writing my obligatory “at a party” Twitter message @captainroundeye @cbowns @myownvelouria #iamsuchatool
why does the facebook iPhone app utterly fail at letting me browse my friends’ friends? There is valuable stalking to be done, people!
what an incredibly long short week. Made better by the awesome out-of-service muni driver who helped me catch my bus. Dude was a mensch!

I think this one wins. Everything. Like, it wins the internet.
the jacket I’m wearing is disintegrating off my body. Corduroy wales unfurling into paper-thin wisps of fabric. I think I need a new jacket.
you ever tweet something and it just disagrees with you?
soooo… anyone gonna be in Montreal in November?

First chapter of Scott Rosenberg’s new book, focused on the notion of oversharing (specifically on Justin Hall)
warning: eating Skittles while playing Bejeweled will seriously fuck with your head.

Productive Memorial Day Weekend full of friends, planning and many (many) ticks off the ole checklist.

ADORABLE! @zynga sent @facebook cupcakes celebrating the 2-year anniversary of the FB application platform! http://bit.ly/17YnYX SO CUTE!!!
my computer and the Internet don’t seem to be getting along at the moment. Apologies for those in the midst of conversations with me.
Note to self: Mimosa is not the same thing as morning coffee. Kinda want to curl under desk and nap. Lesson learned.
ahhhh… http://yfrog.com/1294gcj
second moving day at Zynga in as many weeks. But they’re giving us mimosas this time, so it’s cool.
Decemberists concert was quite amazing. But now I have to contend with my serious man-crush on @colinmeloy. He just looks so huggable!!
heading to Oakland to see The Decemberists perform The Hazards of Love. Thesaurus rock ftw!!
RT @brendn: “Warning: integer constant is so large that it is unsigned” and RT @captainroundeye: “@brendn That’s what she said?” HA!
okay, @appgod is ridiculously entertaining to me, if only because I’ve been on the receiving end of that process before.
Game designers dwell in “potential space,” where they see not just what something IS, but everything it COULD be. Handy party trick, imho.
Trending Topics are ruining Twitter (and quite possibly the internet in general). They gotta go, @biz
sometimes I think Twitter throws up the Fail Whale not out of necessity, but rather just for old time’s sake.
I may have just fallen off a razor scooter. In front of my boss. And an HR guy. And a handful of respected coworkers. Possibly.
Gesturing helps you think →
Ha! Now people can’t make fun of me for gesticulating anymore!
Just a heads-up, internet: @captainroundeye is about to tweet his nipple. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
hardcore UI design this past weekend. Not work related, though. Visualizations for wedding week calendars, and file folder tabulation. What.
Twitter Coolness should be defined by # followers compared to # following, modified by the total number of tweets. Ergo, @checker = megacool
BIG CONGRATS to @brendn, @rebelprince et al at @socialbomb for winning Facebook’s fbFund ‘09!! http://bit.ly/d5Quq
misused the word “travesty” to a total stranger this morning. Took a LOT of willpower not to turn around and correct myself.
I think Bay to Breakers is killing cell networks in San Francisco. Anyone else having serious issues making phone calls?
Arm was in a weird position while sleeping last night and got super numb. Had to grab it with my other hand to reposition it. Dead limb get?

This site is awesome. I didn’t even know it existed.
I’m fairly certain I reek of garlic at the moment, having spent roughly 7 hours prepping garlic fries. Must exfoliate, Gattaca style.
spending a beautiful day volunteering be frycooking at AT&T Park http://yfrog.com/5fajiej
“San Francisco’s calling us: the Guants and Mets will play.” Ha! It’s funny ‘cause they are!
Drunk and wandering a Sports Authority. A logical combination, of course.
Soooo… bring on the beer! #ZyngaEmployees
Someone just followed me on Twitter. I was all like “Oh, so NOW you’re following me, huh?” till I realized I wasn’t actually following them.
shame on @captainroundeye for living in the same apartment as us and still failing to get his wedding rsvp in on time. EPIC RSVP FAIL, SIR!!
proposing that we officially designate the opposite of the “pinch” gesture in multi-touch interfaces as “goatseing”
