  • Was about to order some books, but decided to wait for the #iPad to arrive and try getting eBooks instead. iBooks vs Kindle for iPad? #
  • .@antonejohnson @shaig I always took the self-described 'visionary' to mean that they have hallucinations of their own grandeur. #
  • RT @priyacmu: LOL. Now, THERE's a quote! "Life was much easier when Apple and BlackBerry were just fruits!" (via @iheartquotes @hanskkusuma) #
  • Agreed. RT @mattmireles: My favorite thing about startup culture: the "Pay It Forward" mindset. #
  • RT @stevejang: would be helpful if apple could create a pre-approval "beta tester" iphone app store rather than the UDID & file drop method. #
