David Crowder Band Rockumentary
Man I love the David Crowder Band! This video they did is hilarious. I really was sitting all alone watching it and busted out laughing. Mia came running in asking, “what’s so funny”? I showed her Crowder imitating David after the Dentist and she cracked up too. I love the pop culture references like – “Cool Whip & Twitter Whale“
Power of the Internet
Not long ago I wrote about the power of twitter on my blog. I saw a video about a guy who had a bad experience with United Airlines and since he didn’t get it resolved he made a viral video that as of today has been viewed by over two million people. For the whole story visit his site here. Once again this is an example of how anyone can have a voice that can be heard by millions without the cost of a broadcast.

iPhone 3.0 and Twitter
I am so happy so far with the iPhone 3.0 update and this because of only one MAJOR feature… SMS Texting update.
I use twitter a lot and unlike the early days, I finally have a lot of my actual friends (people I know) on twitter. At the moment I am following 325 people on twitter. There is no way I would follow all of them through text messages, so I have always had people I don’t want to miss like my friends and then some people who I really love their twitters and wouldn’t want to miss them. The problem with this (UNTIL NOW) has been that if I have a busy day or two and don’t read those messages then I have to go through and read them all in one setting because if I stop reading them I had to go through hundreds of messages just to find where I was.
Enter the new iPhone 3.0 update. Now, if I miss a couple of days I can start anywhere I want on the list and delete each message as I go. On top of that, if there is something I want to check out later like a book recommendation, website to check out, or video to see, I can just click that message forward it to twitter as a direct message to my Evernote account by adding “D myen” to the beginning of the message. Then later when I have time I can go to Evernote and check out the link/video/book/etc.
Since I no longer have a job where I sit at my computer all day or at least part of the day, it has been hard to stay updated on twitter. With this new iPhone 3.0 Update I am probably going to turn on some more direct notifications going to my cell phone.
For a list of what has been updated in iPhone 3.0 check this link that came from AVCLUB’s Twitter.
As a side note out there for Tweetie, Twitterific, Tweetdeck, and any other twitter app designers – It would be so awesome to have a feature that has twitters come in like an email that you can save, delete, mark as read and that comes in and keeps them even if I don’t check it for 5 days or more.
I’ve toyed with the idea of subscribing to an rss feed of my followers and have them come to a different email address that I could check. Maybe Google wave will assist in that?
