Holy crap. Just finished doing the initial edit on the 2nd @productpeopletv "episode" (I co-host with @kylefox). It's late!

@ryancarson Interesting that they paid more for Pixar (which came from Lucasfilm) than Lucasfilm itself.

@jayrunham @GermainLussier it is pretty crazy.

@bryanarchy Sweet! Always nice to help out a friend. ;)

Interesting that Disney paid more for Pixar ($7.4 billion) than Lucasfilm ($4 billion). Pixar was originally a division of Lucasfilm.

$4 billion. Is that a good valuation?

@kaziamullin @startupvernon Sweet!

@bikemech_ca so good.

Your workplace is where you get things done. To do good thinking, go somewhere else. http://buff.ly/S5iGJz)

@rjs when you say "variation" are you talking about any deviation from the original vision? Or is it the amount of variety (features)?

@jeff_archibald @patrickkerby @kylefox right on. Looking forward to seeing you guys. (plan on going at least 3 beers deep)

@jeff_archibald @PatrickKerby Hey, @kylefox and I are getting together at Remedy downtown, Nov 1 starting at 6pm. U're welcome to join us!

@beingbrad ha ha. I love it.

@itsdaleconnelly Interesting. What's the challenge you're having right now?

@kaziamullin Nope. You can tell him the Jacksons do that too. ;)

Rainy day pedal into the office today.

@paper_leaf yup! Nov 1-2 for a short jaunt.

@itsdaleconnelly I'm not sure why you mean by "briefing." is this updating a client in an existing project?

@BrockSky yes! I've seen this series before. I def need to re-watch.

@paper_leaf congrats! More business is always nice. ;)

@greggoldring it's a good one, hey? Seth nailed it.

@amyhoy does this mean a product guy shouldn't learn to code?

@yonester oh man. I can't imagine. I have 4 kids, but having two at the same stage. That's crazy!

Productivity tip: start you work, and don't stop until your work is done.

@dhh +1 on this. My 1st gen AppleTV doesn't crash much, but when it does it's such a pain to reset. Terrible user experience.

@kaziamullin geez, what time do you normally get up?

Continually test your assumptions against reality.

@jasonfried are you saying that it's easy to get people to sign-up, but hard to get them to use a product?

We consume links like we consume junk food; we use the web as a way to escape our problems.
