com address for anything. #
  • Knocking off early to head out camping in a few hours. Can't concentrate! #
  • Fireflies rock. #
  • Exploring. http://t.co/kHnIQFvY #
  • Barely any signal where we're camping. I'm good with that. #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-04-29

  • Anyone seen The Three Stooges yet? OK for the kids? Seems pretty true to the originals, which they know. #
  • Dear Bagger, just because the responsible, reusable grocery bags hold 100 lbs, doesn't mean you need to put that much in it. kthxbye. #
  • Father-in-law is in the hospital. The US medical system can do amazing things, but is so frustrating sometimes. #
  • Yes, yes, Apple not going out of business. I get it. #
  • A last minute change for 1.1 really makes Drafts feel snappier – mainly when tweeting. Cant wait for it to hit the store. #
  • "I don't want skin. I want an exoskeleton." – the 4yr old.

    He may be onto something. #

  • I hope to do WWDC again some day, but not this year. #
  • To inject some sad indie reality, it would cost considerably more than the gross proceeds of Drafts sales to attend WWDC for the week. #
  • Only one Elvis movie on Netflix. Why do I pay for this crap? #
  • DFW folks: any recommendations for a local shop to replace shattered glass on an iPod Touch? #
  • One thing I hate about the new Basecamp? It suckers me into thinking writing a long post in Safari is a good idea. I should know better. #
  • Currently rockin' the Jack White, thanks to @amahnke: http://t.co/dSrS2Rwy #
  • UI of the week: ANY SPRINKLER SYSTEM CONTROLLER! It's amazing anyone in an arid region has a lawn. http://t.co/KPgSomwI #
  • Jack White playlist from @amahnke inspired me to start a "Black&White" list that alternates between Jack and the Black Keys. #
  • Related: Jack White and The Black Keys should collaborate on a cover of "Ebony & Ivory" #
  • I think it time to restore the iPhone to factory settings and reinstall only what I use. #
  • Interruptions like these are what makes it hard to work at home. ;-) http://t.co/F0AHY4Dq #
  • Any good examples of apps that elegantly handle the migration of data to and from iCloud when enabling/disabling it? #
  • It's really kind of addictive to play with a well implemented iCloud app simultaneously on two devices and watch the changes propagate. #
  • This is going to be a great weekend. #

  • Make up your mind, 1/2 or all? Clearly not all, sadly. http://t.co/fGylsa86 #
  • My new iPad screwed up my Mac. My display has looked like crap ever since it arrived. #

  • When scanning VRBO for cabins, the occurrences of "Get Naked" and "Stripper pole" in the description are higher in TN than CO. #

  • WWDC announcement: Olympic Selection Committee tapped to manage bid process for future locations. Keynote to be renamed "Opening Ceremony". #
  • Dupe this radar if you care about Accessibility on iOS. http://t.co/FZNMKyz6 #

    You're welcome. #

  • I estimate that in the year 2020, I will figure out how many pieces of popcorn I can pickup w/o dropping any in my lap. #
  • I think I had accumulated enough change in my Jeep's console to effect my mileage. #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-04-15

  • If you've ever spent time in IT, you're sure to enjoy the stories in "Bartending: Memoirs of an Apple Genius". http://t.co/TpKFZCU0 #
  • Dear Facebook, I could be talked into selling an app or two. Mine even make a few bucks now and then, so they should be worth $3B or so. #
  • Drafts broke into the Top 10 in Social Networking – with an ugly icon and no App store features. Pretty awesome, thanks for the support! #
  • Maybe I'll just implement iEverSimpleDropNoteBoxCloud support. 😳 #
  • Tell me what you really think. No really, don't hold back. http://t.co/RcqUP5DC #
  • I keep wanting to like Paper, but the lack of multitouch drawing tools is really broken for me. #
  • LTE iPad creates the same speaker crackle interference as my Edge network iPhone 1 did. #
  • The new M. Ward sounds great, but it's bummin' me out. Need something perkier. #
  • Feels like Thursday. #
  • The Twitter search for "drafts" is a bit different for a couple of hours around happy hour. #
  • Boy #3 and his LEGO creeper. http://t.co/Xul2PjND #
  • "Send to Dropbox" is kinda handy, not sure why I didn't get this in 1.0. #
  • Drafts tweet got RT'd by AppStore. People at the restaurant might have been getting sick of hearing my Tweetbot sound. I was not. #
  • Bummer. Gotta admit I had hopes Drafts would land somewhere on the home page in the App store refresh. N&N in Education at least. #
  • Long day on the road. Almost to Corpus Christi. #
  • Party! http://t.co/4xKjUQGp #
  • That @mattgemmell seems like a smart chap. And I am not just saying that because he likes Drafts. http://t.co/uZLiLAeJ #

