@JustinSxE yes, it's inside in the old snake cage (no snakes!) in a tupperware with soft blankie, birdseed and water. what do I dooooo?
@DieMcClane LOL.
@snarkydork good point. @JustinSxE it's not a total baby. I don't think.

@Astronautics I see we have a common hobby in feeding "wild" animals. You=hedgehog, me=baby bird.
drove around all day. got hit on the head with a piece of metal for the roll cage. bought skeleton tights. didn't manage to stop by BBQ :(

@margaretcho I'm sure that can be arranged. Have a caliber preference?
@chickenjohn good to hear. I was wondering how things were going....
at the zombies without borders show we coined a new term - ZILF - zombie I'd like to .... well - you know the rest. #zombieswithoutborders
FB is so AOL it hurts. Does this fact get lost on everyone? Or does no one care? Or did they not remember the early/mid AOL days?
@daveharkins 70's mainframe? wow. I was thinking back a decade. I'm impressed. :)
@martinboz love it re: walled gardens the new black. I want community gardens (literally and metaphorically).
You could say that for Internet Fads too. RT @lucas_gonze: Social networking fads are like boy bands.
@martinboz what is the internet version of a Walther PP and AR-15? Time for me to acquire. Inspire the revolution.
@daveharkins Still. So much foreshadowing. It's not just a/b the idea or the execution - it's about timing.
@kozmicfunk ooooh. Ouch. You hit me right in the kisser. But twitter has more mass-friendly web 2.0 user interface = usage adoption via fad
@kozmicfunk not saying that it's right. don't even get me started with BBS's and forums and social network comparison.
@kozmicfunk When I worked on AIM at AOL - the only reason we didn't open up the network was because we wanted to OWN it.
@kozmicfunk Your friends on our network was the only value we could provide. If they went elsewhere = bad 4 us. So focus on building
@kozmicfunk features that would keep ppl using our network. (shit, I got started)
@martinboz but I don't want zombie/clones. I want the firepower? I will meditate on the idea... might not translate. electricity=fire?
@kozmicfunk One of my fav bad AOL AIM moments was legal sending a cease and desist to an AIM fansite. I wanted to hire him. #corpfail
@martinboz flexible and malleable is good/bad - depends on who is manipulating. also I am reminded - medium is message
would people be interested in hearing my bad/startups gone awry stories? from the past 12 years?
@martinboz ah. taoism. <3. we have come full circle. everything exists only for the creative expression of energy.
@daveharkins so - what do you think will be reinvented next? or what needs reinventing next?
@kozmicfunk I tried to launch cool features for AIM. Account Linking was mine. Allowed you to link you many AIM accounts/usernames.
@shoghon what is this? and when?
@shoghon yes, I will be there then. but mom's surgery is on the 20th. I fly out to 24 hours of LeMons on 21 or 22nd... then back pdx
@daveharkins hard to forecast, but I always find myself authentically interested in what becomes the next big things 2-3 years down
@daveharkins rt now am into community/container gardening, science revitalization & singularity. looking at nano/bio. lost faith in internet
@daveharkins also lots of thinking on community vs empire blding. cliques vs communities. got big ideas on those topics, but scared to post

@cloud79 thanks for that info.
@kozmicfunk people already are going offline. backlash has already started albeit small. (thanks for the RT)
@martinboz cool. yeah, I figure if I'm gonna become a futurist, I'd better start writing down my predictions.
so is that 3 earthquakes in as many days LA people? I am so irritated I missed this.
@martinboz well I plan to get a ph.d in it very soon. I'm sure it involves a lot of math and ability to extrapolate and juggle wild cards.
@martinboz since I am a change agent and wild card, I am already on the edge of the future with one foot in the present and one in el futuro

@martinboz I'm thinking its gotta be Cognitive, Neuroscience and AI along with future forecasting.
@martinboz But before AI, you gotta understand human I. And there is still a long way to go on that front. Humans are very complicated.
@martinboz that would be awesome. thanks!
