DISQUS

swanky.

Leolo, that's another one (foreign film) that stirs some deep part of me to have watched it about 20 times in my early 20s. That and Orlando, an awesome story whose main character spans centuries...

I must have had an inate sense of good films when I was much younger because I absolutely loved Citizen Kane as a kid. Somewhere in college I learned it is actually considered one of the greatest. I'm not sure why... maybe it's because it's the story of a misunderstood man determined and driven to be successful despite the prevailing winds, extremely private despite focusing the great lens on other people's lives, and seemingly driven by memories of the mundane. An excellent movie for those building their own xanadua as a monumental "fuck you" to inconspicuous consumption and common sense.

Awesome post, but did you mean to title this "40 of the Best Corporate Brands on Twitter and the People Behind Them?" Some people themselves are brands on Twitter and have nothing to do with corporate America figuring out a new pipe to push their message.

Sometimes Twitter can give you a good picture of what catches fire... but it's often started with something already written on a blog or other media.

LOL, Nate, I'm loving this theme I'm seeing in your photos. Everyone has a pensive pirate look about them... it's almost like the scowl from photos of agrarian ancestors 100 years ago, angered perhaps that they didn't Tivo this week's Lost.

Talk about social media as a history tool, social media is helping me correct the historic record on behalf of my distant relative Sir Thomas Grantham. History records that the leader of America's first rebellion, Nathaniel Bacon, died of fever.

Sir Thomas Grantham wrote in his notes on Bacon's Rebellion that Bacon actually died of the Lousy Evil - a pubic lice infestation - in 1676. Social Media helped me make sure his version of the facts is known and shared. I linked the story to my name here.

Dave, you ought to set one up that says "Wheeeee, Twitter!" everytime someone says twitter ;)

A little help from Apple, just in time :)

Congrats, and look forward to seeing what you can do over yonders. ;)

heh, I was just jabbin' ya ;)

No love for the twitter hater who let you know, I guess? ;) I can now see your comments in IE. Thanks, Nico!

You are way too kind to people who steal your money. If you plan on calling them back, just let them know it's a courteousy call telling them you are initiating a charge back with your credit card company. These are kisses of death for a company that values it's ability to use merchant accounts through credit card companies.

Then, call your credit card company and tell them you did not authorize the charge and want them to process a charge back. End of story and heartache.

I vote you talk about twitter, since I need a good edumacting.

Do you mean Google selected beta testers who are the only ones who can see it, or the feature only shows up on certain search strings?

Meanwhile, this is pretty old and you probably know about it, but have you tried Googlism?

Weird. I just tried it and did not see it. I searched "Christian Grantham." Did I do something wrong?

I think I spent more time jiggling that jello than I did reading most Christmas posts. Love it! ;)
