To whoever egged our car last night… oh, nevermind, you’re not on Twitter.

These photos of the Swedish Bahnhof datacenter where Wikileaks is hosted make it look like the set of a movie. http://j.mp/gZrQoV

@shauninman I’m not sure why we’d disable the resize. Ultimately, I want the box larger once expanded anyway. @ded? @dsa?
-
@MulderMedia I’m just in the process of sending mine in for renewal, but mine’s expired now, so I can’t use it anyway.
-
@CamBowman And I’m not even trying to see what they are. You left this year’s in my Amazon cart!
-
@davidmartinez That’s why I like @iA‘s concept for Writer. Indicates approx. how long it will take to read text, instead of counting pages.
-
@aworkinglibrary @smcbride Seems workable. But what about works that don’t have logical divisions like chapters?
-
@smcbride Bible chapter/verse boundaries are arbitrary though. Byte length seems a more predictable/open measure of location. cc @kevinmarks
-
@kevinmarks Forgive my naivety, but isn’t Kindle’s location feature based on byte length? How is that closed?
-
@kevinmarks Then isn’t that what the Kindle already offers with edition-agnostic Locations?
-
The lack of page numbers is what’s wrong with the Kindle? Really? http://j.mp/h3pH2T

Arsenic – it’s what’s new for dinner.
-
@beep “Engines – removed” Keep looking.
-
@deadgraviti Oooh, interested in this one, since I’ve been hit in the corner of my eye while riding my scooter on the freeway.
-
Consider helping if you can, you might get a Cocktail book in return: “A friend in need” by @CamBowman – http://j.mp/dZVBOf
-
@kfury Brilliant. You should do a whole series of those.
-
@javan I hear you. We don’t expose every option in favor of keeping the UI as simple as possible.
-
@javan You can also just start typing the @ followed by a character or two, and #newtwitter will auto-complete from your following list.
-
@javan In that case, you can use the more actions dropdown (the gear icon) – there’s a Mention option there.
-
@javan If that user is following you, there will be a Message button on the gray actions bar. If no message button, you can’t DM them.
-
@elizabeth It’s gotta be hard sitting in that audience and holding yourself back.
-
@mdo Odd. I just got mine synced correctly across 3 macines via Dropbox. Finally usable to have everything updated everywhere.
-
@shaneglass Yes, there are still some issues with live updating and organization of the thread list…
-
@delbius I stopped monitoring your profile at 10:01pm the night before Thanksgiving. Must have missed it by 1 minute…
-
In case you missed my tweets last night – http://j.mp/i8ArYm & http://j.mp/fzqaur – If you have an iPhone/iPod, check out @MomentoApp.
-
@shaneglass Because they’re threaded now by person. (I’m assuming you’re asking about #newtwitter.)
-
See these photos of Rio’s drug war this past weekend: http://j.mp/hpOdmT then read this story: http://j.mp/fvzRhn
-
@TimHaines Look, see what you’ve done now? http://j.mp/i6Nb9M
-
@aegirthor Zing!
-
@TimHaines If that’s a serious question, I have no idea. If not serious, then, touché.
-
@mko @TimHaines And unless I go back & fav these tweets, or curate them somehow, this exact thread will nearly vanish within a few days.
-
@kaikemono That, to me, fails to meet the definition of accessible then. I want to ensure useful data is still accessible years from now.
-
@RichWestiStrat I know him pretty well. But I also know he limits the traveling & speaking he does now that he has a family. ;-)
-
@mko @TimHaines Unless any of those made it into the public library system, or our parents used acid-free paper, we won’t.
-
@MaticPelcl I’m not just asking about tweets though. There’s a larger issue of data preservation that intrigues me.
-
@TimHaines Amen, brother. So how are we, or our offspring, supposed to find the non-transient data many more years down the road?
-
@mko Most data (not just tweets) is transient. Problem is, you’re not always aware of what is and what isn’t at the time of creation.
-
@meangrape So re: being findable & accessible in >50 years, if the most permanent storage is clay or stone, no hope for all but most worthy?
-
@marshallk Exactly. And you see the larger implied question I’m asking about data preservation, even beyond Twitter?
-
@taylorbarriger See, you understand the larger question I’m asking – and it goes beyond Twitter too…
-
@uxpin I don’t have any more confidence in paper’s ability to endure, let alone, be easily findable or accessible years from now.
-
@martinpolley You see the bigger question I’m asking, right?
-
@meangrape But will the LoC still be relevant in 100 (more) years? Is that our only non-profit-driven hope for long-term data preservation?
-
Will I (or someone) be able to easily find and access this tweet 10 years from now? 50 years? 100?
-
@sippey Agreed. Ideally, an “open exchange of information” shouldn’t limit ease of access to just the past few days.
-
@jordanbrown @sacca Now if we could only guarantee this data would be around and accessible to us in 15-20 years…
