    @Conchie Birdie: Well dressing up like Kevin Rose is easy by comparison, all you need is a backwards hat, some headphones and a striped t-shirt. To dress up a Zuckerberg you'd have to buy a brown zip-up hoodie and smash you face against a wall for a solid hour. #thisthinglookslikethatthing

    @Conchie Birdie: I'm a white guy with no fashion sense- apparently I look like a million-billionaire!
    Fuck. This is kinda depressing, but in addition to looking kinda like an older version of them, I use facebook and read digg.
    Who started Gawker? Lemme guess: white guy in a stupid T-shirt, probably younger than me.

    I'm pretty sure that "riding Tony Hawk's tunnel" and "riding Tony Hawk's half-pipe" are two distinctly different experiences. #wereadtwittersoyoudonthaveto

    Does anyone use Twitter beside self-important/obscure media types?

    To their credit, one generally leaves one's Blackberry charging in the beach house bedroom for the month of August.

    Since you're reading Twitter so that we don't have to, would you mind terribly reading it to just yourself?

    In reply to Why Amazon.com Should Buy Digg
    Amazon's reviews can be wickedly entertaining as well. Case in point, Looking For - Best of David Hasselhoff: [www.amazon.com] (Be prepared to waste an hour or so.)


    The song "Hot Shot City" is particularly good. (1,042 people can't be wrong.)

    My favorite moment from SXSW (from 1000 miles away, of course) was the crashing of wi-fi at the Hilton (and a few other places) over the weekend. These suddenly muted twitterers had no way of tweeting their every move and thought. The horror! What's the point of attending SXSW if you can't pretend for your few friends back home how great it all is?

    @MrInBetween: Tweeting? I hate that word. I prefer Twitting. Sounds more appropriate. Twits Twitting on Tweeter Twitting Tweets About Twits - say that five times real fast.

    "Open Caption" replaces "Caption Contest"? C'mon are the budget cuts so bad that you can't be bothered to read comments and pick the best one? Granted, with this particular collection the pickings are slim.

    Yay, caption contests! I have missed these.


    But Owen et al, shouldn't the tag/category say "caption contest" not "open caption", so the caption contests stay on one page?
