Using Windows 7 beta? Me, too. Love it - but there's a security flaw. I've blogged the easy fix: http://bit.ly/meXg
RT @DrPhil: "DrPhil Having trouble coping with life's demands? Dr. Phil's test can help evaluate your stress..." Social media fail. Block.
@LastChance No kidding. SMS messages cost $1500/MB. http://bit.ly/2USkHe - talk about windfall profits!
@stevedrees See Butter's Law: the cost of transmitting a bit over an optical network decreases by half every nine months. Not free. Cheap.
@primeluva I most emphatically did not say that! I merely commented on the unspoken fear in the community. It's the elephant in the room.
@FinanceBuzz Free market doesn't work when you don't have competition. Bandwidth is virutally free. US, Canada, and Aus prices are inflated.
@ryatziv That's not what Pogue reported. Two Carbonite employees posted reviews in 2006. The co. prohibited it shortly after. That's it.
Twitter infrastructure is trembling. My follow count hasn't changed in 7 days. Just got a fail whale. And some of my tweets are going astray
@doug_hilton Atlas Shrugged! Of course - that would be 50 hours. It's 1000 pages of blather. I ♥ Dagny Taggart.
@jgderuvo Actually http://twitstuffstore.com is selling licensed merch The designer, Lori LeBeau-Walsh does our album art. She's great!
@bithaze I use Fastmail actually. Love it. Looking for the best Windows IMAP client to use with it.
@Corpsman_Com All my mics wear Heil... or they wear nothing at all. http://heilsound.com
@chrissnipes If you're an Audible member, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is free at http://audible.com/twithabits Enjoy!
@mycenaen Congratulations on your first Tweet! Welcome to the real-time web. Please keep your hands and feet inside the feed at all times.
@CohenJordan You're assuming Windows 7 being held back for technical reasons. What if it's just for marketing reasons?
@WardLabs Some leads come in the door. But for the most part we rely on Podtrac for finding sponsors for TWiT. They've been fantastic.
@gryffyn What IS the best Windows email client? Outlook is overkill. Live Mail is a bit quirky. Is there anyone else left in the space?
@WardLabs See an earlier tweet from me re: the Carbonite issue
@chrispt Not yet, but I think I'm going to use Pidgin for now. Simple interface. IRC support. I've got Twhirl for Twitter.
@PodcastJunky Yup. Fee based works only for a few. TWiT is ad & donation suported and thriving. You do need aggregation for ads to work, tho
