Daily Twitter Roundup

Here are the things I am willing to admit to having done today:

  • 02:27 For those who don't get today's #xkcd: bit.ly/4lNWVV #
  • 02:53 I find @evernote makes a great way to get typed text into iPhone OS3's clipboard. Sync, search, mark, copy, paste. Beats thumbing it all in. #
  • 08:21 I gather there's some kind of contest on that you enter by saying #squarespace. I wonder what this #squarespace thing is? #
  • 08:37 @jeffkirvin @kimberlykaye isn't that from Mark Twain? #
  • 12:56 Waiting at the University Plaza convention center for the other con staffers to show up. #
  • 14:28 At the Coffee Ethic, having toured the convention facilities then gotten a ride downtown. Any other #sgf tweeps in the area? #
  • 14:29 The iPod Touch autocorrects "tweep" to "twerp". I am amused. #
  • 14:34 Just got a call re a Reuters position I applied for in Creve Coeur. It turned out to be a 3 mo contract & I need something permanent. #
  • 14:36 Ethic cappucino was good. Will probably wander around library next door for a while. Any #sgf ppl in area drop me a line? #
  • 14:48 Can you identify this #auto #engine?bit.ly/tTVNw #olds #oldsmobile #car #delta88 #
  • 15:53 Sitting on a library computer next to some guy with earphones plugged in and singing along with YouTube videos. #
  • 15:57 Here's the car that will be mine as soon as I have a job. bit.ly/wa4W9 #
  • 16:08 @gwenix The problem is, I can't pack up my life and move to another city based on nothing more substantive than a 3 month contract. #
  • 16:09 @gwenix If there were one in Springfield, I'd happily consider it. #
  • 16:11 Ten minute warning on this library computer session. Will probably pack it up and mosey on soon. Get something to eat, wander around some... #
  • 16:16 And off I go. #
  • 16:22 Talked with the librarian here a while. Really is a nice place. There's a farmers market in the square now, think I'll check it out. #
  • 16:36 At Coffee Ethic again, bothering @swagbot.  #
  • 16:55 At Merle's for a hot dog. Can't seem to log into city wifi. Annoying. #
  • 16:58 twitpic.com/7u9pa - Now THIS is a good 'dog! #
  • 17:13 Huh. The #sgf downtown wifi is being discontinued as of July 1. Sad. #
  • 17:15 Not that it's terribly useful to me right now given that I can't log in, but still. #sgf #
  • 17:19 About done at Merle's. Great little hot dog place in downtown #sgf. Sometimes you just want a 'dog. #
  • 17:34 At the bus station, waiting on the number 5. #
  • 17:39 And 5 is about the only bus that hasn't shown up yet… #
  • 17:40 And it's hot, and I'm getting sweaty… #
  • 17:42 It finally showed up. #
  • 17:59 Stopped at Dillon's. Didn't really want to, but almost out of canned cat food, and kitties need to eat. #
  • 18:04 Ended up saving $2 on 12 cans with a couple coupons I barely remembered I had, so not a bad outcome all in all. #
  • 18:12 Whew. Glad I checked to see if I had the right change. Had to break a dollar so I'd have a dime for the bus. #
  • 18:25 Off the bus, hoofing it two blocks back home. I want my car. :( #
  • 18:31 Stopped at the open wifi point halfway home to rest and tweet. #
  • 18:35 @evancass But slacktivism is how the Internet works! ANYTHING can be fixed by changing the color of your icon and signing e-petitions! #
  • 18:42 Whew. Back home at last. #
  • 18:49 twitpic.com/7un24 - Does it cost a buck? #
