@searchbound Just curious: How do you know when a project fails? Low traffic? Low conversion rates? Something else?

@ar_gou It gets easier tover time. To help me remember the systax, I created https://t.co/0nqBeVLCQT -- maybe it will help you too?

@BRexBets Hey Betsy! I'm a technical writer for Fastly, and I have a couple questions about your CSAT presentation. Could I email you?

[Matt Cone @coner]

@pmenchov @AngelList Thank you!!!

[Matt Cone @coner]

@AngelList I submitted a claim last week for the Offshoot page on AngelList, but you haven't responded yet. Help?

On the edge of glory. I've written 38 out of 40 chapters of "Master Your Mac." Only 2 chapters left to go! But first, dinner with the family

@skorecky Someday maybe we'll both live on a beach in Hawaii. :)

[Matt Cone @coner]

Sick as a dog, and still have 5 chapters to write in 7 days. Whee!

Looking for a quick pick-me-up? Read the comments on your website. Like this one: "Your statement is evidence of your naivety."

@GlennF Perhaps there's a lesson there. You can always find somebody willing to pay for something, even if they can get it for free.

@garyg We rented a Dodge Caliber and everything was just a little off. The shift knob was about 5 inches away from where you expected it.

@mwhancock That's some crazy road trip you're taking.

It's incredible to see how CNET destroyed MacFixIt. There's nothing left except 2-3 sad little posts per week. I miss the old site!

Never thought I'd say this, but I wish I had picked WordPress instead of Drupal for Macinstruct's CMS back in 2007. Live and learn?

[Matt Cone @coner]

I've realized that 8GB of RAM is not enough for me at this point in my life. Only problem is that 16GB for the MacBook Pro is $475. Ouch.

@mwhancock You need to use a proxy or VPN -- http://www.cultofmac.com/get-spotifys-unauthorized-iphone-app-working-in-usa-how-to/56412

@mwhancock Sadly, no Zeppelin. And there are a couple other holdouts. Tool, AC/DC, Kid Rock, etc. Same story everywhere for those bands.

[Matt Cone @coner]

@mwhancock Just tried Rdio. Sound quality is good, interface not bad, but still prefer Spotify's apps. Spotify has 5 million more songs.

[Matt Cone @coner]

@mwhancock I haven't tried #rdio, but @skorecky recommended it to me months ago. Not sure the interface or sound quality can match #spotify.
