@erk just chuck the frozen coke on her.. it's sticky so you'll have the upper hand :p

My Internet connection went down, so I called Rob from 3eep and he said 'yeah, come here" so i jumped on my bike and rode through Sydney.

lol @ funky

Oh Micky! You are dedicated to our cause

pfft you shoulda pulled out your rollerblades

Funky - I happen to know from experience that coke doesn't stain one's clothes, so go right ahead!

yup

does your driveway need cleaning, dek? i've heard coke is good for that

We could always try.... lol!

@silkcharm i got @mick's rollerblades

(I'm almost tempted to post some ads in here. You know, like in the movies?)

@dek it doesn't, but you'll feel sticky enough!! and you poured coke over yourself.. umm

Noooo!! I didn't!!

hehe - trying to get the ustream working ... hang on!

maybe i'll watch the "facebook for dummies" dvd while i wait lol

NOTE: Slight delay - working out uSTream.........

Erk - You're kidding right?!?!

no, we are not kidding

Hello

<< facebook newbie. still trying to work out the "buying friends as pets" app, dek

Down with aps!

Heya jj!

hey everyone!  did someone say they're having probs with ustream?? i dont believe it 

i'm worth $702, dek. lol @ dizzy

@erk haha.. really? well, the more you buy, and more ppl buy off you, the more money you get

and more people buy and you "sell" you, the more you go up in value and get money too
 

o.O Cam is swearing! ok that's not surprising but he's swearing at Macs!

meh - have fun peeps, lunchtime for me now

Funky - And why exactly are you guys buying and selling each other??

why couldnt FB explain it like that, funky?

There's something disturbing abt that ap

lol @ silkcharm

@dek coz buy and selling in real life is illegal

i have 7 pets

@skilcharm I'm glad I can't hear the tech details. Damaging to my ears - he swears like a muthafucka.

@erk coz.. im better at explaining it

@aDB sorry, UncaDunc is apparently good for something

I'm delicate

I'm starving, anyone got any popcorn.

jj - should be some up front around the Erk

http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/01/yahoo-yhoo-pass-the-prozac-and-jack-daniels-please.html

we can hear you bronwen

kick it, cam

So silly

i'm worth $702

yup, it is...

Cam, hahah.. nice one

are you sure it wasnt spam, cam?

I want one...

yep i disagree cam

Not all about e-books, but I would still like a Kindle

awww.. but I love my books.

personally, i'd rather not have a kindle coz it'll be just another gadget to carry.. i'd rather have all in one.. phone+ebook+camera+music+etc.. i think future will go there...

you can't cuddle an ebook in bed properly, its just not the same.

i reckon iPhone will be taking it over

I don't want all in one.... You'd have to answer calls while reading

hehe, Cam is talking about what i wrote up

that's a good call cam, yeah   hahaha@dek true that

although reference material in ebook form is good.

All in one things are kinda overrated me thinks

velvet, yeah, I agree

something happened. cam's audio just got better

<< hates his battery life on his N95

@dekrazee you don't like convergence?

@erk i agree

Depends on the type of convergence SilkCharm. Not just convergence for convergence sake

it would be nice for someone to get it right, but despite the plethora of ebooks i have, i invariably print them out when i need to seriously read them.  on screen, except for reference, just doesnt seem to be my thing

personally, i think rather than just working on getting more and more space into small hard-drives on phones, they should also look into increasing the battery life

well, HTC is the competition against iPhone
 

@funkycoda _definitely_

the only way i can get the same battery life out of my N95 compared to the iPhone is to have my N95 off for 2.5 days

so will HTC bring something out better than iPhone?

too right funky

I hope, HTC does something good. Kaiser is good.

But I like looking at my bookshelf! It's so pretty

@mick i agree

http://www.coolsmartphone.com/article727.html - Kaiser

i use audiobooks to do what cam is describing. guess it comes down to whether we're visual/audio/kinesth at heart?

dizzy - I think it's more about how we use/access information

something from HTC compatible with android would be unreal, id snap it up in a second

i want my backyard to be astroturfed. any volunteers?

@dek yeah that's a fair call

obfuscate

http://silkcharm.blogspot.com/

@erk you do mine, and i'll think about doing yours

AFR has losted the pot

http://silkcharm.blogspot.com/2008/02/australian-financial-review-and-archaic.html

Why not letting people link is dumb;

@warlach works for AFR no?

 

Have you seen a Google link into an AFR story?
 The AFR are still trying to make $ from the news online. Doesn't work. I don't mind registering, but I object to fucking around with me.

 

Yeah

You can't even grade the AFR.com site? so crap.