  • [Blog] Drafts session timeout: How long is too long?

    http://t.co/QvbzTqoL #

    Am I right? #

  • And, we have a tornado warning. #
  • IE marketshare for browsers visiting http://t.co/S1UlZPp7? 0.92% #
  • My calendar-awareness is low. Who launches an app the day after Easter? 😳 #
  • Four year old's response to commercial for touring production of "Le Cage Aux Folles" featuring George Hamilton?

    "That guy is creepy." #

  • Improved the audio on the Drafts preview video. Still not great though. Ordered a Blue Yeti mic for future needs. http://t.co/8vBykmSp #
  • I didn't catch it in the video, do those Google glasses things tell me how much ammo I have left? #
  • Don't anger me, or I might podcast. http://t.co/dVW6W5BE #
  • Swipe up should collapse a Springboard folder. #
  • When I wake up and check Twitter it takes me a minute to realize you all aren't chipper morning people – some of you are just in Europe. #
  • Please phrase your EULA confirmations "I agree…" not "I have read and agree…"

    I don't like being forced to lie. #

  • I'm sitting in a camp chair shooting BBs and drinking beer.

    I believe my transformation into a Texan is nearing completion. #

  • Cool? There was a large educational discount purchase of Phraseology the other day. Uncool? I have no way of knowing who made that purchase. #
  • Wow, people. Top 100 Social Networking in less than an hour. Thanks so much for checking out Drafts! #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-04-02

  • We should take time to thank Apple for heightening awareness of the issue of nasty, oily fingertips. #
  • I predict a slow pace this Monday morning. And soul music. Possibly Sam Cooke. #
  • Refreshed the website a bit today. Let me know if you catch any problems. http://t.co/S1UlZPp7 #
  • Does editing meta data (descriptions, screenshots, etc.) of a "Waiting for Review" app effect your place in the review queue? #
  • A "drafts app" twitter search taught me the Twitter app has problems with drafts data loss. Perhaps this bodes well for @draftsapp. #

  • Doxie Go acquired.

    Now, if all this crap would just scan itself. #

  • Translating @mattgemmell : he hates it when you pretend there's no gray areas. https://t.co/GWmUmja8 in reply to mattgemmell #
  • I'm drawing cool sh*t in Paper, but the "send" button in it's tweet sheet is disabled – so you can't see it. #
  • Ok, Doxie Go acquired, what apps to you use to manage and tag scanned docs/receipts/etc.? #
  • Editor devs interested in the Terminology integration in Phraseology & Writingkit should get in touch. http://t.co/i9hyQpMs // @ttscoff in reply to ttscoff #
  • I don't know a store other than Apple's that could have me in and out on the exchange of a $729 online purchase in 5 minutes. Awesome. #
  • It take a long time to restore 140 apps to an iPad. #
  • Dear Apple, "there are approximately 11,247 apps ahead of you in the review queue" couldn't be too hard to implement. #
  • How could you know you want to feature my app in your presentation if you don't own it, Mr. Promo Code Whore? #
  • Did not win lottery.

    This puts a damper on my plan to finish out my life driving around in an amphibious car dressed like Aquaman. #

  • Remember your first iOS device, when you pinched and zoomed gratuitously? Now I do this for fun. http://t.co/fN59stG6 #

  • Hey, cool. I work at home, and somebody made me a podcast! http://t.co/Rb9Lt4rL //cc @imyke @amahnke @davidcaolo #
  • Sweating the details is harder when the dog is barking at the guy mowing the lawn. #
  • That thing where I bitch about the wait time at the doctor. #
  • I have no idea if anyone else is going like this app, but I do. More details coming soon. #
  • Doxie, Doxie Go or other? Why? #

  • LEGO magazine building challenges are judged by "creativity (50%) and originality (50%)".

