Re: Places I’ve been

now that I think about it, I have been to Mexico so I have indeed been to another country - but not one that requires a passport. I am hoping to change that track record starting spring 2010 - just need the airfare to become less shocking for a family of 5!

Riclov, thank you! And great book intro, I hadn't heard of Tacky - completely cute penguin books!

Re: How do you adjust to the change?

jgoode — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 17:25:19 -0000

maybe missing things we like is supposed to be a motivator to make new things we like? i've moved a lot too... it's only been since I was married that i've stayed in one place for more than a few years at a time - guess i like where i am... could also be i'm tired of unpacking lol

Thank you Udi - more so than my liking things to stay the same, I like to be in control of what and how things do change. It's a hard and bewildering experience when we realize there isn't anything we can do except roll with it.

Time travel... even then, things change because we'd go back to a place we'd been before with the knowledge we have now so our perspective has changed and our list of life experiences has grown. Maybe this is why I'm more a fan of the Stargate concept than the specific time travel concept - exploring regardless of time sounds pretty cool to me.

Agreed - it doesn't have to be in front of a group - the skills translate to the phone, videos, podcasts, meeting people, etc.

Why, because of the spam?

Not to brag, but I introduced Wil to Pipe's usefulness :)

I'm having a lot of fun with Y! Pipes right now, and got some great ideas from Wil Reynold's session (when does he not drop gems on us). I think I got Jen Goode into using pipes too.

I pegged you as the favorite in the toilet race - good thing I didn't put any money on it.

I use it as a Twitter client as well as an aggregator. So very powerful!

I love the blogger lounge to just get away and take a break, maybe some Wii.

thanks, Shawn.

Yeah, agreed there. I do think we'll see more folks blogging as things such as state tax laws continue to change the affiliate landscape, though.

Nope, spamming your friends is still spam.

Consider this one permanent, tho. I'm creating a "Kukral Spam Filter" in
Yahoo Pipes that will take out your sponsored tweets that I'll post up here
for all of your affected friends.

yeah, that's shady.

but come on... it's still fun for quick inquiries.

Great points.

Re: Jim Kukral is a Spammer

samharrelson — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 19:50:18 -0000

It is a great theme.

But no, I don't feel like I have to explain why (I think) SponsoredTweets is spam. That horse has been beaten way too many times by me and others. Ted and Jim are both great guys, but I have fundamental differences with them over how to use this stuff we're still developing.

Re: Jim Kukral is a Spammer

1115media — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 19:46:43 -0000

My point is it appears you don't like it because you don't like it. And I'm totally using this theme for my new blog.

Re: Jim Kukral is a Spammer

samharrelson — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 19:40:32 -0000

And your point is...?

Re: Jim Kukral is a Spammer

samharrelson — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 18:34:26 -0000

No doubt there. Jim is the only decent person from Ohio that I know. Except for when he spams me.

I tried it with affiliatesummit.com and it said 150,000 visits a day. That's just slightly off. :)

Re: See, WolframAlpha Can Be Useful

samharrelson — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 00:21:53 -0000

Yeah, that's a little janky but the overall stats for other networks and even offer links are pretty interesting. Try plugging in Linkshare, Clickbooth, etc.

Fun stuff.
