The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

Unspeakably jealous of @blaine and @mattb and their ski trip.

Thinking that although @elliotjaystocksakes rocks and makes a good point, I know better designers and better developers just not all in one

@briansuda That has been my argument.. but it's an interesting discussion and one that eventually an insurance company might get involved in

Noting with dented pride that "...he's fatter than you." is similar, but certainly not equivalent to "...you're thinner than him."

@tomcoates Nope, not weird That's the same for everyone. There was a vote on how we could avoid April showers and April fools in 2010.

Dear LazyWeb, can I get a feed of a specific Gallery from flickr? Their APIs don't appear to allow that yet.

Thanks @victoriachan! I have the opposite problem - too many nebulous ideas for fun things I want to build with nodejs, but too little time.

Says @san1t1, "gimme node.js and writing servers is fun again". I'm with you there, except this is the first time it's been such fun for me

@davidjames @nicferrier That's why a good Javascript lint tool is such a handy piece of a development workflow. Syntax gaffs begone!

People looking at the same list on www.teafr.com will see the lotteries play out in real time. Satisfying to kick it off from a mobile.

Now hosting my first nodejs app properly on Linode. Teafr isn't going to save the world, but a nice cuppa never hurt. (http://is.gd/8oxGr)

Remembering why I don't often run. Lots to do before my upcoming 10k (which I only agreed to because of the promise of a roast dinner!)

Google.co.uk seems to be down in our office. I'm sure that there are other search engines... umm... reverting to AskJeeves.

MongoDB is fast and it speaks my language. I'll be trying it out as the database for my next web app project for sure. #nosql #javascript

Wishing that sessions at #fosdem had a few minutes gap between them so that speakers could take questions without such disruption.

Amazed at the scale, and FOSS tools made by Facebook. @daveman692: "we log about 25TB a day.. and serve 1.2 million photos a second" #fosdem

Great stuff from @wimleers at #fosdem. Not only some solid looking Drupal optimisations, but also an excellent, slick presentation.

@jordiv @kchodorow's MongoDB talk at #fosdem was videoed. I don't think that there is a stream, but suspect it will be shared.

Yesterday the HTML5 session seemed like the hottest ticket at #fosdem. Today the NoSQL track is rammed. Squeezing into the MongoDB talk.
