| — | Roger Ebert. I’m not about to make the over-obvious point, but I will tease at it: I started watching Sneak Previews religiously in about 1980; I’ve read the man’s books; I’ve seen the unbearable movie he wrote the screenplay for; I’ve seen the drunken outtakes; I’ve admired him since the Reagan era. But, something’s changed in the last few years. He’s playing with real money now. Man’s doing some of his best writing, and he’s fine with pulling out Twitter-perfect Wilde-isms like this. Love this guy. He’s a hero, and a Mensch, and (yay, Roger), he’s just killing it on Twitter. Good on ya, man. |

Guys. Relax. You’re not made of papier-mâché. People fight about things that matter to them.
If the internet were all Benny Hill, Evanescence, and self-harm diaries, we’d still be on fucking LiveJournal.
And, I, for one, will NOT blog for the Russians. No, sir.

I think we found a new term today.
@holes.
(Apologies if that’s been bandied about already and I missed it. Please don’t feel the need to @ me to let me know of my error.)

Also, every time I see a Segway in the wild like this, I can’t help but be disappointed.

Whoa Nelly.You know Panic Inc., makers of excellent Mac software and unpredictable goods? Did you know they now have a blog?
On it you can read all about a new non-software product they (I mean we) are rolling out today: Panic Retro Boxes and Posters. It’s a long story, and since Cabel wrote it, you’ll want to read it.

Great Uses For Twitter
1. Posting about who you’re having dinner with.
2. Ever have dinner with people that are also on Twitter? Make a post that says you’re having dinner with them.
3. Next time you’re having dinner with someone, make a post that at-replies the username of that person and say you’re having dinner with them.
4. You’re having dinner. Look around the table. Note who is on Twitter and make a post that says you’re having dinner with that person.
5. Make a reservation at a restaurant (make sure to invite someone that uses the communication client Twitter). When you get to the restaurant, give your name and wait for them to seat you at your table. Wait for the other guests to arrive. When that particular guest arrives, the one that uses Twitter, make a post about what you’re doing at the moment — having dinner with the invited guest — and address them with the name they chose to use on Twitter. Put an @ symbol before their name.
