Really, there's already too much information about you on the internet, the last thing you want to do is publicly announce your every move, unless you have a seminar or meeting scheduled why really let people know every corner or every store that your in, technology is good, but it can has bad advantages…

Brian – Did you ever get a response? I am having the same problem. It deletes it off my email on my iphone, but it doesn't delete it from my comcast account so I end up deleting everything twice. I would love to fix this problem

I thnik a "general" location is okay – I'm playing with it now on tweetdeck. It's kind of interesting to see what people around you are tweeting. But I am also not one to tweet every single thing I do. Tweetdeck has a feature that allows me to set the amount of "slack" or "tolorance" for my exact location, which is set to 100 meters. So in my neighborhood that can be any one of a dozen houses. But also key is I do not use my full name, or generally share any personal information. Location or not, people still need to be careful about what they share.

In a College town I've seen foursqare used by the sites that people check into as a way to provide discounts and freebies. I'm wary of that feature as being particularly useful to a business owner because I can check into 5 different restaurants while sitting in my office at work. There has to be some verification technique if prizes are given away, Like showing the waitress your Foursquare App when ordering

Until I figure out why I'm interested I haven't connected my foursquare identity with facebook or twitter

Comment on Chilean quake shortened Earth’s day, but not by much – Los Angeles Times by i zing ting

I am pretty sure the pole shifted first and then the quake happened

just like when an elderly person breaks a hip, it actually happens before a fall and causes the fall, most believe the elderly fall and the the hip breaks

want to avoid the 2012 big shift?
I have the solution and it needs to be implemented asap.

What's the other app that you used to post it with Mike? I've been using Dragon for awhile and love it but I'd like to know the other app so I can use it also for posting to the various blogs that I run or maintain.

HP has had the HP TouchSmart in the market for 3 generations of computers. Its has everything MIke pointed out for NSI PLUS great documentation, support and ability to take cable connections. We love ours and we love that it was designed in the US!
