I'm not sure how I'm weighing in on the same discussion, but I'm following it closely. I do agree that there should be more noise about IM and other Twitter/FB/MySpace status updates.

Good read. How long have you been microblogging? I've been blogging for more than 4 years, but my microblogging anniversary is in July.

My algorithm is a little different. I analyze every follow request with what kind of information is this person going to provide--does it add to my personal network, interesting commentary on sports or what is happening in the music, snowboard and mountain scene -- if so I will follow them.

This was absolutely fun to put together. Joe Hruska our CEO did all of the heavy lifting in terms of metrics, but it's great to have data and be able to share it with the GeekWire community. Our RescueTimer's are the juice that makes this engine go - thanks for reading.

We got the nicest love letter from Simplifilm - those guys are the best! It's been a long time since someone has really impressed me in terms of winning RescueTime's business. Chris and his team at Simplifilm took the time to understand our products and how best to evangelize what we do. We look forward to this project and our future partnership!

Sincerely,

Re: Starbucks roasted over Square confusion, glitches

jasongrimes — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 17:58:07 -0000

As much as I love to bash @Starbucks any new system especially with the number of employees and customers are going to experience problems. From my experience using Square at other local coffee shops is the system is simple and yes it's a far departure for how we are used to pay. So like many major changes there are gonna be cynics, but this disruption is necessary. Just take a look at the feature set (esp for local shops) to use Square to accept payments, track drinks (instead of a punch card) and sending receipts via email. I promise you, things will get better. You will still be able to purchase your double mocha frappuccino with extra whip cream - it must may take 30 seconds longer until the process is executed flawlessly. So take a deep breath and let's talk about other "more broken" tech issues. BTW - I love me some @geekwire and I'm not surprised that FastCompany posted a negative story - are you?
