RT @howardlindzon What makes me happiest every day is that people don’t yet GET twitter. Do you know how lucky YOU are that you DO $$

Busy day today. First in Objective-C (iPhone) along with some Grails work, then Rails for the rest of the day.

Big fan of haproxy. Really the way to go when you have nginx and a lot of mongrels (or a little, I suppose).

I’m not digging the new FriendFeed design. I hope they iterate on that quickly. I do like the Twitter-ness though.

I’ve recently gotten back into Pandora after just going through tracks in itunes. It’s a constantly swinging pendulum between the two.

Already tired of April 1. Reddit: you’re not funny.

Time to start looking for new chairs for the office. These have been here for a long time and are falling apart.

I always assumed engine yard could be redundant across data centers. Their marketing pitch made it seem that way.

It’s hard maintaining a twitter app when the twitter api is so unreliable. Yesterday was awful: it kept going up and down.

Looks like Apple just solved all major grips with the iPhone (and then some). MMS, turn-by-turn directions (soon), copy+paste, CalDav …

The iPhone doesn’t do well at forwarding large attachments, even over 3g.

My rate of receiving cold calls seems to be increasing. I wonder if this stems from desperation due to the economy.

RT @Pogue New BlackBerry app store open for business. But the $3 minimum price? Stupid. http://bit.ly/YVbTH
