Who would like to buy my first beer?

Server issues seem to be fixed. Moral of the story is Nginx > Apache.

@alex_gaynor The JSON/AJAX is, but caches heavily and backed by a twisted daemon. Long story.
at 3:07pm #
We're stoked to announce that we just launched http://vicarious.ly so you can see what's up at SXSW in real time. (via @simplegeoinc)

@Aubs @sacca @UnitedAirlines rules. I fly them almost exclusively. They have a high quality to price ratio in my opinion.

Just added a @stickybitinc to my carryon luggage. Plan on scanning it at each airport to get tracks of my travels!

@1worldconnects We should be okay with being passed an empty/missing properties. Was it just because properties was a list instead of dict?

@awilkinson @joehewitt Most coders I know are happy to share, distribute, give away, and otherwise duplicate code. Not so much w/ designers.

@awilkinson @joehewitt I think this is indicative of the differences in philosophies between designers and coders.

@julien51 Just for @tweetimages.
at 4:20pm #
I heard from @twitter today that our API limit was drastically increased. Green avatars should be greatly reduced! (via @tweetimages)

Check out my old school setup circa 2001. http://flic.kr/p/7JT7fY

My computer setup circa 2001
My friends at @digg are going steady with Cassandra. http://bit.ly/c0UHsn @simplegeoinc is too!
at 1:23pm #
@MapsRus Static points? Maybe/probably. Handling the amount of points we index an hour, I doubt. Partitioning is no fun either.
at 12:57pm #
Looks like @google has added bike routes to maps! http://bit.ly/cGjDWL
at 12:37pm #
@mweisman Probably not, but it might still be interesting for some of our uses. Thanks for the tip!
at 12:35pm #
Sitting in a webinar put on by @oreilly while @waze chats about their technology. *SUPER* impressed with this stuff.

Can't wait to try out @stickybitsinc powered by my homeboys at @simplegeoinc! Just got my barcodes in the mail. It's on! (via @sacca)

@veritech No problem. My only requirement is that you build cool shit with it.

@dirs Yup. Still having issues. They've *sworn* that a deployment will go out today increasing our limit to 100,000 an hour.

@thekurt I downloaded it today!

@raffi Did @al3x bring his cats into work today?

@indefensible I hope you and your liver have been preparing themselves.

@AntiFreeze Weird. You ended up in the DB. Works on our end too. You've been assimilated though!
at 1:53pm #
Just pushed 1.0.9 of python-oauth2. http://bit.ly/auzYnz Supports multipart/form-data and better oauth_verifier support.

Just got our http://stickybits.com stickers at @simplegeoinc! I attached a "Please return my phone" video to a sticker on my phone.
at 12:24pm #
@tswicegood Sorry about that! Looking forward to the patch. I do know POST works, but I've been doing it with a raw JSON body.
at 11:59am #
@spiky_simon Yeah, they're my favorites. I've seen them a few times. Can't wait to see them again!
at 11:53am #
@tswicegood It should work with anything that httplib2 works with. Happy to accept patches though.

Just booked tickets for Miike Snow, Ok Go!, and Frightened Rabbit this spring in Denver. Yay!

@dkr I think someone you know is working on that already. ;)
at 10:01am #
@keithelder Now that I'm not in Seattle that's probably true. It's like spring break for nerds!

Little known fact is that @simplegeoinc was born at @sxsw last year. http://bit.ly/cMkqcb (via @mager)
at 9:47am #
@kevinowocki Sure is. You can see @occipital's logo on the screen when you scan stuff. Pretty sweet stuff!
at 9:21am #
@npellant I'll have to figure out how to make that work with the CDN. :)
at 8:57am #
@doofdoofsf I assume he saw you riding sans helmet as per usual. ;)
at 8:55am #
@npellant Sounds like what you really want is the ability to set a default avatar, which I think Gravatar supports. I'll look into it.
at 8:54am #
@npellant Non-existent users or images result in a default avatar. 404's = broken images.
