  • I need a better tool for managing (creating/modifying) Twitter lists. Any ideas? #
  • Oh hey… that's sort of cool. #bluehost found a timthumb script I had forgotten to update and updated it for me. That's nice of them. #
  • @helenhousandi I think once you get locked into the system, it would take too long for it to be worth switching. #
  • @andrea_r That's great for looking at the tweets but I'd like to look at the folks I'm following + see what lists they are in at a glance. #
  • @helenhousandi Yeah, it goes w/Esperanto in 'Things that totally make sense if only everyone wasn't too busy to learn them from scratch.' 🙂 #

  • Ok… stumbled my way on to Stellar. Are you on there? Send me a link so I can follow you. #
  • @alexpriest I hope the weather stays like this forever. Can we do that? #
  • @nakeva I use it for both. The most use is probably for coordinating who I hire or contract. Designers and videographers most of all. #
  • @nakeva Yeah, its simplicity is definitely an asset for folks who aren't very into tech. #
  • @jimmacmillan Dogs have the best lawyers. The dogs find them through all their Twitter and Facebook profiles. 😉 #
  • @nakeva The latest version of Adobe Bridge is useful for performing batch actions and organizing lots of photos. #
