Tim Jackson asks Jun 09, 2008 06:49PM I just gotta know; did anything else happen anywhere in the world today *OTHER* than a new freakin' iPhone? Just curious; flood, famine, war
glenstansberry says Jun 09, 2008 06:49PM possibly... but unfortunately the Apple world is bigger than the rest of the world, at least to Americans
Tim Jackson Jun 09, 2008 06:52PM I'm sorry to be an asshole here; but he's not a freakin' prophet and the phone is well... a phone. It's cool, yes, but...
glenstansberry says Jun 09, 2008 06:54PM agreed Tim. While I do love me some Apple, I don't love it *that* much. It's incredible to see their following though... you gotta admit
Tim Jackson Jun 09, 2008 06:55PM Totally- all they need is purple jumpsuits and Nikes. I'm just an ass today- I should unplug from the world for a few hours.
marywallace says Jun 09, 2008 06:58PM prob is if your old iphone is dead and you have 2 yr contract and want a damn phone, they pulled all iphones for 2 mos so now you wait again
glenstansberry says Jun 09, 2008 07:25PM Tim, your question was inspiration for a post I just wrote: lifedev.net/2008/06/the-apple-keynote-leaves-one-question-what-are-you-living-for/
MackCollier says Jun 09, 2008 07:45PM well we are all missing the world's first Plurk-up tonight hosted by annhandley and chrisbrogan
Tim Jackson Jun 09, 2008 07:58PM glenstansberry I commented on the post and I thank you for putting up w/ my cranky mood today.
Beth Harte says Jun 09, 2008 08:17PM I am sad about missing the Plurk-up. I so wanted to be at the conference this week.
MackCollier says Jun 09, 2008 09:10PM I know bethharte so many friends and SM experts will be speaking. I aint gonna miss the next one tho
germaine says Jun 10, 2008 01:47AM omgosh... seriously... I got like a million tweets all about it... I lie not a million... I am an exaggerator
KDFrawg says Jun 10, 2008 01:52AM yes, people died, were extorted from, the global warming problem and deforestation got worse, etc. But, you know, the iPhone is a big deal.
tojosan thinks Jun 10, 2008 01:53AM there were some folks killed by both storms and floods, but hey, did they do it with 3G and at $199?
Tim Jackson says Jun 10, 2008 01:53AM kdfrawg No shit? Damn. Guess I should buy a few of them. I hear their Supreme Leader is really cool; people hang on his every word.
KDFrawg says Jun 10, 2008 01:58AM I met him a few times back when he was nobody. I was underwhelmed, proving how little I know.
Tim Jackson says Jun 10, 2008 02:02AM kdfrawg- nah, you were right; he's human, not a Prophet. germaine- yeah, I get that & like the products, but does it really merit it all?
Tim Jackson says Jun 10, 2008 02:05AM exactly. I had a crappy day, admittedly, but the hype around these things (Apple or not) sincerely makes me wanna scream. It's a PRODUCT.
germaine says Jun 10, 2008 02:08AM it annoys me too... just like who the hell cares what britney is doing
Tim Jackson says Jun 10, 2008 02:09AM EXACTLY! Seriously- no wonder the world is screaming headlong into a steaming pile of shit! UGH! UGH! UGH! UGH!
KDFrawg says Jun 10, 2008 02:37AM The two of you are singing my song. Which is good, for I am a horrible singer.
