Been blogging on Posterous.

But I will definitely have to pick and stick with just one.

Following
So… why am I following Lovequotesrus again? These blog posts and photos are brainwashing me into thinking that I’m in love or need it. Holy crap.
“Before Tumblr, there were ‘tumblelogs’: experimental, interesting HTML pages where you didn’t have well-structured posts. You could just throw a link up, or a moving GIF, or a photo, or anything you’d find, and you’d collect those things on one long page. So when we released our platform, we took it straight to the tumblelogging community and said, ‘Hey, look, we built a real tool to make all the neat stuff you guys are doing available to more people.’ They were thrilled. And because they really understood what Tumblr was about, they set a great example for new users. That helped us get a lot of early traction.”

Twitter
When I signed up for Twitter, I had no clue what I would be getting myself into. Initially, I barely used the microblogging service, but now I find myself getting antsy when I don’t check it daily to at least scan over my newsfeed. It has completely changed the structure of my social circle because I feel connected with people on Twitter. If I’m not around my peers, or I’m alone somewhere, Twitter becomes the go-to place to immerse myself socially. Each @reply is as intimate as it gets because you know an individual has taken the time to personally write to you. I know that this sounds bazaar, but it is what it is.

Parisians in Italy
Back when I was in Europe, I saw Parisians in Italy. I could tell by their choice of clothing. It was kind of awkward seeing them in a “foreign” place. I think they went looking for work… but it was easy to tell that they didn’t truly belong… they were uncomfortable, and forced to find work outside of their home. Point is, there really isn’t a point… it was just a little something I noticed… but yeah, you could spot a Parisian from a mile away.
“I hate it when people call themselves ‘entrepreneurs’ when what they are really trying to do is launch a startup and then sell or go public, so they can cash in and move on. They are unwilling to do the work it takes to build a real company, which is the hardest work in business. That’s how you really make a contribution and add the legacy of those who went before. You build a company that will still stand for something a generation of two from now. That’s what Walt Disney did, and Hewlett and Packard, and the people who built Intel. That’s what I want Apple to be.”
