    Oh the good ol' days, eh?
    How are things Robert? Sunny or cloudy?
    I'll be seeing Geoff Smith soon at The Big Bang for a Twitter meet-up. I'm
    looking forward to that.

    Do ANY of these folks even know what tweets are? Great video...creative, funny and a way to celebrate tweets without tweeting.

    Thanks Shannon:
    Yes, it was funny to see that they had no idea what I was on about. Some
    thought it was something dirty and were worried about being in the video :-)
    Reminds me of a t-shirt I once saw: "I twittered your husband". Classic.

    Cheers.

    Congratulations Dave! The best part are the looks of confusion on their faces when they say "Tweets". :-)

    Here's to 8000 more!

    Thanks Susan. Funny, because none of them knew what Twitter is. I thought at
    least the Radio Shack dudes would know, but nope.

    I'll be at the Bang for sure. Thanks for your comment. It was pretty funny
    to do. Most people were fine with it, actually like 99% said yes.

    Cheers

    Dave, per our Twitter conversation, I can comment on your blog IMMEDIATELY, but not on those other two...kudos my friend. I'll have to let those other blogs know.

    Oh I see. So your friends must have something configured incorrectly in Disqus. Ok, thanks for letting me know. I was concerned that perhaps some people were unable to comment on my blog. Good to know everything is working then.

    I'm a fan of Disqus so far, I'm quite happy with the service. I just logged in and found a great new widget too. I've just installed it in my right sidebar on my blog. Check it out.

    Cheers,
