  • Come on Twitter. Let's see you pull off this maintenance without going down. You can do it! #
  • Yeah. I've decided. Tekzilla *is* the new Screen Savers. Veronica and Patrick + Revision 3's studios = WIN. http://www.tekzilla.com #
  • @usgeeks @chaseathompson Here are Brandon's (@leadingzero) electronics hacks: http://tinyurl.com/5hk2kx He had the zap gun at @BarCampBham. #
  • Power out and shaking in Decatur. Not confirmed. Any one able to? Impressive the power of New Madrid. #

  • thinks Tekzilla is about to hit critical mass, and become "the next big thing." Patrick and Veronica ~= Leo and Kate. I've been watching. #

  • http://www.sciencedebate2008.com #
  • headed to @barcampbham with @anothertomorrow (Aaron) and @mallorymartin, then to WAPI to meet @chaseathompson and @usgeeks (Sam). #
  • is @barcampbirmingham listening to @commonthread @jmccay talk on Ruby on Rails. #
  • Now it's Ed Noles (who's not on Twitter?!) demoing how 2 setup Adwords. @JeremyFlint n here 2, Twittering from the back. @BarCampBirmingham #
  • @JeremyFlint - I got essentially 500 free ad hits on Facebook, network and demograph specific, since FB ads let you pay per click or CPM. #
  • Is at (correction) @barcampbham not @barcampbirmingham. #
  • is listening to @bhamterminal talk about the open sharing of news. The self-made media? #
  • @chaseathompson @usgeeks. help. We're locked out. :) #
  • @BarCampBham (BarCampBirmingham2) with Doug Turnure (M$) on How to Have a More Successful Career In Software. Downstairs. #
  • To listen to M$ talk on being "successful" or to break out and head upstairs to talk new media with @Mulsanne gang. Yeah, going upstairs. #
  • Wondering is Twitter the "wisdom of crowds" effect in action? I now Google less and read Twitter more. #barcampbirmingham2 #
  • followed a bunch of #barcampbirmingham2 people into a Twitter talk. Now downstairs in a New Media "debate" talk. #
  • #barcampbirmingham2 @acnatta vs. Kyle Whitmire debating "new media." Kyle doesn't have twitter either? Sad day. #
  • My ? to New Media debate: 7% of 18 to 29 yr olds read newspapers. Isn't paper dead (literally)? What we need is more original reporting. #
  • Kyle Whitmire says that Craigslist is source of print media implosion. Some papers get 30% of revenue from classifieds. #barcampbirmingham2 #
  • Eh, "new media" debate = fail. Sorry. Big names, but no content. Mostly fluff, rambling, and self plugging. #barcampbirmingham2 #
  • listening to @jeremyflint chair the #barcampbirmingham2 next year planning talk. Following many new people. Not sure who they are yet. #
  • #barcampbirmingham2 My thoughts 4 next: wikify schedule. 2 much running back 2 check. Shorter twitter tag #barcampbham3. Like 45 min talks. #
  • #barcampbirmingham2 @barcampbham - Idea for next: ustream (stream) each room. Aggregate on BarCampBham page. cf. http://www.watchbol.com #
  • Ok, @acnatta is right. Streaming @barcampbham live on the internet might cannibalize the F2F attendance. #
  • Had a good time @barcampBham mtg people. Now out w/ @MalloryMartin & @anothertomorrow b4 heading home. Happy i won a php mysql book. Thx! #

  • @ecrivaine33 Mr. Filch = Hogwarts caretaker. (Harry Potter). I saw a guy who looked like him in the movies. :) #
  • Dear Apple. What do I have to do to get Audiobook support in FrontRow? That playist? It is NOT empty. Thanks. #
