I'm a Internet and Digital Media consultant and entrepeneur. Recently I was part of the team that created twalala and I'm working on a couple other tricks at the moment.

Just wanted to say, "Good job Jack!" at Expo 2008 today. Nice microphone-drop recovery ;)
And, from the department of "Who knew?", Jack is also a walking Taqueria Pacifica menu, pricing and all.

Rentomatic.com gets a nice mention on http://springwise.com/
It's currently on the front page in an article titled, "Web Tools for Landlords"
Title: RI Nexus RSS on Twitter (Forum)
Submitted: April 17th, 2008 - 7:21pm
Hey All. I was thinking that it would be cool to see the featured comments from RI Nexus on my Twitter page, so I created a new Twitter user called RINexus - http://www.twitter.com/rinexus Be sure to follow it.
It uses TwitterFeed and pulls the RI Nexus RSS feed automagically every 30 minutes. I just created it so it has yet to fire off. The first time it does, it will only pull the latest RSS entry. After that it will pull the latest 5 entries.
I'm happy to hand this off to the official RInexus.com crew, but I don't think there's really anything left to do with it. If you want to change anything, feel free to holler at me.
Title: FireFox 3 beta (Forum)

Just wanted to say how much I'm loving FF3. If you haven't yet checked it out, go for it. The latest beta update of Firebug (my fav ff extension) is now playing with FF3 rather nicely.

You should probably also check out the coolest Twitter client on the planet - Twalala (born in RI!)
So I've been using it for a couple hours. It's impressively fast. Fastest browser I've seen. Especially its Javascript implementation - very fast. I can already see the benefits of separate processes for each tab/win. One thing that's bugging me is that when you begin to type an address in the location bar and you see the location recommendation right below where you're typing, you can't just hit tab to auto-complete. Firefox will do that for you. I think they need to take the same path there.
I plan on it. I'm interested in a few features, specifically the ability to launch a tab as its own "app" without nav, etc.
Sara, You should note that Open Coffee isn't at the Liberty Elm, it's at 729 Hope Cafe. The posts previous to yours are a bit older.
I'd actually paid attention to DandyID before your RI move, glad to have you with us!

I am staying with my Nokia N95 until I hear that the new iPhone has A2DP Bluetooth allowing for stereo audio over Bluetooth. It's amazing to me that Apple hasn't included this when one of the main selling points of the iPhone is its seemless integration with iTunes. I use a Venturi Mini Stereo Bluetooth Receiver/Handsfree in my car which is patched into my Aux input on my stereo. This allows me to turn my car on, hit play on my phone in my pocket, and immediately have music (2 channel stereo) playing over my car system. Also, when a call comes in, the music automatically pauses and I can take the call hands-free. I hang up and the music continues. Good, simple stuff that the iPhone needs.
