Weather in ATX is so nice today. Biked up to Julio’s for some tacos.
Pleasantly surprised by the quality of Netflix HD streaming through the XBox 360. Looks great even on a big screen. Just needs more content.
Thinking this Twitter / Techmeme integration could do a lot for the latter’s content quality, or at least how quickly it sources stories.
RT @venturevoice: VV Show #53 - David Cohen of TechStars http://bit.ly/UoQP Great episode for anyone interested in seed funding/incubators.

Just finished nerding out on the blog. Long overdue.
Big Screen Netflix via Apple, Microsoft and... →
So, I finally subscribed to Netflix last week. Cable TV has just gotten so bad and I’ve been missing out on a lot of the movies my friends are talking about.
I also joined because you can now …
Success!
Back to Austin.
Crossing fingers and toes that the Mac Mini Ion/Atom rumors are true. Would instantly buy a cheaper Mac Mini with HDMI and full HD out.
After meeting with five tech firms, and despite the beautiful weather, everyone in the valley is talking about clouds.
At Apple, ironically in “The Beatles” conference room.
In San Fran til Sunday.
Does anyone seriously think Arizona can get past New York or Philly? No way.
Texas would have punched both those in. OU sucks!
Is there a hot-key in the OS X version of Firefox to go to your homepage like in the XP version?
Palm Pre is pretty slick. I’m digging it’s web tech underpinnings.
Guessing that Roger McNamee (of Elevation Partners), an advisor to Zuckerberg, is responsible for all the Facebook noise @ the $PALM launch.
Second guessing my decision to sell $PALM on 12/31 to lock in losses for 2008. Still currently priced below my basis, though.
Celebrating @jenny_chilla’s birthday @ Wink.
Macworld has been pretty weak so far. I thought $AAPL would have taken a dive by now.
I was really hoping for a new Mac Mini today. Itching to hook one up to the flat screen, but can’t buy one knowing an update is forthcoming.
