• @rodcarroll On the iPhone (the iPad app isn't as good), I'd recommend Olive Tree's Bible Reader. If you like the Study Bible, it's the best. in reply to rodcarroll #
• Ok- If you're going 2 play a game as uncivilized as soccer, then stop whining when you get some contact. OBTW, your fans think they're bees. #
• @grahamhancock No. That said - have you tried Posterous? in reply to grahamhancock #
• So now that it's finally over, does anyone have a total for how many times they faked injudry or whined "Why didn't you call that, ref?" #
• @AnitaRenfroe Well, one thing's for sure: it sure stands out for the other 2am insomniac folks... in reply to AnitaRenfroe #
• My iPhone 4 review (with dock and bumper, and signal issues commentary) in progress: http://j.mp/cu3JB3 #
• @ambermac I just found (via plancast) http://www.tungle.me - seems NatN'ish. They also have a free iOS / BB app. Still exploring. Grace 2 U. #
• I have to say, Microsoft did get one thing exceptionally right. ALT+TAB. The Windows 3.1 "cool switch." We still use it today- OS X & Win 7! #
• I can't think of any other key-combo that has survived so long. Can you? CTRL+ALT+DEL doesn't count because it's not used the same way. #
• [F1] still reaches help in Windows, but does anyone actually use it? (And unlike, ALT+TAB, it never made its way to other OSes.) #
• AHhHHHHHHhhhhhhhhHHHH!.... Southern Baptists... this is just painful to read.... http://j.mp/cwR9dc (link via @dianelytle) #

• @StephenWolfe Thanks. It's 'cause I shortened an already shortened URL. I posted it again with a better URL. in reply to StephenWolfe #
• .@mrbradg http://bit.ly/dD9VKM - or, in summary: that story is a sad example of the SBC preaching a false, "check here to be saved," gospel. #
• This is probably the most appropriate response to that story: http://bit.ly/9eonBM - youtube video. (@mrbradg) #
• I too can independently confirm that the iPhone4's proximity sensor has issues (not working) when on call. My cheek was editing my contacts. #
• I was about to tweet out a link to news about the oil leak being stopped. Then I realized it was an AP news article. Different link to come. #
• Oil leak plugged (for now) - http://bit.ly/amU7i9 (non-AP news link) #
• After having experienced the antenna issue & today experiencing the proximity sensor issue (cheek-press), I'm about 20% toward returning it. #
• @CBS42 Your Windows box feeding the video just binged, and to a guy on an iMac, the random Windows noise was really concerning for a minute. in reply to CBS42 #
• @JohnLBurger The only reason to be on AT&T is the iPhone. :) If I took back the 4, it would be for refund and to un-extend the contract. in reply to JohnLBurger #
• @JohnLBurger Yeah... and there's an app for that? Oh wait... not on the Palm there's not. Not hardly any. iOS or Android is the way to go. in reply to JohnLBurger #
• A rare moment on the Clinton News Network, when everyone agreed- Pres. Obama's moratorium on drilling is bad for everyone & BP is negligent. #
• @JohnLBurger I have 440 of 225,000 iOS apps. I don't think you wanna compare app stores. :) in reply to JohnLBurger #
• @chriswaskew really? I was hoping - even perhaps thinking - they'd announce an exchange for ones with coating, which they sorta-kinda did. in reply to chriswaskew #
• Does anyone know if there is a jQuery library to make this video embed effect easy? And how does the javascript know when the movie is done? #
• @jonbergan No replies, but I haven't searched google yet. It's really the Apple style quicktime start+show/ end+hide that I'm interested in. in reply to jonbergan #
• @chriswaskew Have you not had the proximity sensor issue? (cheek-presses?) What case did u get? If the bumper: do you use an FM transmitter? in reply to chriswaskew #
• @walter25 Interesting. in reply to walter25 #
• @chriswaskew Alright. I have the Bumper, but I'm waiting for the incase slider case. They're my favorite. in reply to chriswaskew #