    That seems a bit redundant to me. #

  • Boy was quite inspired this morning. He calls it "Ty-rantula Rex" http://t.co/ngBXf0L7 #
  • Shawn Blanc is a great presence in the Apple community, help him keep up the good work: http://t.co/KxMtyw0m #
  • I thought this app was going to be simple and I'd knock it out in a couple weeks. It just never works out that way. #
  • Trying to avoid the "are you sure?" syndrome without risking accidental data loss can be challenging. #
  • Hey @wfaa, You credited Michaelangelo for painting the Mona Lisa on air this morning. Seriously? #
  • "He put the smile on the Mona Lisa, it's Michaelangelo's birthday!" (w/photo Mona Lisa photo graphic.)

    Local news makes me cry. #

  • Budgeting how much I can afford to spend tomorrow, so that I can completely ignore my own wisdom and buy whatever they announce. #
  • Is it just me who periodically hits CMD-S expecting it to submit a web form? #
  • iPad Insight posted a "What's on your iPad?" interview featuring yours truly today – check it out!

    http://t.co/baCYcd8B #

  • Apple event surprise announcement of @gruber for iPad 3. Deployed Tuesday this app posts 3x as many links to DF in a day than before. #
  • It would have been neat if Readability morphed into something like ASCAP or BMI. It can't and won't, but it would have been neat. #
  • If there's one thing we can learn from Super Tuesday results, it's that there's at least 11,349 people in North Dakota.
    http://t.co/E4QU9hdd #
  • A stylus. That vibrates.

    Thank me later. #iPad3 #

  • How many live blog tabs is too many? #

  • Can I just give you my money already? #

    Not. #

  • NSCoderNight (at Fuzzy's Taco Shop) — http://t.co/kHwCyU3o #

    [ ] G [ ] PG [ ] PG-13 [ ] R

    [ ] TV [ ] Movies #

  • It only took about an hour watching his big brothers for the 4 year old to master desktop Minecraft. He loves TNT. A lot. #
  • If you use it for nothing else, AirPlay justifies the $99 you'll spend on an AppleTV. #
  • UIDocument seems to have a different definition of "automatically" than I do. As in "automatically saves changes." #
  • My 10 yr olds are smart, but I have yet to be able to convince them of the value of a bookmark over page memorization and manual scanning. #
  • WARNING! Sensory perception and awareness of your surroundings may be required (at least until we're out of beta) http://t.co/BNxKGCBR #
  • Unrealized gain on my $AAPL holdings is currently about 2x greater than what I have spent on Apple products in the last 5 years. #
  • (And, no, I'd rather not talk about my $HPQ holdings) #
  • I love the way Fairway Solitaire enhances the solitaire experience. It's my favorite new iPad game in a while. http://t.co/qfcyOzle #
  • Researching planned integration and you see: http://t.co/2jyyQ65v. Do you?

    (a) Admire their docs.
    (b) Close browser window in terror! #

  • I'm sure Houston has its virtues, but aesthetic appeal isn't one of them. #
  • The fact that I use real English language words for my app names makes watching for mentions on Twitter an interesting undertaking. #
  • "Covers" on FB pages at least give me something else to do with that art I prepared for Apple. :-) https://t.co/tBNpHBMp #
  • The convenient nightstand plug provided by this hotel would have been more useful if it worked when the lamp was off. #iphonenotcharged #
  • The Readability fonts are beautiful. I'm not so sure I like them for reading long texts, however. Whitney's kerning feels wrong. #
  • Vitesse is totally wrong. Who would read text in that font? #
  • Anyone know how to escalate a bogus app rejection that has dragged on for a month? I don't want to drag the details out in public. #
  • I'm so confused. #
  • I should email @pschiller more often.

    Or not. He'd probably started getting annoyed with me. #

  • UIWebView should offer setting to respect parental controls. Please dupe. http://t.co/n4si6FnJ #
  • [Blog] In-app browsers and the 17+ rating. http://t.co/4OwBoDV2 #

  • Looks great! RT @kenyarmosh Buzz Contacts launches this Wednesday, trailer today – http://t.co/XWYXRRGk #
  • Liquified spinach glows blood red under the black light.

