• Got my line in to work! Ridiculously and unreasonably happy about 64-bit audio drivers. #

• Transport and ticket for BarCamp NewsInnovation Philadelphia 2010 secured. Now need to work out a place to crash. #
• @alextirrell @isaghani Tweetup is for folks to talk about whatever. Just a time for all of us on Twitter to meet up in person #cmanyc10 in reply to alextirrell #
• @cmanyc @alextirrell @isaghani + the rest of #cmanyc10 – Make the Tweetup what you want it to be. Info: http://tweetcmanyc10.eventbrite.com/ #
• Making an Eventbrite event… surprisingly more complicated then expected… #
• @isaghani @cmanyc @alextirrell I was thinking that right after the last session at 6:35pm might be good. #cmanyc10 #tweetup in reply to isaghani #

• Keep brand strong, don't stop reaching out to advertisers. #cmanyc10 #
