Half a minute ago: Justin Bieber and I went to First Fridays where we noshed on taquitos and danced to “Kids” by MGMT.

5 hours ago: Justin Bieber and I went to the roller rink and skated to Lil’ Romeo’s cover of “Parents Just Don’t Understand.” It’s SUCH a classic.

Things and Stuff: Facebook/Twitter vs. Old Fashioned Pen-and-Paper -
…—
Back in the 1980’s my grandmother and I exchanged letters every week or so for at least a couple, maybe three or four years. In her letters to me - and I’ve saved every one - she talked about the weather, and doings at the Masonic lodge, made snipes about Ronald and Nancy…

Vanity Fair on Twitter fame: Twembarrassing -
Caroline McCarthy at C|Net
…one of the silliest, most superficial, and most wildly out of touch articles about Twitter that I’ve ever read.
Ha, ha, I will defend this article. Of course VF is going to do something redonk like dress all those women up for the pic, and hype the phenomenon with fakey slang and the like. That’s what they do. But VG is not dumb, and I’m sure she’s skeeved out by all her media colleagues who have gone cuckoo for cocoa-puffs over Twitter. The tone-deafness is high-level meta mockery. Is “twilebrity” any more embarrassing than “twestival,” “tweeps” and all the twee jargon that gets used for real, and which is so off-putting to outsiders? Pet rock is too harsh, I agree. Twitter is both more useful and longer lasting than a pet rock. But you were right the first time. CB radio might be a better example, and just as Friendster paved the way for profile-based social networks, I’m sure Twitter will set the template for other forms of update dissemination that may be less contrived, OCD and cult-like. But when someone twenty years from now looks up a New York Times article from 2009 and sees the word “tweeted” without quotes or qualifiers, they are going to ask themselves what the fuck. 10-4.
Drunk Drivers in Texas to Be Named on Twitter -
Get a DWI in Montgomery County Texas, your name will be posted to the county’s Twitter account. It’s all about publicly shaming folks as a deterrent to drunk driving. I imagine it will be contested as cruel and unusual at some point.
