(15:38:35) Vanlal: we're having a discussion on how to filter content in a social network
(15:38:38) Vanlal: Striatic has too many friends
(15:38:55) LJ: i want to start a blog - a collaborative blog on marketing
(15:39:02) LJ: i'm looking for - uh - collaborators
(15:39:43) Vanlal: cool. Got a hook?
(15:39:56) LJ: not yet
(15:40:13) LJ: dude, twitter has what plurk and pownce and all others dont have - momentum
(15:41:11) Vanlal: you're missing the point.
(15:41:20) Vanlal: people move with their social nets
(15:41:36) Vanlal: Mine has decided that Twitter doesn't work for us
(15:41:43) LJ: hmm
(15:41:43) Vanlal: and we've all de-camped
(15:41:53) Vanlal: which is true.
(15:41:54) LJ: well you have a good online social web, so it works for you
(15:42:21) Vanlal: twitter is great for the A list bloggers who have millions hanging on their every utterance
(15:42:49) Vanlal: Theycan broadcast freely. With Plurk you're forced to listen to feedback.
(15:43:29) Vanlal: I've found that most bloggers aren't concerned about feedback, they just want to publish their **ORIGINAL** thought out there ASAP
(15:43:56) Vanlal: original being a huge overstatement
(15:44:11) LJ: yup
(15:44:23) LJ: see thats why i am not yet hot on microblogging
(15:44:33) LJ: i dont see a real use in day-to-day life yet
(15:44:41) LJ: and i dont find it pervasive
(15:45:32) LJ: my linkedin network is best positioned to make use of such a rapid-conversation tool, but they dont have it
(15:46:07) LJ: plus unless twitter/ plurk can work beautifully on my mobile device it is virtually useless
(15:48:18) Vanlal: what'd make sense is a service that marries itself into an existing social network.
(15:48:49) LJ: exactly
(15:49:01) LJ: which is why i said, LinkedIn is crying out for one
(15:49:10) LJ: it is the perfect network - useful
(15:49:40) Vanlal: Take your linkedin example with plurk for example. Integrate plurk and you can have asynchronous conversation with your linkedin network
(15:50:01) Vanlal: useful for you - corporate stud/whore :-) Not for everyone else
(15:50:22) LJ: lol
(15:50:44) LJ: well, most of these soc nets have open API's - wht stops plurk from integrating with facebook!
(15:51:59) Vanlal: That's the whole point. Sell that concept to FB & Plurk

Third time is the charm.

I finally got curtains I like (at half price even)!!  They are chocolate brown crinkle sheers.  I hung them with some cream color linen tab tops I already had behind them and they look very nice together.  I think some gold ribbon sewn along the top would make a nice trim.  I have $6.76 left out of the $50. I budgeted, so decorative ribbon trim it is, or maybe some little bells, that'd be cute.  I'd love that when the wind blows.

Here are the original green striped ones.  Nice, huh?

No OMG, this is such a blast from the past it deserves to be typed all the way out: Oh My Gawd.
