    This whole American-dude-food trend is starting to bore even me. MILLER IS NOT A GOOD BEER, PEOPLE. http://t.co/GJxFz1nCgL


    @thisismywww @scalzi I was pretty much joking. I know that @jkottke’s archives go back to March ’98, so he’s got me beat right there.


    Telstra opens first public API to developers http://t.co/G2AYr3Tc8a // Whoa, that’s really cool @frankarr!


    @frankarr I’m now trying to figure out a cool way to play with it, maybe some sort of home automation trigger? That could be cool.


    @frankarr Hahahaha… “A sample application has been developed to illustrate how you might … send an SMS to someone named Frank…”


    @frankarr Ooh. Ooh. I just had an idea. Company hackathon coming up. This could be interesting!


    @gilmae PBR is the worst. But sadly, that place is late to the game. My lovely little local in Chippo has it too. Ugh.

    @gilmae @redambition That sounds like Wuss Talk. Empathy is for suckers. (Guess how my morning’s going?)


    @redambition @gilmae People learning to HTFU is the answer. 😛


    @redambition @gilmae Meh. Just tired of grown people who act like they’re still in high school, you know?


    @randomknits That would explain a lot!

    Quite a full house tonight at #GGDSyd. (That’s Louis. He’s new.) @ Atlassian http://t.co/Z71ZGv4ZTl


    Learning about creativity (and how not to be a wanker) from @tashj. #GGDSyd http://t.co/ZOUbVKwLgi


    Huh. Mozart is best for creativity. Bach and Beethoven, not so much. #GGDSyd


    RT @GGDSydney: @web_goddess rocking it @Atlassian #ggdsyd Feb meetup http://t.co/SQH4TlxZco


    @helarious_ Haha, just realised you said hello to me earlier! I am THE WORST at linking real people to Twitter profiles. 🙂


    @tashj Thank you! I loved your talk. I felt bad about following up INSPIRING CREATIVITY with banner ads. 🙂


    RT @tashj: So @web_goddess is making me laugh a lot about the history of banner adverts at @GGDSydney http://t.co/nmyz83G1WM


    @LizlingC Thank you! It was gratifying to see a few folks nodding in recognition. These whippersnappers… 🙂


    Anyone know Clara’s Twitter name? Her talks are always mind-blowing! #GGDSyd http://t.co/wvrFblIoCa


    “You don’t just place these vertices anywhere. They’re linearly interpolated, you know what I mean?” Clara is SO AWESOME. #ggdsyd


    If you want to learn more about the “first” banner ad, this site is fantastic: http://t.co/InSiYsLsrB #GGDSyd @tashj


    And at the other end of the timeline, here’s the Guardian’s overview of their new responsive ad formats: http://t.co/9uQviANuJ4 #ggdsyd


    @hehalana Thank you! I’am glad you found it interesting. Always hard to know how a topic like ads will be received! 🙂

    @kakaCharlotte Thanks Charlotte! Your support and enthusiasm is always much appreciated. 🙂


    “Thanks for an awesome talk on banner ads” is definitely up there with the highest praise I’ve ever gotten in my career. 😀 #ggdsyd


    I mean, I kind of expect that phrase to be followed up with “…said no one, ever.” Right?


    @alinavan Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Definitely lots of people doing interesting things. Will be cool to see what sticks.
