Twitter C/D

things just got self-referential

a lot of people have bad taste, and lot of them follow bad people.

there is a large market for bad tweets.

notifications now appear as a pop up on web twitter btw, loooooooooooooooooool

lol otm

another facebook feature

i don't see how it's necessarily bad. if you have it open all day on the desktop it means you won't have to keep switching over to the notifications tab to see what's going on

it might be more distracting to some

Is it a pop up that pop up blockers block?

i would assume not, but i could be totally wrong. traditionally, those have dealt with separate pages launching in a separate window, while this, i think, would be something like a div appearing as part of the existing page.

too bad lag00n's not here to tell me whether or not that's in the realm of plausibility

too busy popping up on my twtr

That's a thing iirc

poppage

Smash It In ‏@SmashItIn
Following England to world cup glory with news, banter and local girls who are looking to score with you and get smashed in.

lol yeah feel like u cld def block those it just a lil jquery prob but no one does cause theyre usually used for legit purposes and a lot of sites wouldnt really work if u did tho maybe someone cld write a specific plugin for twitter to just block the notifications idk, u cant turn them off in settings

i just got finished w a two week solitary meditation retreat and i will admit to an extended episodic day dream abt making an app that is like twitter except less of a bummer and getting fabulously wealthy

welcome back, friend.

thanks bud

Yo did you do it in Nepal

Someone in my program did one in Kathmandu and he said a girl started crying on the 3rd day and they had to give her back her passport and let her leave early

Namaste

naw im in vt, yeah solitary retreat can be quite trying no one shd really do it until they have some solid experience w group retreat and daily practice under their belts, even then u might cry and demand yr passport back

Have no idea if anyone remembers me at ILX. Currently, I have several hundred followers on twitter. Thank you to everyone for the helpful advice given me from a while back. Special thanks to the person up thread (I can’t find the exact post now), who suggested I use #hashtags. The use of hashtags does seem to have helped me get some twitter followers. Unfortunately, according to this article at
http://www.buzzfeed.com/charliewarzel/is-twitter-phasing-out-hashtags-and-at-replies
hashtags (& ‘at-replies’) will probably be phased out.

(P.S. If anyone’s interested: I haven’t been able to post at ILX for the past few months because there have been quite a few things going on: 1 of my cats died & the other cat had some health issues & needed several vet visits. It’s been quite busy & stressful the past few months. I hope things settle down by this Autumn 2014.)

Thanks again to everyone for the helpful advice.

new fave

no was the twit is ever getting rid of #hashtags thats them brand m8

more like am.asock.always

v curious to see what they do as far as @replies tho, multi party online convos are one of the toughest design problems on the whole net, and their current setup is lacking for sure

Hmmm...Not sure what to make of this comment. I guess I'll just conclude that ienjoyhotdogs is stoned. No other conclusion makes sense in this situation.

Carry on!
