@andrea_r I always think of Mu users as being smarter than the average WP'er. But I guess idiots come in all shapes and sizes 🙁

@andrea_r I'd have hoped people running WPMu would be smarter than to still be running on WP2.9.x 🙁

RT @vprelovac: SEO has become so volatile. The best way to do SEO nowadays is almost not to think about it…

@JohnJamesJacoby I remember those from Canada. It was pain in the neck having to stand there holding the darned thing!

@th3j35t3r Is there any chance you could turn comments on for your blog? Thanks 🙂

@NinjaLikesCheez It's an Aluminium reseller account … http://www.hostgator.com/resellers.shtml

Any recommendations for an Android IRC app? Currently trying AndChat, not sure if there's anything better out there http://www.andchat.net/

RT @zamoose: What what WHAT? RT @CNNMoney: Google to acquire mobile phone maker Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion. http://CNNMoney.com

@zamoose Wow! That's pretty major news. I guess Motorola is about to become a whole lot better shortly.

@anthonycole @pwcc Melbourne is boring to visit. There's nothing there. Been, seen, bored … moving along.

Jeepers. Snow, snow, snow -> more snow -> gap -> 5 mm diameter hail stones! I wonder what's next!?

@jennybeaumont I assume so. I haven't actually heard back from my client yet. They're missing in action!

Random snow sculptures outside my apartment this evening … https://plus.google.com/u/0/110903788122203327516/posts/Scki2z6biEd

My little Otago Polytech minions are hooning along writing WP code like a bat outta hell 🙂 https://plus.google.com/110903788122203327516/posts/Y8UgFTrtLTy

Snow, snow and more snow … https://plus.google.com/110903788122203327516/posts/e9LMT9bxSBZ. And I thought winter was over already.

@jennybeaumont Thanks! DM coming your way 🙂

I still have CSS work for anyone that has a few minutes free. Minor bug I can't fix coz I don't have IE7 at hand right now. DM for details.

@jmuenster I think that's caused by the filament being too fat, so instead of popping like a fuse, it explodes and takes the glass with it.

Anyone keen for a few minutes CSS work this evening? I don't have IE7 at hand and need to iron out a minor bug. If yer keen, DM me please 🙂

@Alieack Thanks for the NZIHF nationals result tweets 🙂

@humphreybc Cool. Copy and paste seemed like a glaring gap in the OS.

@humphreybc That's coz they're too lazy to outline exactly what they changed. Or at least that's why I do it!

@jordantcarter Thanks 🙂

Yay, I just cracked exactly 1000 Twitter followers for the first time 🙂 I've been bobbling around 900+ for a long time now.

@jennybeaumont It looks like they'll be building a weather application which interfaces with a WordPress powered site instead.

@jstr Your JS advice earlier worked flawlessly. It will shave a lot off the load time for a project @danmilward and I are working on!

@anthonycole @pgibbs We discussed concept of a mobile WordCamp through NZ Southern Alps. Not sure if that is viable or not.

@wysiwygjt I'm giving a presentation at them in about 18 hours time, so need the ideas before then.

@jennybeaumont Thanks 🙂 The more ideas the merrier 🙂 I'd like to give them options so they can choose what to work on.

@jennybeaumont I was thinking bbPress might have some basic missing functionality that could be added perhaps.

@jennybeaumont Anything WP related is free game 🙂 Just needs to be simple. They have zero experience with WP so needs to be basic stuff.

List of suggestions so far for free WP plugin ideas … https://plus.google.com/110903788122203327516/posts/gEAACcGcFih. Any more suggestions? @jennybeaumont @wysiwygjt

RT @jennybeaumont: Um, yes please! RT @ryanhellyer: Anyone interested in having some custom WordPress plugins built for free? http://t.c …

@wysiwygjt Is there anything in particular you think needs developed via the WP.com API?

RT @miriamschwab: Check out interview with WP Paintbrush Developers @danmilward and @ryanhellyer http://illum.in/pmDOde

@anthonycole @christopherbull LOL. How about a SilverStripe to WordPress converter?

I need some very basic WP plugin ideas for IT students to build. Any suggestions? Also looking for mentors if anyone is keen to help out.

RT @wpmuorg: Check out our interview with WP Paintbrush Developers @danmilward and @ryanhellyer http://bit.ly/piGEXx

RT @bethannon: @WPPaintbrush OMG! I just played a little with your beta 8! This is great! I'll look forward to seeing this develop!

RT @bethannon: WP tweeps: ck this out! WP Frontend Theme Editor (in beta) | @WPPaintbrush http://bit.ly/n52xU9

Excellent article from Siobhan about our new WordPress theme WP Paintbrush … http://wpmu.org/wp-paintbrush-a-new-wordpress-theme-creator-and-front-end-editor/

RT @danmilward: An oldie but a goodie 😉
“WP Paintbrush WordPress theme now launched … http://getshopped.org/themes-and-design/wordpress-paintbrush-theme/. … "
who says that eh???

