@brennandunn @chase_reeves @CorbettBarr Ahem. I’ll also be in SF July 30 - Aug 2. If we don’t all meet-up, it would be a crying shame.

Making my first trip to San Francisco for #DDC on July 30th - will anyone else be there? https://mixpanel.com/ddc2014/

@iChris I believe it was a random interview show… I think. Or maybe it was Show me your mic?

@rrhoover @gooderdle @SDMattG @JoelleSteiniger @michaelsacca @BenedictEvans @adii good looking group!

@gregorysean haha. I’ve had a few people ask that.

It really depends, doesn’t it?

@natekontny would say tweeting can be creating.

@cezarfloroiu Sweet!

@justinabrahms is it ok if I send you a draft to for a post in writing? I'd love to get your feedback.

Your circumstances affect you, but they don't have to define you.

Because of my vacation I haven't been able to send my newsletter in WEEKS. Hoping to send one tomorrow!

@allanbranch I just had a week away from technology & it really helped.

Just me and my kids at this remote ranch:

@seth_hamilton sending now. ;)

@MSchechter oh, you were one of those weird guys on the local BBS, were you?

;)

@seth_hamilton speaking of RoboBoard, I’d love to do an interview with you for @productpeopletv. You game?

@Beryllium9 me too. I was definitely a BBSer first. ;

@erikgreenwald if I remember correctly, I was a ProBoard and Wildcat BBSer.

I also loved @seth_hamilton’s RoboBoard

@bradpauly awwww yeaaaah!

RT @mannaxc: @mijustin Less: sleep more: coffee :)

@thomasfuchs could be. ;)

Less: talk

More: rock

@Siwicadilly you're welcome man. I'm cheering for you. ;)

@Defstun yes!

@tnorthcutt well that's always on the MORE list ;)

(Until you've had enough)

There isn’t a perfect formula that will bring you success every time.

Instead ask:
Who are you going to help?
What do they need right now?

Less: self-focus

More: other-focus

LESS OF THIS:
Whining.
Stressing.
Complaining.
Procrastinating.
Comparing.
Wishing.
Lazing.

MORE OF THIS:
Creating.

@Beryllium9 lol. Sweet!

@cathodion thanks man! That's a song by @StrikerMetal

@avclark you've got lots of stories to tell. I think you could start now: tell a story every week.

@avclark loved your last newsletter.

You're a good writer (you've got the instincts and the practice [journalism])

@housecor I like this one; do you have a source?

@rrhoover @andrewchen HN suffers from a similar ranking algorithm: new stories that get enough of an initial "bump" will always win.

@gregoiregilbert yup ;)

@gregoiregilbert lol. Maybe!
