Odd, my Election ‘08 app is now a Slate app that costs $1. Nice that my update to that is free, though I’m not happy with all the changes.

Today I learned: example.com (and .net and .org) is reserved for use in documentation and not available for registration.

Wow, www.interviewpalin.com is fantastic. Really, really well done.

I’m glad to be wrong on this, as it was too hard to tell you all about @louiemantia ’s awesome design work on the new Obama app. Nice job!

Ok, some of you are right, it’s undocumented, but where you put the @reply does matter. They should make that clearer, in my mind.

Easy to check with someone following you, but not following me to see if they got that? I still bet others don’t see @ s they don’t follow.

If you’re telling the world how great someone is, putting an @ in there messes it up. Especially bad: using up a funny, non-existent @ name.

I suspect most twitter users don’t realize putting an @ into a Tweet means (by default) no one not following that person will see your note.

The official Obama ‘08 iPhone app is pretty fancy.

Reading up on “blue dog democrats”. Not sure yet how they differ from Libertarians.

The “Don’t vote” video feels too contrived and manipulative to me. I don’t expect it will work on whoever these people are who don’t vote.

7 injured at Michelle Obama’s rally? The live video feed just seems to be someone dehydrated or fallen: tr.im/5s9

I have only one care about post-season baseball this year: To see the Cubs lose. Decidedly, soundly, firmly defeated. All else is butter.

Is there some place to look up the changes in a given iPhone app update? I forgot to check when I clicked update.

I superglued my thumb to my cats paw tonight. Accidentally, I promise.

Lunchtime quandary: Which show would do better? DOC COPTERS vs COP DOCTORS.

Barney Frank for president in 2016. Search for “uncharacteristically nicely” if you haven’t read that quote.

When can I opt in to update all my apps while I sleepand get emailed a changelog?

Almost all mattress news today is about the bailout: tinyurl.com/3svqrm

New stock-stat-term I invented: Mattress-Day - Date prior to today the Dow ended at or below this level. Today’s M-D is October 21st, 2005.

Listening to Jazzy Jeff showing off his beat-box prowess by responding to The Fresh Prince’s challenge of “Sanford & Son as if underwater!”

I want an option in iTunes album view to only show completed albums, not all these ones I have one or two songs from. Please?

Surprises me that Yahoo finances comes up before Google finances on searches like this: www.google.com/search

I am pretty successful at convincing myself these big Dow Jones drops are great times to consider upping investments. 20% off sale on Aapl!

It’s hilarious that in 2008 people still think Domain A forwarding to Domain B indicates ownership or other responsibility by Domain B.
