Currently, there's no FriendFeed iPhone app (sadly). I've been dying for one for weeks now.

Facebook's previous interface was tolerable. This new interface is sacrificing usability and intuitiveness in favor of minimalism (sorta). I don't care for it.

Very nice work :)

Re: I Have a Ton of Beta Invitations - Want One?

Wow, this is awesome, giving away invites like crazy over here!

There are still plenty of invites left (though BrightKite and Dropbox are getting pretty lean, only a couple left for each, I think).

Keep the requests coming and I'll do my best to get you all hooked up.

Need you to send me an email at the address above so I know where to send it!

Re: How I Use Evernote

Brett Kelly — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 09:33:39 -0000

Tags, tags, tags! I tried using multiple notebooks, but found that it added more of a "processing" step. This way, I add something (and tag it if I have time) and it's done. I can go back later and clean up what's in there, re-tag as necessary (or delete if it was only a temporary item). If I ever get involved in a project with a ton of research, I might consider a separate notebook, but tags and saved searches get the job done just fine for me.

You should use whatever you please. I'm just saying that I use (and really like) Evernote. If a plastic bucket full of paper, pictures and scribbled-on cocktail napkins works for you, then go forth, my bucket-toting friend.

Actually, it appears that this feature is available under windows, but not under OSX.

It was slowed down to half speed - genius if you ask me.

Re: How a Twitter Spammer Might Go About Getting Lots of Followers

Brett Kelly — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 19:30:16 -0000

But if the follow/unfollow sequence happened quickly enough (which I imagine
it does, probably within a couple of minutes), then qwitter probably
wouldn't pick up on it. I say that not really knowing how qwitter works
under the hood, but I know the API doesn't expose any notification
functionality in the event of a new follow/unfollow.

Thats alright, mobile rendering was never a concern.

Re: 1FPS - Fun fact: Path Finder is developed by one guy

Path Finder is freaking wonderful. If you spend any amount of time with the stock Finder, you know what a steaming heap it is. This makes file management (and a pantload of other things) a breeze. Do eeet!

You should really try Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale (if you haven't already). It's the one winter ale that I literally spend the rest of the year waiting for. It's fantastic.

Also, I've never been a huge fan of the Anchor winter offerings, either. Generally, I find them to be malt-heavy and overly sweet (I'm a complete hop-head, by the way!)

Re: More on How I use Evernote

Brett Kelly — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 19:48:24 -0000

I will freely admit that I add things to Evernote a lot more often than I retrieve them. Mostly, I approach it like this: I've got 500mb of storage per month, so I'm going to add everything I could ever possibly need (or want) again.

Hardly the kind of attitude befitting a productivity nerd, but that's my "workflow", as it were :)

When it does come time to find something, I trust the search. It's never let me down so far.

I know, but it was the only decent version I could find on YouTube.

Re: My Untested Task Management System

Brett Kelly — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 13:12:18 -0000

Well, the Dropbox choice was based primarily on the fact that Evernote's
iphone application is pretty much worthless for anything other than taking
notes (searching/organizing are both prohibitively slow). If that weren't
the case, then you'd be right :)

Well, I'm usually a little unsure of The One True Way when it comes to
technology. There are almost always multiple ways to solve a problem, and
HTML tables make certain things very, very easy. I'll definitely use them
in the right situation, but I won't use them just to spite the CSS purists
:)

I'm going to install MacVim tonight. Thanks for the tip!

Hopefully it works with all of my plugins and whatnot - I imagine it will, though

Reminds me of the lyric from "In My Eyes" by Minor Threat:

You tell me that I make no difference
At least I'm fuckin' trying
What the fuck have you done?
