Hey! What is the most inspirational blog, blog post or book of 2008 that should be on my 2009 reading list?
RT @modxcms: It’s [MODx] very intuitive, transparent and above all easy to use. Kudos! (via http://is.gd/ebgv)
Didn’t realize until last night that David Fincher (Benjamin Buttons) directed some huge pop music videos of the 80s. Wow!
RT @AdamDesAutels: Hate it when Tweets mass follow and then immediately unfollow everyone, even the ones that follow them back. RUDE!!
Its 9AM and everyone is still asleep here.
Good morning to all my new followers. 15 of you joined up for my silliness. Welcome and say “Hi” today.
I think that my rant last evening about self-interested marketers seems to have struck a chord. Lots of new marketing followers. Welcome!
RT @flashlight: Hilarious RT @geofharries: Lately I’ve been daydreaming about living in a much warmer place. Like Edmonton.

Do what the great marketers do and not what the great marketers sell. Don’t buy your marketing success, do it!
Hey, did you know that I’m a champion for busting marketing bullshit? Don’t buy that kit, report or $2k Seminar. You are being sold to.
MODx Spotting: RT @Qoska: MODX = Amazing content management framework
RT @lpgauthier: The art of radical exclusion… Set priorities, stick to them and practice saying NO more often than YES!
If you follow someone and unfollow them as soon as they follow back on Twitter you are worse than a troll.
Down for some breakfast.
RT @joelkelly: Sure, give Canada the boring states (scroll down for awesome map): http://is.gd/dWlu
I need to get a tabletop mic stand or articulating stand for my Podcasting mic.
MODx Spotting: RT @mayhemchaos: I <3 Modx w/Ditto :) that’s all
RT @SpiderVideo: lets all say hi and follow @PodcampHalifax RT at will!
T bought me this for Christmas and it rocks: http://is.gd/e2fD Now I have to clean all the wires of my desk.
To the person who followed me this afternoon whose last 10 tweets were all caps. I’d like to followback but I hate shouting. :)
Bought some Propeller IPAs for tonight. I love it: more hops than a bunny farm.
Someone sent me a PM on a forum asking what my rates are. For what? How about describing the type of work? I’m choosy.
Can someone @ me. I feel like I’m in a vacuum. I know there are some fun folks out there.
RT @cindyleigh: MODx rocks… the longer I use it, the more I find to do with it & its always so dam easy! Def my CMS recommend for ‘09
Impressed with difference between our CanonA85 and the RebelXS w/ IS lens. 8GB SD got me to 600pix in 3days and still 1200 left. Phew.
Welcome to my new followers. I won’t be Tweeting much until next week as it’s mostly family time. Having a great Christmas break.
Any Atlantic Canadian Tweeple heading out to Boxing Day sales today?Are you out now?Crazy? Lineups?
Merry Christmas to all those twitterites who celebrate. Best wishes to eveyone!
Finally replaced the Christmas lights around the front door. The Grinch who stole them didn’t know I had 10,000 more in my attic. Hah!
Morning folks. How are you doing today?Are you ready for Christmas? Lots to do still?
Tooting MODx again. MODx 0.9.6.3 (the CMS) was released and is out now. Last of the 0.9.6x numbering: http://is.gd/ddkJ
Snow. Turning to rain. Temp to go from -4ºC to +9ºC overnight. Awesome day so far though.
Sporting the new @Tweetdeck release. Thanks @iaindodsworth. Happy Christmas!
RT @NixTheNews: a CHARLIE BROWN Christmas in under 2 minutes. RT and help spread the Christmas cheer > http://TwitPWR.com/Cl/
RT @modxcms We actually managed to get MODx 0963 out before Christmas no matter what time zone you’re in. Back story: http://is.gd/ddkJ
AAAAHHHHH!!! A slash of sun just blew through my blind and damn near burned my retinas. I love the sun but ouch.
I followback almost anyone who looks like they have something to share and act like a genuine person on Twitter.
If I don’t follow you back it is because you act like a self-interested spammer. Links in every tweet, sharing nothing and DMs with URLs.
So much for putting on those lights for now. I’m not sure how a town with 8000 residents has 20000 cars in it today. Off to pick up T.
Had so little time for work today. I may just go and replace the lights the Grinch stole from my front door. After some hot anise tea.
Are all my Halfax and Atlantic Canadian Twitfolk off enjoying real life today? @me if you’re working or around.
No mail since last Wednesday! WTF Canada Post is crap. They make Purolator look competent. Have to go to the PO to see where the my mail is.
RT @lpgauthier: Attention marketers: Time to stop abusing Twitter http://bit.ly/S0a0 worth the read, page 6 is telling http://bit.ly/JOOj
RT @MelKirk: OH: Don’t dip your meat in the hummus [Me: ROFLOL]
Open Source CMS observers. MODx 0.9.6.3 will be released this week. Minor release number: major changes. @modxcms to find out more.
Breathing is getting easier. Damned sinus cold. Will be getting work put to bed for the holiday break today. (Maybe a little tomorrow too.)
Now is the time to reiterate that we felt far safer in Toronto (WIllowdale) than here in Bridgewater or where we’ve lived in NS.
RT @modxcms: modx 0.9.6.3 is a deceptively minor version bump with a not-so-insignificant feature update due out before Christmas.
Just realised that some person stole the lights around my front door. WTF.
