Everyone’s favorite Valley gadfly says via Twitter he’d learn more at a Facebook engineering confab, than at a El Jobso keynote.  Scobes, if you could remain awake at Steve’s keynote addresses, maybe you’d learn more.  Just an FYI, buddy. Namaste.

Consider the story of Paul Chambers. The UK resident wanted to take a holiday trip to Ireland, but couldn’t since his local airport was snowed in. So he decided to Tweet.  Since his Tweets are protected, here’s what he said. “Robin Hood airport is closed. You’ve got a week and a bit to get your s*** together, otherwise I’m blowing the airport sky high!!” The problem with that is, besides being totally stupid, -the police could interpret that as a terrorist threat.  And you bet they did.

The call it Chirp.

Sometime in 2010, they’ll get back to us.

May I be the first to call all attendees : Twirps.

I’m not supposed to talk about this but it’s too good to hold back.

Apple blazing trails again, this time with a gadget that will silence twitterers at will. Regardless of their device.

Imagine the chagrin as the twitter mobs get revved up only to have their peckings dissipate into the ether! What will Scoble do if he can’t tell the world when he’s sleeping. When he’s awake. When he’s being annoying (which face it, is all the time)?

Sweet. Wonder how much Sarah Va-Va-Voom Lacy would pay for this baby?

Maybe we’ll trot it out at the already-sold-out worldwide developers conference.

Maybe not.
