experimenting on Java Latte’s web site, to see how well Amazon ads automatically match the content of the site. http://c8h10o2n4.tumblr.com

yesterday, on the road, i was experimenting with a @BrightKite account for tracking where i am. @MYKLwhere = http://bit.ly/1irkp

ever more amber at my back, the sun blazes on the days before me, beckoning just beyond the twilight mountains of summer.
Aug 28th
when i pause to reflect, i’m stunned by all the technologies i nearly take for granted.
Aug 27th
i went with green for “go” and grey for “over and done with”, plus orange for “woa, look at this!”
Aug 27th
now i’m using it to tell 3000+ people about it, mostly because i got a time to kill. and i never once opened my mouth.
Aug 27th
then i used the same phone to triangulate my terrestrial coordinates via satellite and estimate my ETA to the airport.
Aug 27th
i’m in my car. i just used the airline’s web site to find out @Natterjack’s flight is delayed. using my telephone. wtf?

if you’d explained to 10-year-old sci-fi reading Mykl that this would be my middle age, idda told ya you were stupid.

what color says “do this”, “take action”? i’m designing a custom app that changes color to indicate the status and urgency of actions.
Aug 26th
what color says “all done”, “task complete” or “well done”?

today is a packing day @HearthHill, preparing to drive to central Maryland for a week, but also packing for OTR.
Aug 25th
#HootSuite pros include: web-based access from any computer; multiple users (co-workers) can post to same micro-blog; beaucoup features.
Aug 25th
clotted with every possible feature, still a beta, @PeopleBrowsr wants to be the power user’s one interface for every major social network.
Aug 25th
#Nambu (@NambuCom) supports multiple Twitter accounts, but only a single @PingFM account. distinct services are difficult to distinguish.
Aug 25th
still looking for a client app that’s less hungry than @Twhirl, supporting multiple Twitter accounts linked to multiple Ping.fm accounts.
Aug 25th
a buggy crashing beta, #Nambu promises to be a native Mac app (no AdobeAIR) handling multiple accounts on Twitter, Facebook, etc — someday.
Aug 25th
#PeopleBrowsr (beta) potentially does almost everything, if you can decipher it’s chockablock interface. strictly for power users.
Aug 25th
it took the better part of a day for #Eudora Mailbox Cleaner to convert 760 mailboxes, over 2 million messages, and 986 filters (rules).
Aug 25th
meanwhile, without crotchety old #Eudora 6 running in Rosetta on my MacBookPro, i notice everything else is more responsive and stable.
Aug 25th
i still must back-up, test and activate these mailboxes and rules in #Mail.app. it will be a while before I have full email access.

the strength of @EventBox is as a reading more than a posting tool. not for power users with multiple accounts on the same service(s).
Aug 25th
a combined social media and news reader, the native Mac app @EventBox can read from and post to several popular web services.
Aug 25th
in my quest for the best multi-service social media client application, i’m bookmarking contenders, as i go. http://delicious.com/Mykl.biz

the highly recommended #Eudora Mailbox Cleaner 4.9 crashed every time i ran it on my Intel processor MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.5.8).
Aug 24th
updating my @Flickr profile using one computer, while another converts 16+ gigabytes (11+ years) worth of email to Mail.app format.
Aug 24th
looking for a full-featured multi-account Twitter client with @PingFM integration; i’d like @Facebook built-in, as well.
Aug 24th
after 2 hours, #Eudora Mailbox Cleaner has converted 200 of 820 mailboxes, and is still going strong on my old G4 laptop. #fingerscrossed

i don’t mind unanticipated obstacles; they keep life interesting and educational — provided that my troubleshooting ideas work. #problems
Aug 24th
a multitude of features pack @HootSuite’s fairly tidy web interface. not for casual or beginner Twitter users. #TwitterApps
Aug 24th
the upfront cost of the HootSuite 2.0 multi-account Twitter webapp is tweeting about it, once. as you just saw, i paid up.
Aug 24th
I upgraded to #HootSuite 2.0 because i’m testing its @PingFM integration and other features. http://hootsuite.com/upgrade
Aug 24th
while #HootSuite supports multiple Twitter accounts, it only supports a single @PingFM account, making it less functional than #Twhirl.

thinking the best thing i learned this summer is how to roast my own beef. there’s no goin’ back to store-bought cold cuts, now. #cooking