@danmilward @no_fear_inc I'll try to sort GIT for wppaintbrush.com this week. It was originally a paid theme, so needed a regular old zip.

WP Paintbrush WordPress theme now launched … http://getshopped.org/themes-and-design/wordpress-paintbrush-theme/. Theme is from myself and @danmilward … http://wppaintbrush.com/

@th3j35t3r Interesting find. I assumed no one would have known the identity of @atopiary before the cops got him.

RT @th3j35t3r: @atopiary was finally officially named today. Jake Davis. Who knew huh? – http://i.imgur.com/dRyZz.png

@five15design Follow @ShanOnimous for Dunedin hockey results.

@A_MorrisonTVNZ Oops.My bad sorry.

@five15design They ended up basically presenting an advertisement for the event. No real attack on the promoters at all unfortunately.

@A_MorrisonTVNZ @ButchNick It's an exhibition game to make money. They aint trying to promote the game 😛

@A_MorrisonTVNZ What makes you think ESPN is covering the event? And why on earth would they want to?

@huwbeynonTV3 That was a bit of let down. I thought you guys were about to launch an attack on the event organisers.

RT @A_MorrisonTVNZ: Got exclusive access with the USA + Canada Ice Hockey teams at Vector today.. check out one news sport tonight!

@A_MorrisonTVNZ Thanks for covering the NZ hockey debacle. We've been battling them for quite a while now … http://slapshot.net.nz/index.php?topic=1827

RT @huwbeynonTV3: Find out what the Ice Blacks think of a phony international Ice Hockey series in NZ, and what it means to the game her …

My attempt at a Darwin award … http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tz6PFfC3gI

@scribu yeah, that's what irks me so much. Google can do it no problem but amazingly ms & fb can't.

@chip_bennett Bizarre. I assumed Netflix would work on any platform. Does it work on phones?

Why oh why does Facebook video calling not work on linux!? It's in a freakin' browser … why would it matter what OS I'm' using!?

@NinjaLikesCheez I can provide everything but skates. There in 30 mins.

@NinjaLikesCheez Any chance I can convince you to join us? https://ice.hellyer.kiwi/2011maniototo-trip/ Costs $80 for a weekend playing hockey under the stars 🙂

@alvingrier The installation instructions can be found here … http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pixopoint-menu/installation/

@alvingrier there is no such thing as a PixoPoint category plugin.

@JohnIMM I'm not available via phone sorry. I am fairly easy to track down via skype though.

RT @andrea_r: I really do not say this often or lightly, but I'm playing with a beta theme I think may be game-changing for users.

Anyone out there have good (demonstrable) skills integrating WordPress themes with other software? I'm looking to refer some paid work.

@dgwyer It's one of the sets for Lord of the Rings, so actually a fantasy movie!

Any opinions on what android apps I should install for NZ maps?

Sweet photo taken on my new phone today:
http://bit.ly/jvBlgM. More photos here http://bit.ly/kCNdpH.

Any skilled CSS coders out there looking for an hours work within the next few hours? I need some stuff done and don't have time.

@cursa Thanks for the recommendation. The official Facebook app. is starting to get on my nerves, so might try out Tweetdeck tomorrow.

I'm in a grumpy mood! Gonna go sleep it off 🙁 Stupid software, grrrr …

I spent the past nine hours trying to fix something which turned out to be nothing more than a malfunctioning browser … ARGHHHH!!!!!!

@cursa Yep, client recommendations are welcome 🙂

@toddhalfpenny I'll give TweetDeck a try once I've gotten used to the official apps. – so I can compare them properly.

@toddhalfpenny Are there any particular advantages over the official app?

@IsraelButson Thanks. Good to know. I'm still quite confused by my phone, but hopefully it'll all make sense by the end of the week!

@davecoveney Thanks. Those came with my phone so I've been using them today. Good to hear I can stick with those ones 🙂

@matthancocknz Been using the Facebook app. and yeah, it seems crappy, particularly for instant messaging which seems to be non-existent!?

@matthancocknz Thanks. I always hear people ranting about Tweetdeck and so on and wasn't sure if they were better or not.

@danmilward Michelle already asked me about the slider – they're controlled by date.

@danmilward 8am? I remember that from my school years, didn't know it still existed!

N00b Android user here. Any recommendations for how best to use Twitter, Facebook etc. on Android?

@danmilward I was going to suggest the exact same thing 🙂

@danmilward I just found a bug in the image uploader. Not working after recent performance upgrades.

@danmilward What do you think needs done with the site? I think it needs more oomph, not sure what though.

@danmilward About to mail bomb remaining possible beta testers. Otherwise looks ready to go in my opinion. More testers would be good though

@anthonycole It's worth it for the $500 I saved 😛

Yuss! I have belatedly joined the ranks of smart phone owners. Huawei IDEOS X5 🙂 http://bit.ly/kxcadY

@danmilward It already is.

@danmilward I slashed our load time in half thanks to input from @dd32!
