Blurb is hosting Lunch 2.0 today on Valentine’s Day!
Reading people’s twitter’s I think
Am I the only single person who loves Valentine’s day?
Oh the gifts, flowers, chocolates, singing telegram, and the the restaurant dinner reservation! I love watching the public trauma this day brings to two people in love. Sometimes it is like a romance sped [...]

Just now, Mager messaged me:
“I am excited for Lunch two dot oh—I don’t say “point-oh” anymore.
Flashback.

In the summer of 1992, a friend was reading me a geek purity test he got from USENET.
One of the questions was:
Do you pronounce “*.*” as “star-dot-star?”
Of course, since he was reading it aloud, I heard:

I love Lunch 2.0. It’s ironic that something that started as a prank on Web 2.0 could become representative of the very thing it teases: free and open communication and “the lunch as a conversation.”
Even though I missed Lunch 2.0 at Oodle, you have to love this mobile post via Utterz by Chris Heuer catching [...]

I shouted back, “Shit, if you need the money that bad, let’s walk down to WaMu and start three Y Combinators right now.”
For some reason, the other people in the office [...]

19th century German neurophysiologists successfully map out the brain after a transcontinental flight
Researching my last article was amusing, but doing so made me realize an error in something I said last month.

Ever since Ed Finkler found out I use twitter a few months ago, he has been bugging me to install Spaz. Then, when Spaz became Spaz.AIR, he did it again.

Dave finally found The Web 2.0 or Star Wars Character? quiz.
He told me he got around a 33 out of 43.

*iPhone rings*
“What’s up?”
“You called me earlier.”
“I’m at work now.”
“What’s that noise in the background.”
“I’m watching the latest BubCast. There is something about Spock. They’re hosting a Lunch 2.0 soon and I need some fodder for our announcement. All I found so far was that shit TED posted.”

“You know…from Uncov? I met him last week. Someone [...]
