Looks like the fun & mayhem for that CoD Elite Poker Set begins 10/1 at 11 AM PDT… but you need to register for it…

via Adium

Wow! Call of Duty #CoDElite Poker Set!!!

via Adium

@sarahEmagee FWIW, I sometimes enjoy a bit of quiet time, like that.

via Adium in reply to social_sarah

Hmm… is MW3 Hardened Edition already sold out on the pre-orders?

via Adium

@Veronica Actually, isn’t that why Call of Duty #BlackOps has a Mature rating? Profanity: check. Violence: check. Even a bit o’ gore: check.

@majornelson Don’t suppose a dual-bay Xbox 360 S console is coming soon? :-)

via Adium in reply to majornelson

Actually, it’s that “old” transfer cable that y’all know and love… so, yeah, you can migrate out of the lesser capacity “old” HDDs, too.

via Adium

http://tell.im/aj … and no, it’s not for migrating from the “new” 250 Xbox 360 HDD to the larger 320 GB one…

@CaliLewis … Just don’t let anybody know I told you where to fetch the src. ;-)

via Adium in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis actually, I think there’s a more unstable branch at the other server: svn+ssh://cali@craziest.world.ever/branches/whoa/freaky

via Adium in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis … the SVN URL works every 2nd Tuesday of every week, though. We haven’t moved it to Hg yet, either. :-P

via Adium in reply to CaliLewis

@CaliLewis Try this to check out the code so you can fix it: svn+ssh://cali@crazy.world.ever/branches/world_maint_fixes/gen_1

@Veronica Tsk tsk… ;-) But at least you’re having fun, right? Ne ne?

Anybody try using CruiseControl.NET as a command line invocation instead of running it as a service?

Ever have one of those odd moments when you invoke #Maven on your #Jenkins CI instance 20 times, and each time something different happens?

via web

Wow… When is Maven not working like Maven should? Hmm…

via web

Wonder how easy it’d be to manufacture a new human persona on the #Facebook #Timeline ? [Easier|harder] ?

via web

Ooh, #TheMentalist has returned… guilty pleasure? Or pause in-between #Borderlands mayhem? Hmm… And then there’s the #HaloReach Weekly!

via web

@CaliLewis Sure, signed up… but undecided about the UI and Google account tracking. Are you releasing Google+ specific content?

via web in reply to CaliLewis

#PersonOfInterest Yeah, okay, let’s toss in a hashtag while I’m at it. http://t.co/BIheaO9S #QuantumLeap Here’s another! :-)

Hmm… So, doesn’t Person of Interest feel like a new Quantum Leap? http://t.co/BIheaO9S

@CaliLewis Any console gamers over at LL willing to push that router w/ port fwding and report back?

@summertomato Just stumbled onto your site, via #GooglePlus, of all things. Interesting bio. :-)

via Adium

on reflection, I think perhaps the new group is going to have to be “The #GooglePlus 12” … Just a dozen. Nada mas, folks.

via Adium

hmm… okay, a lot of comments in #GooglePlus seem to be about blocking people from other people…

via Adium

Hmm… so does it make sense to institute a New 40 on #GooglePlus ? Or maybe keep it at a reduced number, like 20?

via Adium

So you’re already using an #AstroA40 or some sort of Turtle Beach headset? Still: get the wireless MW3 controllers… http://tell.im/ag

via Adium

hmm… getting rid of the modal sharing dialogs… where have I heard that before?

via Adium

But as you guys know, I *like* to overload my #Twitter #hashtags meanings… for free.

via Adium

Okay, so #Facebook Open Graph is still structured, thus requires taxonomic specificity? So getting closer to #Twitter #hashtags

@ginatrapani But wouldn’t the argument for #WordPress be that it’s simple enough to be the blog for non-bloggers…

via Adium in reply to ginatrapani

@sarahdope Didn’t you hear? There are going to be a whole new line of FB apps! Like animated bloody or fire page breaks! :-)

via Adium in reply to sarahdope

Also a lot of similarities between the photoblog #Timeline and the ubiquitous #Tumblr , esp. the really visually oriented ones.

via Adium

@sarahdope Of course, given the demise of #GeoCities, the new FB Timeline is its replacement. Of sorts.

via Adium in reply to sarahdope

@sarahdope Or a more lower-tech 1990’s equivalent, #GeoCities , at least the more social sites there…

via Adium in reply to sarahdope

@alexkingorg Anybody send you a request for a #Facebook #Timeline front-end for their #Wordpress platform yet? :-)

via Adium

@photomatt This really affirms just how profound #WordPress really is, to other social media platforms… #Timeline

via Adium

like, when you view those really nicely-done #WordPress blogs that combine all of the bloggers’ personality and newsbits… #Facebook

via Adium

what’s interesting about #Facebook #Timeline is that it has that look reminiscent of #WordPress blogs when you flip through the posts!

via Adium

Uh… Didn’t we see something like Facebook’s Timeline back in 2005?

via Adium

Hmm… Facebook “Timeline”…
