Jovian Salak:
@BarnabyWalters I understand the first half of that tweet but the second is technobabble!
JovianSalak I’ll show you the results, that should clear things up :)
Joel Stewart:
Hurrying back to David Byrne's How Music Works after Howard Goodall's smug tv take on the subject.
joelestewart yeah, I found him quite irritating, and the Gurdy was completely misrepresented! But must be great for those less musically inclined.
Jovian Salak:
Pirates promote #anarchy with stealing from the rich and all, but "take what you can, give nothing back" seems rather #Tory. What to think?!
JovianSalak #creativecommons licensing, of course!
roopagulati sure! I’ve repaired banjos before, not done a use yet but there’s little technical difference to a guitar
John Nye:
Our phones are so big, we include a free handset with them for making calls… http://t.co/ADczaKH9
john_nye good god that’s hideous. But in hindsight it was only a matter of time :/
Jovian Salak:
What's this that's arrived? My #creativecommons stickers and badges! Now I just need some ironic sticker-ing places... http://t.co/08ltVwQ0
@JovianSalak oh cool! briansuda gave me some similar ones after #indiewebcamp in Sept. I really need to start sticking them on things…
Laurent Eschenauer:
@BarnabyWalters I got audio in #srorytlr, nice example here: http://t.co/7aC22b6M - any audio related µf I should add ? Would be nice.
Laurent Eschenauer well, there’s hAudio, but I’ve never used it and don’t know much about it. There isn’t a µf2 vocab yet but better than nothing ;)
Abigail Harrison:
Hashtags: do people really use them to discover? Hands-up people.... maybe social media people do and 'normal' people don't? #twittersci
.abigailH hashtag discovery usage is low because of Twitters anaemic implementation. See Diaspora for a great, well-used implementation.
Tom Morris:
@BarnabyWalters an international man of mystery, mostly to be found sitting at a computer swearing at broken things. http://t.co/BqByEZXt
@tommorris last time Oscar saw an @-name he liked on my screen (cssquirrel) he spent the rest of the day repeating it. Over. and. over. again.
Brian Suda:
hears a big thunder-clap in Reykjavik. Haven't heard one of those in a long time. Only seen lightening in this country twice in 6-7 years.
@briansuda the last decent thunderstorm I’ve seen in SW England was about that long ago too :(
erin kissane:
Quite. RT @evilrooster: @kissane On the other hand, anything typed is arguably digital.
kissane tangible for objects/works, in-person, f2f or IRL for conversations or interactions
adamstrawson lookin’ good! How about some rel=me goodness on those profile links? Helps great tools like identengine.com (⇐ has cool API) exist
Seb Lee-Delisle:
Supermarket in C - a great project but wish they would have chosen a more interesting scale :) http://t.co/OxJaRpYo @blprnt ht@chrisoshea
seb_ly gotta love F# phrygian!

Once again, apparently a good 404 page is more to do with pretty graphics than helping the user. Bollocks it is! http://t.co/vEsibVrj
boagworld http://www.examprofessor.com/404 is particularly bad as it makes the visitor feel as if they have made a mistake :/
bruce lawson for all the wrong reasons ;)
Aral Balkan:
Funny to think my first blog ever was plain static HTML, then a custom full-Flash site, then b2/Wordpress, and now plain static HTML again.
aral I find I go in similar “abstraction loops” for many things. Start off basic → try out an abstraction → try out a higher abstraction → and another → get tired of abstractions, return to the original/something similar. The process always informs me in useful ways, however horrible the intermediate results are ;)
laurakalbag they add significant value to conversations, as they provide a recognisable visual indication of who is speaking and where each comment starts/ends. I am inclined against comments, but would recommend having avatars if you do :)
Jovian Salak:
@BarnabyWalters thanks but its only 20mins walk, I'll stop by Tods en route! At least I got a #timelapse!
JovianSalak looking forward to seeing it :)
JovianSalak are you walking back? I could give you a lift if you let me know where you are…
