So, which is more annoying, POSSE permalinks w/ … if continued, in () if not, or Aral Balkan’s …tweet…continued…thing…? For comparison:
Personally I find the …/() permalink/shortlink/short id pattern to be much more readable, especially when there are multiple long tweets happening at the same time, and they are mainly one or two words over Twitter’s limit. But it is more cluttered than the … technique.
Kyle Weems:
Trying out Twitter in the browser only. Because sooner or later that's all we'll have.
cssquirrel I much prefer twitter in the browser because I can get rid of ads and promoted tweets, and customise the UI so I reply, retweet and favourite on my site instead. Pity I can't so easily on mobile — perhaps an ios app which is just a web view with some custom JS… #webactions #idea
@anna_debenham Paul Lloyd Pro thanks, that’s great! I’ll certainly use that as a building block/reference it in my own work
Anna Debenham in your style guide researches, have you come across any great open source project styleguides? I’m looking into making myself more design-accountable for a project I’m releasing soon.
Laura Kalbag:
All you strange folk telling me to push my brain back up my nose…listen, if it comes out my ears, it’s going back that way…
Laura Kalbag if you're a #peanuts fan, you could always try jump starting your brain. But watch out for trees.
.Brennan Novak yeah, it’s like driving — the ability to concentrate on your overall journey, the road in the distance, the road ahead, the road directly in front of you, the road behind and all the various controls at the same time.
Erin Jo Richey:
@BarnabyWalters It's quite nice music for working to or walking to actually. Although my choice in music is sometimes a bit strange.
Erin Richie thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give it a go! RE strange choice in music: try one of my favourite experimental #gurdy pieces out:
Aral Balkan:
By the way, quite a few examples of the male gaze (http://t.co/fRk67WPvjz) in those jokes. See if you can spot them.

Aral Balkan I was just reading those and thinking “I’m surprised Aral’s shared this — then again perhaps it’s some kind of test”
Playing with some of blekko’s algorithmic slashtags. /people seems broken (almost never returns any results, not entirely sure what it’s for. /blog seems a bit broken (compare: web actions with web actions /blog — first contains far more relevant results). Looking forward to hopefully getting API access so I can autogenerate slashtags from my XFN.
Tantek Çelik:
"Which high school did you go to?" "Which city did you grow up in?" #Security Qs? No, #Facebook profile prompts. #fail (ttk.me t4Nj5)
Tantek Çelik I ignored city, as it’s so often used that I see it as synonymous for town/village (a shorter version of “settlement” perhaps), but the high school/university ones got on my nerves. Ended up ignoring high school (what even is that) and put Totnes School of Guitarmaking for “university”
Tom Morris:
@tigerchops The canonical version is on my site. Twitter is just syndication. See http://t.co/cZuTFr1g7W
Tom Morris tigerchops twitter is just temporary infrastructure for social BC ;) #indieweb

Poll: Do you *ever* save sites to you iPhone/iPad's homescreen? Are web devs wasting time adding icons and chromeless web app launchability?
cgcardona this reply is written from one :) But generally I only use them as bookmarks, not “apps”
.haschek’s #indieweb site is nice: http://michael.haschke.biz/
sophiedennis that’s the plan! I’ll try to gen up on #electronics skills whilst in #iceland so I can get it going when back at home
Buying a Hurdy Gurdy — Simon Wascher’s personal criteria for #gurdy buying. #bookmark #music
sophiedennis your project sounds a bit like my gurdies! I’ve been nearly there for days. Got the Keyboxes glued on today, so almost finished now.
Aral Balkan nice positive reply tweet: thank you for making me aware of the male gaze. Not something I’ve though about before but now I see it everywhere and it makes me angry #sexism
Aral Balkan:
Dear PHP community, yes, you do have a sexism problem.
