Slamming the door may cause damage to the time movement.

My Tumblr blog is, like, totally awesome.

It’s @DanRubin on the roof of @Clearleft Towers.
There are bespectacled, plaid-clothed web designers playing table tennis in the @Clearleft meeting room.
We are an embarrassing cliché.

Thank you, @Therematrix.

Hello, San Francisco. You are significantly warmer than Seattle. Nice to be in you.

In transit.
On the centenary of Hedy Lamarr’s birth, I am sending a message from a computer on a wireless network (within a nascent spaceport in Texas).
Heading to Seattle after two weeks in Florida.
I had a good time in this state. I’ll miss it when it’s gone.

So long, Jacksonville.
Nothing quite like a nice evening of good conversations with lovely people.

A very pleasant little road trip from Orlando to Jacksonville, with a BBQ stop along the way.

Time to bid farewell to this enclosed artificial biosphere.

Post-conference beer, outside.
Feeling embarrassed on behalf of the good people I know working at @Mozilla.
Tuesday, November 4th, 2014
Had to change seats at this conference to get away from the guy who isn’t silencing the SMS alert sounds from his Samsung phone. That sound.
Listening to @hcatlin give CSS a hard time …somewhat unfairly, in my opinion, like I said here: https://adactio.com/journal/7653
Pondering all the things, after listening to @saddington give an incredibly brave, raw and personal talk at @bdconf.
Thank you.

Goodness, I’ve been huffduffing quite a bit lately.
Cheering on @SeaJeb from afar as he runs the New York city marathon.
Go, Jeb, go!

Now, that’s a user interface.

Extravehicular activity.

Found some great reading material from 1982.
Saturday, November 1st, 2014
Looking forward to reading @GreatDismal’s latest work, but I’m really hoping he’s got his comma-Tourette’s under control.
I think I’ve finally figured out a way for @Huffduffer to get at the audio files locked up in embedded Soundcloud iframes.
Finally!
