I need a WP plugin that lists comments by user on the dashboard, just as the user panel gives you access to posts by user. Any suggestions?
I am precariously close to caught up. This whole 25-hour day thing ROCKS. #yesiposteditfromthewrongaccountthefirsttime
Remembering why I love the first weeks of standard time: got up at 5.30 and am now down to inbox=4 and 4 items to go on today's to-do list.
Looking for folks whose institutions have outsourced faculty email to MSLive/Gmail. Would like to hear up- and downsides of your experience.
Replying to @jbj
I'm going to be at MSA in Montreal, too.
Replying to @ddchamberlain
Gmail? or other? And by "in-between period" do you mean the actual transfer or having students/fac-staff on diff services?
Replying to @amandafrench
Yeah, I think so. *sigh*
Replying to @ddchamberlain
Gotcha - that's good to know.
Just testing the new MediaCommons status system. Carry on.

Count me in for #mlatweetup. \(I begin to see a use for lists\.\)
@nowviskie/dh-mla-tweetup What I keep hoping for in lists is the ability to @ a whole group of folks at once. Doesn't work, does it?
Can't tell. The list is clickable as a list on the web, but Tweetie doesn't recognize it, for all the obvious reasons.
Replying to @briancroxall
The key would be for an @ reply to a list you follow appearing like an @ reply to you, I think. That would be super useful.
Replying to @nowviskie
I hope so - there almost have to be. Thanks for gathering the list, however it works out!
Replying to @briancroxall
Absolutely. I do not want to follow my students. I would like to follow my classes. *Big* difference.
Replying to @amandafrench
Very cool! I'll look forward to hearing more about it.
Replying to @michaeldroy
Need an invitation? I can send you one. It'll take a while to process, but at least it'll be on the way.
Replying to @nancybaym
Having been through the same thing in California \(with even closer percentages\), I've got enormous empathy, too.
Replying to @michaeldroy
There seem to be a ton: if you search "with:public educause" you'll find way more than you're looking for...
LAX > CLE > YUL > MSA
In digital modernism seminar at #MSA11. Brain and body both painfully aware that it's 5 am.
About to begin roundtable on new forms of the book. #msa11

Replying to @lisallynch
Hmmm. Let me look into it & get back to you - sorry for the error!
Replying to @lisallynch
Ugh. "More about me" seems broken, and I think there's a permissions issue with your activity stream. Have alerted the cavalry.
Working at home today, and really, really enjoying it.
@lisallynch Still working on 'more about me' in Firefox, but the activity issue should be fixed...
Replying to @jschneider
Semantic info is included in our development plan. Thanks for the feedback!
Replying to @billwolff
Wish I could take credit; it's the work of our awesome developers at NYU.
Replying to @jschneider
Not at this stage, I'm afraid; I'm hopeful that we may be able to publish something before long.
Replying to @amandafrench
Sending good jobfinding vibes your way...
RT @openhumanities: THE Open Access cover story + features! Story about OA books > http://bit.ly/3zIyPH - all-in-all very supportive of OA.
THE feature just posted mentions \(but does not link to\) Planned Obsolescence! \(So I'll link: http://bit\.ly/37LV7P\)
At the airport. At 5.30 am. Again.
RT @shanakimball Great THE feature on #openaccess books; @openhumanities, @kfitz, @striphas quoted. http://bit.ly/3zIyPH
More coffee, please.
On the plane, about to depart EWR on the long trip home. My favorite part is watching the Linux-based video system boot.
Never let it be said that I leave things until the last minute; I have uploaded my #DH2010 abstract with 1hr, 52min, 31sec to go.
Replying to @historying
Cool! I'll cross my fingers for you, too.
Replying to @mamamusings
It's amazing, isn't it? My jaw dropped when Mail autodiscovered my account from my address after I upgraded to SL.

Gee. Student w/serious writing problems has 11th hr change of term paper topic. Guess they found something more interesting to write about.
Man, I have a day full of meetings and come home to discover that there's a new DH journal & I'm on its editorial board: http://bit.ly/5GnAy
Which is to say: you rock, @dancohen. Go @dhnow!

Replying to @loganpoppy
Dude, you have been completely cracking my shit up all afternoon.
Replying to @briancroxall
Congratulations! Fantastic news - will look forward to seeing you there.
Replying to @phdaisy
The good news is they're going out LOTS faster than they were originally; I sent a couple last week that were activated w/in a day.
Gah! Xmas+MLA plane tickets are going to be $900+, and I've got no institutional support for the trip. You're killing me, Continental!
Replying to @2xlp
Can't work: it's ONT-MSY-PHL. No JetBlue out of ONT anymore, no Virgin anywhere, cheapest SW is just under $900. So I'm just screwed.
Being way less productive and focused working at home today than I need to be; time to head to the coffee house down the block, I think.
Replying to @stephanietomlin
Are they lost on the server or on your computer? I had to rearrange things b/c of a hacker...

Two classes, one w/ 33 and one w/ 13. The big one is really too big, but I'm too much of a softie.
@mmwwah About. Freaking. Time.

Speaking of #aoir, I find myself unreasonably annoyed by this: http://bit.ly/7sm21b - as though no one's been doing it for 10yrs!

There's the genius of the digital-only syllabus. What error? 0:-)
So is The Postal Service's "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" back in rotation? I've heard it twice in two days, in two different places.

I'm imagining whole new campaigns now. "FedEx: When it absolutely, positively, has to get there. Period."
Two things, the first cool: just got a new Magic Mouse, and it's really as amazing as I thought it would be.
The second creepy: someone on the college network is searching my blog for keywords like married, husband, boyfriend, sex, and so forth.
\(Though at least after coming up empty on "husband" and "boyfriend," they searched "girlfriend\."\)
Replying to @amandafrench
Probably something like that, yeah. It just comes as enough of a surprise that I leapt to creepiness.
Made an awesome batch of Tuscan white bean & greens soup yesterday, which I'll be eating all week, until I make the Thanksgiving gumbo. Yum!
Replying to @GeorgeOnline
I started from this http://bit.ly/6RDfCn but added smoked sausage and used heartier greens \(a turnip/mustard/collard mix\). YUM

Hear, hear. I absolutely cannot function without #1Password anymore. Here's hoping they add #chrome support soon.
Replying to @1Password
Thank you for the reply! No timeframe necessary; I'll be patient, I swear. :)
@unsworth How awful, for everyone. I'm so sorry.
Thankful to have R. here this weekend. Also thankful for the long weekend and the light I begin to glimpse at the end of the tunnel of work.
Gumbo is gumbificating. Happy Thanksgiving, all.
My first external HD was 100MB, and cost something like $200, IIRC. I just bought a 1.5TB drive for $100. Mind, blown. http://bit.ly/7KP2Qd
Have finally finished commenting on the term paper drafts. Please, please, please let this make final grading easier.
RT @openhumanities: Interesting discussion re Open Access versus Open Process http://bit.ly/7t9tcY

I'm with you; my students have invariably checked out after Thanksgiving.
OUP Journals: your system keeps rejecting my credit card as expired when I have clearly put in a 2012 expiry date. Did this last year, too.
I just generated a #TweetCloud out of a year of my tweets. Top three words: post, blog, thanks - http://w33.us/3qqa
For better or for worse, that seems about right.
This morning did not begin well. And I am now way more cranky and short-tempered than I ought to be. #hopingisnapoutofit

You got it. After all, the term paper drafts are done and I have a fun week of teaching ahead. What could be so bad? #stupidemail
