Do not disturb me for the next several hours. There's a Zerg threat in need of my attention. The fate of the Universe is in the balance.
"The cool kid" is an acceptable alternative if you can't remember my name. Disregarding the fact I'm 30.

dropping from 7 to 5 screens & losing the Pure Messenger widget have greatly improved my phone's stability. Android

Well, @ConanOBrien learned of the new Kindle from his iPad. I read about it on my Nexus One.

4 years ago today, serendipity introduced me to the woman who would become my wife.
next up: getting an iOS 4 & Android 2.2 dual boot set-up on my iPhone 3G & configuring it for use as a pre-paid GoPhone. Why? 'Cause I can.

the iPhone is like the training bra of smartphones.
New geek pet peeve: "Droid" is the name for Verizon's line of phones; the platform is called Android. And you don't have an iPhone 4G, srsly

wanna know what I love the most about Android? Widgets & not having my home screen just be 4 rows of icons. My phone has its own personality
asked Hulu about an Android app … got a non-answer. Have decided against getting a Hulu Plus account because of that. Netflix & TPB it is.
this is the first weekend I've had 100% free of work since our honeymoon. It feels weird.

It's pathetic how horrible it is to search the Android Market. Google … Search. Why can't I find anything without knowing its exact name?!
everytime I learn something, I am destroyed and am reborn a new person.
realized web-enabled technology in our house (devices with a full web browser that can connect via WiFi) outnumbers people 6-to-1.

I'm like a breakfast pastry: light, flaky, and a little fruity.
I'd find it sad that my home Internet connection is faster & more reliable than my work Internet connection if it weren't so frustrating.
Barnes & Noble FINALLY releases their Android e-reader app. Though I still prefer reading on the Nook than a light-emitting screen.

just got my Hulu Plus invite … but I'm not paying $50/yr for a PS Plus acct to use the PS3 app & still no Android app. Not worth $10/mo yet.
I'm finally gonna do it … gonna root my Nexus One. I want 720p video recording & FM radio. Think I'll watch some .hack//SIGN while I do it.

need to figure out the best way to stream video to the TV in the bedroom. Netbook controlled via VLC Remote for Android perhaps?
It's interesting learning who's using an Android phone based on the client they posted a status update from.
I wonder if there's been any personality analysis of people who look down while walking versus looking forward. I tend to look down.
StarCraft II comes out next week!
it's hard NOT to go organic when they'll delivery it to your house on a schedule.
oh yeah! Watching the first episode of "Out of this World" … subtitled in Arabic. Tomorrow "My Secret Identity" with a young Jerry O'Connell

Google Reader has a "Sort by magic" option for RSS feeds. o_O heh?!? Did Google hire faeries?

We are now an Android household. Just got Mercedes an HTC Aria, the smallest Android phone available, to go with my HTC Nexus One by Google.
