Twitter

Twitter has really stepped their game up marketing ad buys to small businesses.  I get emails from them nearly week, and most of them are well-executed pitches, some with animated use cases.  It will be interesting to see if now public, Twitter can compete for real in ad dollars with Google and Facebook.

Now that anything you might want to learn is now easily searchable and often documented by instructions (including video), I feel that we have reached the state of Keanu Reeves in The Matrix where in minutes he approximates the kung fu martial arts.

This GOP debt ceiling/default debacle makes me think of a man beholding the sight of a man (esp. Speaker Boehner) beholding the sight of his own anus.

The way that Tupac says "ring, ring, ring" on this song makes me think it subconsciously influenced Sleigh Bells.
