Twitter Updates for 2009-06-21

• I wish library shelves could be as meta aware as Amazon recommendations, & group books I might like. Alas limitations of the physical world. #
• @nsstcweather This is rising like a smoke stack. My location: wood ave Florence looking north. http://twitpic.com/7i7zn #
• @onehalfamazing They probably had Perian installed and didn't realize it. QT supports FLV no problem, with right codecs. This means nothing. in reply to onehalfamazing #
• @ikepigott Maybe the proper answer is meant 2 be "Hate crimes against racial groups" for low-level, since obviously protests should be fine. in reply to ikepigott #
• @ikepigott Well, that's what ACLU says. It could be as simple as a typo on the key got picked up media. If true tho, let's protest the quiz. in reply to ikepigott #
• Liked "Cell Phone Execs Will Face Questions On Text Messaging Price Hikes | NEWS JUNKIE" http://ff.im/43a9s #
• Facebook continues to abandon its former identity as *a facebook* to become a friendfeed clone. Search all users' posts: http://bit.ly/cpktX #
• .@grahamhancock Having been using it 4 a while, here R some u may not notice @ 1st: >9 pages for apps, per SMS erase/forward, landscape SMS. #
• @ScottSchablow I've been on iPhone OS 3 for a while. It's pretty hammered out already. See my previous tweet for some less noticed features. in reply to ScottSchablow #
• @Star949 Was your caps-lock key stuck? in reply to Star949 #
• @Star949 Maybe I'm just listening to closely, but ur screaming was hard on the eyes. Ok, metaphor broke down. Just sayin- it's hard to read. in reply to Star949 #
• @Star949 No harm done. Just wanted to let you know, incase you were thinking about going all twitter-screamo regularly- not a good format :) in reply to Star949 #
• @grahamhancock Thinking about your ATT tweet. It must be that they're lacking in pre-orders, as we know they care less about "what's right." in reply to grahamhancock #
• @grahamhancock I've been saying and others have too, that Apple is ditching ATT next year, and this is ATT's effort to get u 2 reup the 2yr. in reply to grahamhancock #
• RT @spidercam: AT&T's free hotspot access finally useful with auto-connection in iPhone OS 3.0 http://bit.ly/HS2pc #
• OK, I'm STILL seeing very long backup times on iPhone OS 3. It's my only issue w/ it. Is anyone else having this problem? #
• @JKMFilms Where r u hearing end of 09 for ATT 3G? I was hoping 4 end of 08, as ATT runs 2yrs behind Verizon in NorthAL & EVDO was here n 06. in reply to JKMFilms #
• Moussavi: Improbable challenger for Iranian regime - CNN.com. My thoughts on Moussavi in the comments on Friendfeed: http://ff.im/4aeN8 #
• A less talked abt feature of new iPhone 3G-S. It works & comes w/ the new headphones tht include volume +/-. 3G doesn't: http://ff.im/4apa3 #
• Fri, 6am EST: #iPhone 3G-S already disassembled w/ step by step instruction: http://bit.ly/sEhNZ. France released the 3G-S twelve hours ago. #
• AT&T stores in #Shoals have less than 30 iPhone 3G-s's. #
• My unscientific testing: Edge data has slowed noticably in the #Shoals over last 30min. #
• 4 the time being, Twittelator Pro is the only app w/iPhone 3G-S video upload support on launch day - works with yFrog. @atebits, where r ya? #
• @amberweinberg Were you not qualified for an early upgrade after they relaxed the rules? http://bit.ly/QXzZZ Or do you want an actual trade? in reply to amberweinberg #
• @at_phillips Thanks. I wasn't going 2 at first, but after I factored in the value of selling my 3G 16GB unlocked, I figured it was worth it. in reply to at_phillips #
• @amberweinberg December? I see. That's unfortunate. By then, it might be worth waiting til January to see if Apple announces a Verizon deal. in reply to amberweinberg #
• @amberweinberg I tend 2 hate all wireless carriers n the US regarding contracts. But Verizon seems 2 hav better coverage most places. My 2¢. in reply to amberweinberg #
• The oleophobic coating on the #iPhone 3G(S) definitely affects the gamma, maybe the brightness 2. Whites look yellowish, side by side w/ 3G. #
• @bkbeall Using the Skype and TextPlus iPhone apps basically makes the iPod Touch a cordless phone with SMS when used in WiFi, with Skype-In. in reply to bkbeall #
• @bkbeall Google #Voice is nice but still requires a phone, and unless I've missed it (I'm a light user), it doesn't have an #iPhone app yet. in reply to bkbeall #
• Another #iPhone 3G(s) review tweet: it *is* faster to respond, speaker is the same, gamma is lower (washed out), voice control is difficult. #
• @bkbeall Jailbreaking allows u to run Skype in the background. There were a few bugs early on, but unlikely now. 3.0 jailbreak is days away. in reply to bkbeall #
• Last #iPhone 3G(s) review tweet 4 now: The compass gets interference easily, and it instructs you (no joke) to wave it around in a figure 8. #
• I just thought 2 do an FCC ID check. The leaked #iPhone 3G(s) case pictures here: http://bit.ly/12OWZ [MacRumors forums] were in-fact valid. #
• Sigh. One more #iPhone 3G(s) review tweet: I almost forgot the camera. The tap to focus *also* adjusts exposure- nice. Also, video is fluid. #
• Testing to see if I can upload video from the iPhone to FriendFeed. http://ff.im/4bnVf #
• Quick test video from the iPhone 3G(s). http://ff.im/4brDq #
• When I first plugged in my #iPhone 3G(s) it wanted to send in a crash report. Just checked it. Yep, my 3G(s) was used & crashed on June 4th! #
• @abstractrandom I think JarfOmega should be blocked from the @ShoalsArea retweet. He's done this irrelevant, vulgar stuff b4. Your thoughts? #
• Weird. Concerning. My #iPhone 3G(s) was ringing, when it crashed. Left a black screen and the vibrate on. Had to hold power + home to reset. #
• Liked "Free iPhone PSD file - SoftFacade" http://ff.im/4eas9 #
• @Stacy_Ryan Welcome to Twitter. #
• I just realized that the early leaked screen shots of the 'show battery %', that we thought were of OS 3, were actually of the iPhone 3G(s). #
