    Anybody want to buy our coffee and end tables? http://t.co/KhKNqvUSnq


    @glasnt I bought mine from CX a couple months ago. They appear to have in stock now! http://t.co/vgIyrgTwOT

    They brought him a birthday cupcake. 🙂 http://t.co/51Y864sYSD http://t.co/kgZOyDTbDU


    @Saibhai Yep. Like an Art Deco version of the Great Sept of Baelor from GoT. 🙂


    @Saibhai BTW – you and @the_snook managed to win tonight’s Munchkin!

    Gorgeous. I wonder if you can get prints? (Though that clown one above the sleeping kids is a little scary.) https://t.co/qu9o8gX7LD


    Twitter’s Ill-Timed ‘Frat Party’ http://t.co/N9TlkXRrJi It’s frat boys & warriors & brogrammers all the way down. The Internet is broken.

    OH in the office: “It’s like a war in my mouth between the onion and the chewy, and I think the onion’s winning.” @cliffobrecht HA!


    RT @CallbackWomen: “So for those who say ‘we can’t find enough women speakers for our tech conferences’—” Great recap & speaker list: http…


    Deliberating hosted WordPress for my blog (prompted by @johnallsopp of all people). Thoughts? @pyko @gilmae @lucykbain @snarkyboojum


    Quibb’s founder launches 50/50 Pledge for tech conference speakers – Fortune http://t.co/eDaET9plBD I’m on the list! http://t.co/nkdiLJkYyx


    @gilmae Them hosting it. Paying the $129 for a year.


    Second @canva for Work feature revealed! SO EXCITED FOR THIS LAUNCH. https://t.co/zTIAOrC8uf


    @gilmae Well, it’s gonna take me a non-trivial number of hours to import the old stuff over.


    @gilmae And my current blog CMS, remember, is PHP that I hacked together in 2001.


    @gilmae Every time he looks in the DB, the Snook cringes.


    @gilmae Oh, the fields and such are pretty normal. But I’ve got HTML and shit in there. I guess that shouldn’t matter.


    @venks79 Because I don’t want to do any upkeep or maintenance on it. I’d rather pay somebody else to do that part. 🙂


    @venks79 Does @BroadWebAU want to handle it for me? I’ll put your logo and link on it. 😀

    @venks79 Haha, I’ll knit you a jumper! ;-P


    @venks79 I’ll have a look at themes. Ideally something I can customise to look kind of like the old one.


    Watching video of myself at last @webdirections Respond conference and every “Um, so–” is a DAGGER TO MY HEART.

    @Alegrya @steven_noble Here’s one for him! http://t.co/vkLZUcYjkY And also this, which I backed: https://t.co/ETGf7Bcp2E #knitnerd


    Crafting a healthy brain through Neural Knitworks http://t.co/pVoTBSvy0p Very cool! @KnitGuildNSW http://t.co/Nz8Zu5B8Vj


    @nicwinton @poppiepack Haha, I knew someone would make that joke. We have our own beloved Kiwis in @KnitGuildNSW too. 🙂 @drwitty_knitter


    I am getting way too blasé about hitting the button that emails 3+ million people. 🙂 https://t.co/TDzWiKAroV


    Apologies to everyone in Surry Hills I just blinded with my bare legs. (Get used to it.)

    @julliettajung @JSLouez It was last night! Sorry you missed it. It sold out within the first 24 hours.


    @lucykbain @Atlassian Yum! Don’t ruin your lunch. 🙂


    Just discovered blog has been hacked again. This close to giving up entirely and just having static HTML. I’m so over it.


    @pyko Have you used it? I am now super, super tempted.


    RT @cliffobrecht: This is going to be the best event in the history of events. https://t.co/ATbToB4Am3


    @pyko If you help me set up a Jekyll site, I’ll knit you something 😛


    Jeez. Listened to like 5 minutes of myself from #ggdsyd last night. Somebody ring a bell every time I say “Uh, so!” next time I present. 🙁


    @pyko That is a barter I am well prepared to make!


    @drkknits What does that mean?!


    Never thought I’d see the day where @nickyringland was sharing the stage with Kim Dotcom. *shaking my head*


    GRAR. @GoGet van wouldn’t let us in. Called support, switched to another van. Still no access. On the phone with support again. 🙁


    Aaaaand all @GoGet vans at Central Park have failed. Now we are rushing to Ultimo to try another one.

    Warm muffins for the birthday boy’s breakfast! Orange & Poppyseed is his favourite. http://t.co/jOyvuEZiEz http://t.co/ujTM4TuhGG


    Honestly, the Sydstart branding confounds me. That leering giant photo of Kim Dotcom with finger guns might as well say “NO GURLS ALLOWED”.

    @GoGet We did, but I think I inadvertently got booked into a random car in another suburb. Sent the details through to admin@ this morning.

    In an alternate universe, there’s a Kristy who took the offer from Oberlin instead and has an entirely different life…


    I work for a company that has legitimate fangirls. This is still such a welcome surprise to me! 🙂
