IT Conversations with myself: is danah boyd cool or what?

Anto: What do you think of danah boyd? Don’t you think she’s supercool?

nella: [continuing to read Scoble's post about investing in blogging] Yeah, she is OK.

Anto: OK? Just OK? Have you read her post on superpublics?

nella: [click-hopping to Jeneane Sessum's post on the history of "small is the new big"] Yes, I did. It’s interesting.

Anto: She has all these great ideas on social networks online.

nella: [Now reading Hugh McLeod] She’s writing her dissertation on social networks; it would be surprising if she didn’t have interesting things to say.

Anto: My dissertation was not that interesting.

nella: [scanning Shelly's posts on The bbgun] Here we go again.

Anto: No, really.

nella: [makes faces while reading Stowe Boyd's /Blip of the week; wonders if Stowe and danah are related]

Anto: Stop it!

nella: You stop it.

Silence. Click. Click. Click.

Anto: OK, but she has more interesting things to say that many A-listers.

nella: [reading BoingBoing making fun of the Wall Street Journal] I would agree with that.

Silence, except for furious typing.

Anto: Are you angry at me?

nella: No, I’m not.

Anto: Are we OK then?

nella: We are golden.

Silence. Typing. More typing. Silence.

Anto: I love you.

nella: I love you, too. Now shut up. Trying to be a serious blogger here.

I hate opinionated Search Engines

What do you mean "too short"? And who are you to insult my keywords?

(Can you guess which site features this rude search engine?)

What’s your manager’s expiration date?

I took this picture at my local Wegmans. It was by a door labelled "Employees Only."

Unbelievable!

If you are into nerdy Web 2.0 humor, you’re gonna have a good time today:

Are you thinking what I am thinking? Aren’t these April Fool’s jokes powerful expression of unconscious desires? Mhhh…. not sure about the Dave Winer thing, though…

Corporate geese

This evening, leaving the office way too late, I saw a bunch of corporate Canadian geese in a neat business casual outfit (it must have been “bring your chicks to work” day). I have pictures to prove that it was not just workaholic delirium.
