Thinking utterz is kind of weird, finally looking at it, made a test, not sure what to think about it yet. #
Also watching the vid about the AmazonKindle thanks to @LenEdgerly. Wonder if I will ever pay $400 for a toy. #
AmazonKindle e-reader video: http://tinyurl.com/38vvrh #
@MikeESSDACK My 1st thought – cheap college txtbooks! 2nd – No way, they’ll still charge too much. 😉 #
Ok, the utterz test worked! Chain reaction: phone call -> utterz site -> blog -> tweet -> god what next. #

@skydaddy Dunno, everything rezzing slow, got booted, can’t relog, av won’t rez, just plain wonky #
Well geez, the only Dell laptop that doesn’t have a graphics card on the SL no-no list is the $3-4k one. #
And for some reason the Dell website is timing out #
And why on earth would the Dell island in SL not have a simple kiosk for SL optimized Dell machines?????? #
Fleep is grumpy. And to all you mac people, I say 😛 😉 #
@LPT Er uh, sorry, I don’t mean to be bashing your stuff, just not having good experience atm. #
@LPT the XPS systems are outside the budget range. 🙁 #
Demoing SL on the road, portability is almost as important as performance. Just not seeing good options. #
@LPT Definitely think SL optimized desktop and laptop package on both website and island would be v.nice #
@mrtopf Been that way the past few days, no one seems to know #

Australian Digital Futures Summit is back: http://www.r2.co.nz/20071128/ds-128.asx #
Current speaker says by 2010, the US will run out of power to fuel our datacenters, energy is bigger threat than bandwidth to digital st … #
Ah he’s a Dell VP #
Storage is one of the fastest growing products on earth #
This is a good talk, recommend it! #
How do you generate a workface even capable of using the infrastructure we’re building effectively? Good question. #
@Frans LAUGH! I will hold you to that! #
@codebastard He may be talking about Dell data centers specifically with their current infrastructure, not sure. #
Yay, passion for education from the Dell guy! I’m with him on that. #
Really excellent point, not just a technology problem, or a bandwidth problem, it is as much an education and culture problem. #
@Robbie_Kiama That was the best presentation I’ve seen so far, glad you enjoyed it. 🙂 #
I have the hiccups and its driving me nuts. #
@newmediajim Reactee? http://reactee.com/ #
@rubaiyat: Hah! That sounds familiar. 😉 #
SL and education friends, please welcome my good friend @slfarley!! Glad to see you here! 🙂 #

Indulged in a large pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks, which I never do, and now so hopped up I can’t sit still. #
@Olando7 I cannot for the life of me remember which uni did that, it’s driving me nuts! #

@richpalmer We built one of those on our campus island, replica of a real life one near Cincy. 🙂 #

Kitties got into it with a raccoon, I think. Kitties are worse for wear, but can’t tell just how bad. #
Kitties cleaned up and resting in pile of towels and blankets, nothing too serious as far as I can tell. #
Anyone have a link to Torley tutorials that can be streamed into SL? All I can find are YouTube videos. #
@iAlja Thanks! Didn’t know that! YouTube Mobile vids play in SL http://tinyurl.com/yu73q7 #
@nnoakes Better late than never, just saw your dm – thanks!! 🙂 #

Was looking for scripted object to use in our post office to show online status, drop notecards etc for our faculty #
all I can find that sort of fits the bill are "Escort Boards" for all your slave needs. How depressing. #
@Fumon Hey stranger, welcome back. Only just at midterms?! #
And crud just when I thought I had avatars added to the spreadsheet, I see an additional 164 users in the estate menu. CRUD. #
@RavenPhoenix Looked through both Onrez and slx, need pic + mailbox + online status + IM + TP #
@RavenPhoenix Think I’ll just have to build it myself. #
Thanks @roadup will check it out. 🙂 #
Wishing I could program my way out of a paper bag. #
@cc_chapman British(?) Canadian smarties are like M&Ms. 🙂 #
