Rainy day in SF, so let’s bring out the big guns.

During development.
I love how this is looking so far, Marco. Great idea and execution. A couple (obvious) requests:
- Ability to click back to original post when someone you’re following @ replies to an original tweet (this feature is often broken in Twitter itself, sigh)
- Within “Messages”, ability to choose to DM from amongst your friends from a dropdown menu like Twitter’s, rather than relying on the command “d friendsname xxxx” (I got it wrong once and tweeted a my buddy’s phone # to the world, yikes)
- Ok, this is not Twitter-related, but since I’m here and hoping you’re reading this, why doesn’t my Vimeo Plus status translate to videos I upload through Tumblr? I should be jumping to the front of the queue!

‘I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear…’
Our 44th President takes the oath of office. There was a trivial, momentary slip when Chief Justice John Roberts asked Obama to recite the first line of the oath in the incorrect order. Roberts said “execute the office of President of the United States faithfully,” rather than “faithfully execute.” The oath reads: “I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” Obama paused and allowed Roberts to correct himself.
I just assumed Obama had forgotten the rest of the phrase and was pausing, as if to say, “Line?” Watching again, this explanation does make more sense, and makes Obama even cooler.
As usual, B’s on it.

This is an important message for the Indie 103.1 Radio Audience -
Indie 103.1 will cease broadcasting over this frequency effective immediately. Because of changes in the radio industry and the way radio audiences are measured, stations in this market are being forced to play too much Britney, Puffy and alternative music that is neither new nor cutting edge. Due to these challenges, Indie 103.1 was recently faced with only one option —- to play the corporate radio game.
We have decided not to play that game any longer. Rather than changing the sound, spirit, and soul of what has made Indie 103.1 great Indie 103.1 will bid farewell to the terrestrial airwaves and take an alternative course.
This could only be done on the Internet, a place where rules do not apply and where new music thrives; be it grunge, punk, or alternative - simply put, only the best music.
For those of you with a computer at home or at work, log on to www.indie1031.com and listen to the new Indie 103.1 - which is really the old Indie 103.1, not the version of Indie 103.1 we are removing from the broadcast airwaves.
We thank our listeners and advertisers for their support of the greatest radio station ever conceived, and look forward to continuing to deliver the famed Indie 103.1 music and spirit over the Internet to passionate music listeners around the world.Jeez. Next to KCRW, this was (is) my second favorite radio station.
Me too! I’ll miss it during my LA road trips, but glad to hear they’re going web. Good for them.
