@burningbird I would take the claims in http://tinyurl.com/cv3qtp with several hundred grains of salt; I think they published it a day early

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 26, 2009 at 12:23:05 PM

@obiwankimberly I hear you. I'm tempted, but not until I pay off my trip to Texas.... :-)

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 26, 2009 at 11:53:23 AM

@obiwankimberly did you order the Girard fonts?

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 25, 2009 at 8:24:39 PM

@dylanw you need a copy of WhatTheFont for your iPhone. :-)

@polaroidgirl heartbreaking indeed. As a native of Detroit, doubly so here. Thanks for sharing.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 24, 2009 at 3:09:20 PM

@JerseyGrrrl of course not. I use Twitter a lot more than you do. :-)

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 24, 2009 at 2:10:18 PM

@dylanw never paid much attention to the difference. I just know I like NC better.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 23, 2009 at 11:57:29 AM

@hansv me too. I kept wanted to stop for a beer when my wife and I were out yesterday, something we basically never do.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 23, 2009 at 11:21:40 AM

@iheni in other words, so far, so good, but with advanced browsers like Mobile Safari and Android Browser, there's potential for problems.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 23, 2009 at 11:17:45 AM

@iheni mostly a cross-over, especially for simpler sites. If, OTOH, you're building just for one phone using prop. features, can be a clash

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 22, 2009 at 5:48:10 PM

is back home. Finished the Kodachrome in the Voigtländer and a roll of Plus-X, a roll of 669 in the Pola 250, and a roll of FP4+ in DianaF+

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 21, 2009 at 7:09:50 PM

finds naps a particularly successful and useful work avoidance strategy. Worked well for the last 2.5 hours for me, anyway

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 21, 2009 at 7:09:09 PM

@danrubin ouch. 2 stops is a lot of overexposure for slide film. You could have it cross-processed and be one of the Kewl L0mo kidz

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 21, 2009 at 3:54:34 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 21, 2009 at 2:28:57 PM

@dylanw thanks. There's a Polaroid format that looks kind of like this, the Spectra. Not quite the same, but similar. Wasn't deliberate, tho

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 14, 2009 at 1:58:02 PM

notes that the 4:30 showing of Objectified by Helvetica's director Gary Hustwit is open to Interactive attendees. Anyone else interested?

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 3:51:36 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 3:06:23 PM

loves that there's a Penn State pennant hanging above the bar at Hut's. Somehow I forgot that from last time.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 2:31:12 PM

is bumming about laid off co-workers, but at least my own department was spared. For now, anyway. Fingers crossed.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 12:59:06 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 7:08:10 AM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 7:00:30 AM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 12, 2009 at 5:30:01 AM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 11, 2009 at 11:12:01 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 11, 2009 at 10:14:06 PM

@sniffles ouch. That doesn't sound good. Call the front desk.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 11, 2009 at 10:13:16 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 11, 2009 at 8:11:35 PM

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 11, 2009 at 4:56:36 PM

Like @steveganz, I'll be using Brightkite during SXSW. Should be interesting to see if it catches on enough to make it useful this year.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 8, 2009 at 11:38:08 AM

got a lot accomplished this morning: fixed the headlamp on the Camry, did the recycling, burnt a CD to fix the in-laws AOL; feels good.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 6, 2009 at 9:38:22 PM

@surlyshirley how can anything that measures the number of monster truck rallies in a city be anything but good? Note that NYC is dead last.

Ralph Brandi 🇺🇦-🇺🇸 @thereisnocat March 6, 2009 at 6:43:05 AM

@andrea I had to look up karass and granfalloon. Sounds about right to me. Too many people I don't remember or don't care about on FB.
