Desperate to put my boys to bed, I'll sing a lullaby about anything they want: ♫ Good night kitty. Good night bear. Good night zombie head ♫

@ChrisLaBossiere @bandbswineclub also has a great article on leading leaders: http://bobperkinsconsulting.blogs.com/bob_perkins_consultin/2007/09/september-2007-.html

@ChrisLaBossiere my friend @bandbswineclub says: "Every problem is a people problem and every solution is a people solution"

@ChrisLaBossiere biggest challenge(s)? I'm going to guess HR.

@StephenKiers is there a job board, or are people pitching opportunities from the front?

@amyhoy I honestly had no idea that "Gator Ribs" was even a thing. Did you take a picture?

Seriously: whoever invented the bunk bed never had to put sheets on it.

@amyhoy ... how were they?

@brennandunn even worse: what's in it for the business owner?

@christiannaths @brennandunn this presentation by Gail has some good stuff in it: http://businessofsoftware.org/2013/02/gail-goodman-constant-contact-how-to-negotiate-the-long-slow-saas-ramp-of-death/ (navigating the SaaS ramp of death)

@dquail you're welcome! Wish I could be at DemoCamp to see it in action.

@thedannorris You're not the only one. ;) I think that process is ridiculous (and frankly, insulting).

"Why Startups Should Choose Canada Over Silicon Valley" great post by @dquail http://buff.ly/14ZYSkd

@sprintly Hey, is search broken right now? Getting error "Cannot load cadence graph"

My answer to What are some popular applications using WordPress as a web application platform for non-blogging uses? http://qr.ae/TSgVR

@amyhoy it's true. ;) I wonder if the mag publishers + gum people have good data on this. @kylefox how do data people determine causation?

@MattGoldman_SD I'm trying this out now.

@amyhoy It resonated with me because anecdotally it's what I'm seeing in checkout lanes. ;) But you're right: I couldn't find any hard data.

@MattGoldman_SD whoa! This is a great find. How are the reports?

Just discovered that @Sprintly supports animated GIF attachments. This changes everything. Sample for completed item: http://images.wikia.com/icarly/images/3/39/Blaine_Oh_Yeah!.gif

@kdnewton @bikemech_ca I think we'll go every two weeks. ;) Next Tuesday!

@Evanish @kylefox good cost of living, beautiful weather... but far from being the startup capital of the world. ;)

David Letterman is the true king of late-night comedy @jimmyfallon is good too. If I could subscribe to either show electronically, I would.

@joel_stainer eventually: a book + screencasts. Shouldn't be over your head; we'll start with an email about what MVP is.

@amyhoy well done; really enjoyed it.

@Evanish the problem with the "work ridiculous hours" philosophy: there aren't any studies that correlate between more hours = results

@scdaustin @dchymko I disagree on this one. PDF book on iPad Mini is a great experience. I got rid of all my paper books last summer.

@joestump has anyone used Annotations with TeamCity? @kylefox

@joestump I will. First we gotta nail the GitHub integration, then that.

@joestump Sweet. Seriously, really motivating. I've already had two conversations about us implementing deploys API. ;)

Chatting with @joestump always motivates me to want to ship more stuff.

@brcallander so good.

@Jonflarson thanks! I can't believe it's been that long.

@kevinhorek thanks man.

@bikemech_ca ha ha, yeah. All the locals call that place "cursed" because it's never been open longer than 6 months. ;)