    One of many interesting things I've learned from my wife. #

  • Anyone have a feel for how long to expect it to take for an App store rejection appeal to be addressed? #
  • Consensus on the appeal timing? Anywhere from immediately to never. 😱 #
  • I wonder if there are any longitudinal studies correlating the rudeness of preteens with Disney Channel market penetration. #
  • Educators are not always the clearest communicators. But I love the phrase "Raw Knowledge Continuum" http://t.co/3vgtiBNY #
  • Came across some old recordings from back when I practiced playing guitar. I little rough, but not bad. http://t.co/sOKBU6MK #
  • This app I'm working on is not going to be for everyone, but I kinda think I'm on to something interesting. Scratches my itch, at least. #
  • So many podcasts. So little time. #
  • Beautiful day. In search of a patio for lunch. #
  • I would not have wanted to meet this chicken in the alley, but it tasted good. http://t.co/6Gl5xn6u #

  • It's Friday, you know. #

  • Sometimes you find that a good app name is available and you feel compelled to do something about it. #
  • Big in Japan? http://t.co/yJD3Ujm3 #
  • Sponsoring @70Decibels podcasts last week was a great way to get the word out about my apps. Highly recommended. http://t.co/pnqTUEKQ #
  • I'm excited about the iPad 3, because once it's out we'll have 3 in the house and I might actually get to use one occasionally. #
  • So, I guess when Apple "schedules a call" with you, they don't bother to share when they scheduled it. Seems like useful information. #
  • Typically awesome NO funk from Galactic. http://t.co/yJFGQ5wB #
  • This trend in TX toward holding kids back so they start Kindergarten at age 6 is so counterintuitive to me. I just don't get it. #
  • Do not sprinkle batteries on your salad like croutons. http://t.co/A0qmXDRX #
  • Have not been able to bring myself to learn coffeescript yet. Am I really missing out? #
  • Take away from my adventures in refrigerator shopping? It's truly stunning how many models have features designed around pizza handling. #
  • I think Apple just gave me a reason to have a second Mac on my desk. #
  • So Xcode 4.3 is going to crash less, right? #
  • Schiller's going to come by my house and brief me, right?

    Better clean up. #

  • A week later, Apple has made the next move toward the call they "scheduled" with me to discuss my app review by asking for my phone number. #
  • I'm trying to compile a list of iOS apps that have "in-app browsers" – not dedicated browsing apps, but open a modal web view. Help? #
  • Also would like to know if they have an address bar for arbitrary browsing, or just open a link. #
  • Just me and the boys tonight. Feeling pizza, popcorn and "The Empire Strikes Back" #
  • Love the way each version of IE has it own set of CSS problems that render whole pages blank. It's so cute. #
  • Holy cow. If you have Minecraft for iOS, check your updates! #
  • "who's scruffy looking?" #
  • Watching "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids". Forgot it had Mrs. Kotter and Max Headroom in it. #

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2012-02-05

  • Missed Phraseology on "thePadcast" last week: http://t.co/gYHwDsFy #
  • While I'm sure it's fun, I will never water ski. It makes me think of the Go-Go's.

    Thank you, MTV. #

  • I have an Airport Extreme and a Time Capsule. I use the Utility about 2x a year. Last two times on my phone. Not that worried about it. #
  • Ouch, yet so funny. // RT @flyosity 67signals. http://t.co/xqpQPHIK #
  • Changing my contact email at AT&T's website generated a 2 emails, an SMS and snail mail to let me know about my own actions. Excessive. #

    Current status: Pixies at 11. #

  • Really finding out who in my circle has an inflated opinion of the importance of Ferris Bueller in cinematic history lately. #
  • Is there any valid defense of a dress code with different standards for boy's and girl's hair length? #
  • I have trouble finding pants with front pockets that do not purge their contents into an inviting couch. Coins, my front pocket wallet, etc. #
  • I do believe I like Wunderkit. I've been shopping for a new organizer, too. http://t.co/0M6GeJoI #
  • Fun to hear @marcoarment on @planetmoney. Has a slight "worlds colliding" feel to it. He'll probably be on "Ellen" next. #
  • Phraseology jumped to #23 productivity and 500+ no-referrer hits on it's page in the last hour. Can't find out the source, but I like it. #
  • Oh, this might have something to do with it: http://t.co/h6MXYlEW #
  • I have a custom LEGO set my son designed and ordered for me. It's all gravy from here on out. http://t.co/tbiX20Je #
