Complicated conversation
Yesterday I tweeted that I didn’t think an Archos device running Android would doom the iPad. Ricky immediately jumped on me for being an Apple fanboy. A discussion about Archos, iPods, and touch screens resulted involving myself, Ricky, and Jordan. I was fascinated by how the discussion spread across three mediums.
The result? Yes, Archos did some cool stuff before Apple, but Apple made those technologies global successes.
Note: I used cacoo to make the diagram.

Note: I tried both LittleSnapper and Paprazzi to get a screenshot of the website. LittleSnapper is only useful if you pay for it ($39!). I ended up using Command + Shift + 4 to take a few screenshots, and then Photoshop to put them together.
I ordered a TweetBook. Yes, it’s true.
It’s surprisingly easy to set up. You sign in with your Twitter credentials and your 200 most recent Tweets fill the book. Then you choose which Tweets to remove to allow room for older ones.

The ocean swallowed my keys:
I had a fancy Tumi keychain with a bunch of keys and discount cards dangling. I really liked it because of its similarity to something my Dad used when I was little. Well, it’s gone now thanks to the ocean (and my stupidity).
Blessing in disguise.
Creating a new set of keys taught me that I should only carry around the keys that are absolutely necessary. 1 ring. Apartment and car.
How minimalist.
Although extremely simple, I feel like something is missing. Something expressive. Any suggestions? Maybe a Gucci, Twitter, or Flickr logo perhaps?
Business Card v3:
I’m playing around with the third version of my personal business card. Vertical? Sure why not. The left half includes a list of places to find me on the internets. The right half goes one step further by providing URLs instead of just service names.
Any thoughts?
Who knows. Perhaps I’ll just clear out the service names and just leave my name and contact information.
My dream is to just put my name and URL. That might be a little too out there for 2009.
HTML signature:
Mailplane.app offers some pretty cool HTML signature features so I decided to make one. What do you think?
