• Don't worry, I won't be here all night. #
• Is the "top kill" put in with a "top gun" or does it act more like a top hat? #
• Just rocked my Facebook settings. Still don't see the new privacy roll-out on mine though. #

• Wow, I wonder why I put off git for so long. The beginners part was quick. #
• Tonight's project. Git. Specifically, GitHub. #

• Life in a nutshell from a 6 year old on a 3 mile walk – "We were all the way over there. Now we are right here." #
• Of course, the internet brings the "early morning singing song" straight to my ears on demand. Time for breakfast. #
• Gliddy gloop gloopy Nibby nobby nooby La la la lo lo Sabba sibby sabba Nooby abba dabba Le le lo lo dooby ooby walla dooby abba dabba. #
• 6:45am – can't get Good Morning Starshine out of my head. I know the earth says hello, but where did that come from? #
• Things are coming along nicely. #

• Funny. If you retweet a tweet that has "tip @techmeme" in it, you get a DM that says they already got the tip. Hrm, obvious? #
• Good reminder for those working with OAuth or any other authentication stuff – when in doubt, check your clock. http://bit.ly/aVei9t #
• Kind of wish email clients had an option for attach and delete sometimes. Once I attach it, I have a copy anyway. Who needs the original? #
• Seesmic for iPhone. I like the compose window better than Twitter's. Like the retweets tab, but not the way the timeline shows retweets. #
• And that map link came from @mcwetboy's The Map Room – http://bit.ly/czIcyP – also fascinating, which @marshallk mentioned a bit ago. #
• "Ten of the greatest: Maps that changed the world" – http://bit.ly/9wa5E7 – Fascinating! #
• Powerful photo from Boston's Big Picture. A red shirt protester at the destruction of the "Zen World" shopping center. http://bit.ly/caff1R #
• From the "in case you were wondering" department — Wine corks do (or can) come straight from a tree. A Cork Oak. http://bit.ly/9IB8Qi #

• Tweetie is definitely now Twitter. Wonder if this will still work with WordPress. #
• Volume on the Google I/O stream seems to have gotten better. Woo. #
• Volume on the Google I/O stream seems low. Meh. #
• I didn't ask to undo anything. Does the iPod even have an undo? http://yfrog.com/15br3dsj #

• And now, thanks to Johnny Rotten and NPR, I'm hovering amongst Planxty albums. Punk + NPR = Traditional Irish? http://amzn.to/c1dXvq #
• Congrats, @al3x, on the new job. And a thus inspired post from me – "On Banks" – http://bit.ly/df3d4g #
• Listening to John Lydon on NPR's All Songs Considered. One thing is certain – his personality will always be undeniably Johnny Rotten. #
• Just noticed that Google took away the easy definition lookups when they changed the search page. Unhappy. "define:word" still works though. #
• The pistachios. Can't. Stop. Eating. Them. #
• Totally stoked about this Buke and Gass album I just got. Such a powerful sound for two people. http://bit.ly/c4wgLM #
