  • 07:07am: After a couple of weeks off yoga I was like the Tin Man.
  • 09:41am: Apple TV: It doesn't actually show or record TV? It's a thing you buy so you can rent videos? Or am I missing something? #highcourtjudge
  • 09:51am: The world's biggest, and most useless, pigeonholes: "Rock", "Pop", "Alternative", etc.
  • 10:01am: Really, Ping? You could know more about my listening habits than anyone but Last.fm and you just recommend me artists who paid to be there?
  • 12:11pm: @danhon My boss is awful. I may have to sleep with him to get some time off. Right, I have to go and buy his lunch now!
  • 12:54pm: @megp You should draw a vicious cartoon satirising such profligacy.
  • 01:31pm: In more positive Apple news, the Multiple Speakers window in iTunes 10 is better, with individual volume controls per output.
  • 03:00pm: @smagdali It's exactly the same list of artists for everyone. Which makes no sense whatsoever, but don't take it personally. Very odd.
  • 03:03pm: Ping's a social music recommendation network without the recommendations. Or knowledge of music. Or much sociability.
  • 05:00pm: @moleitau I've always been surprised that Twitter clients don't make it more/at all obvious which tweets are private.
  • 05:03pm: Also Ping, "Matt wants to follow you on iTunes Ping" is not very useful. I know more Matts than you know genres. But that's not hard.
  • 09:26pm: What a lovely evening. And a lovely day ahead tomorrow, especially if I get up early enough...
  • 09:28pm: @tobybarnes Thanks.Yes, I have a local database that stores my tweets and caches photo info.
  • 10:00pm: @tobybarnes Unfortunately it's a complicated mix of Movable Type and custom PHP. I am thinking about how to abstract it, somehow...
