blahdeblahnisshh: yes - i want a desktop app11:27
blahdeblahGwibber is one i know of11:28
blahdeblahIs it any good?11:28
blahdeblahAre there any more?11:28
* blahdeblah installs gwibber and tries it11:29
nisshhblahdeblah, there are HEAPS11:31
blahdeblahnisshh: go on...11:31
nisshhblahdeblah, gwibber choqok i think does twitter11:31
nisshhum11:31
nisshhpino i think does twitter11:32
sagaciHave any stickers left?11:32
nisshhseesmic11:33
blahdeblahsagaci: Still haven't arrived from Canonical11:33
nisshhtweetdeck11:33
nisshhtwidroid <- for android i think11:33
blahdeblahbradm: Any luck finding out how i can stick a rocket up the canonical shop people?  The sticker order has been one big disaster11:33
blahdeblahnisshh: Since when did Ubuntu == Android?  :-P11:33
nisshhfoursquare11:33
nisshhblahdeblah, heh, i typed it then realised :)11:34
nisshhi thought you had an android anyway11:34
nisshh*shrugs*11:34
blahdeblahno11:34
nisshhok11:34
blahdeblahIt appears that gwibber does not support proxy servers - FAIL11:34
nisshhhotot or whatever does twitter as well i thyink11:34
nisshhblahdeblah, yeah, gwibber has a few limitations11:34
* blahdeblah apt-cache searches11:35
nisshhblahdeblah, i cant think of many more off the top of my head, i use Identi.ca see, not twitter11:35
* blahdeblah probably should check out identi.ca, too11:35
nisshhand as such, i use an identi.ca only client11:35
nisshhhead_victim, so, how was LCA today then?11:36
sagaciA geek con11:38
sagaciLike seriously i just didn't know there'd be that many geeks within one joint11:39
nisshhsagaci, hehe11:41
nisshhsagaci, most of them are developer and such, you do realise?11:41
nisshhdevelopers*11:42
sagaciYeah11:42
sagaciI think i was asking for it11:42
nisshhhehe11:43
head_victimsagaci: yeah, it's a little weird for a first time.11:48
sagaciSo what was that newbie session like11:49
head_victimnisshh: was only registration and a talk for newbies (althought despite them saying you SHOULDN"T MISS THIS IF YOU'RE NEW) I got no new information out of it11:49
nisshhhead_victim, ah true11:50
sagaciK, i'm just going to keep a low profile anyhow, i mean i'm not a developer or an anybody. I'm just there to suck it in11:51
nisshhsagaci, no, no, talk to them, devs arent scary :)11:53
blahdeblahTalk to everyone!11:54
head_victimsagaci: I'm there because I could never afford to go unless it's in Brisbane11:54
blahdeblahhead_victim: ditto!11:55
blahdeblahMaybe we should organise a general Ubuntu/newbie BoF...11:55
sagaciIt's like i'm talking english and they're talking C11:55
blahdeblahsagaci: hang in there - come and see me (i'm in L101 as a volunteer for most of the conf) if you need some English!12:02
blahdeblahnisshh: do you use noscript?  I'm trying to work out what i need to allow in order to get identi.ca working12:03
head_victimblahdeblah: actually a lot of my talks seem to be in that room12:04
* blahdeblah beats his head against the identi.ca equivalent of tweeting12:05
dns53blahdeblah what mini conf is there?12:06
sagaciYeah righteo thanks, i'll try to find a space in the schedule12:06
blahdeblahdns53: "plumbing", which mostly seems to be kernel and developer toolchain stuff12:07
dns53you will probably see linus but it's too geeky for me12:07
blahdeblahdns53: what sort of stuff are you going to?12:09
blahdeblahnisshh: what's your identi.ca identity?12:09
sagaciAnyone read the aarnet internet tuning thing12:09
dns53dns but i have not dented for months (but i probably will during the conf)12:09
dns53i'm going to the cloud, mobile and maybe some of the government mini confs12:10
blahdeblahsagaci: link?12:10
blahdeblahdns53: cool12:10
blahdeblahIt seems the twitter->identi.ca feed is much slower than the reverse...12:13
* blahdeblah closes down for the night - see you tomorrow, folks!12:13
head_victimblahdeblah: see you in the morning12:14
dns53cya12:14
