greg-gand I don't use Gmail web interface18:18
brouschIRC and Gtalk via pidgin18:18
jjesseyou guys chat a lot w/ different people?18:20
brouschInfrequently18:20
brouschSome people aren't on IRC18:20
jjessei take my comment back, i use Lync at work for voice calls, unified messaging and all that18:20
jjessebut that is work18:20
snap-lI use it to chat with JoDee from time to time18:21
snap-lor talk with people who aren't on IRC>18:21
snap-lMost of the time you all are on here, so that's no biggie18:21
snap-land work is it's own Jabber service.18:21
jjesseinteresting18:21
snap-lThin g is, we don't have Facebook accounts, so that's not an option for us18:22
snap-lI deleted mine when it was apparent that Facebook was looking to track me on all sites.18:22

jjessethanks18:26
snap-lThat and ...18:27
snap-l"I think we blew him up"18:27
jjesseah snap-l i wish i could delete ffacebook, too many friends and family use it as the primary mode of converstation18:27
snap-l80% ot 20%?18:27
snap-ls/ot/or/18:27
jjesseof my friends?18:27
snap-lof your conversations that you care about.18:27
jjesse30% and depending on what is happening politically less18:28
jjessewhich is why i've muted most of them18:28
snap-lyeah, it wasn't easy to close out my account18:28
snap-llots of converations with people I went to school with, etc.18:28
snap-lbut it's not like I keep it a secret of how to get a hold of me18:29
snap-land funny enough, few people do18:29
snap-lso it's a two way street. :)18:29
snap-lhttp://decafbad.net/about/18:29
snap-l^- Complete stalker guide18:29
jjessethe funny thing is i've talked more to relatives that i never really knew before they are on facebook18:31
snap-lYeah, same here.18:31
jjesseand now i'll communicate with them over silly stuff we have in common that i never really knew18:31
snap-lpoint being if you're not on facebook, would you maintain the conversation?18:31
jjessenope18:31
snap-land is it important enough for you to hang on to maintain the converasation?18:31
jjesseright now yes, which is why i deal w/ FB knowing everything about my life18:32
jjessegoogle does18:32
jjesseso why shouldn't facebook18:32
snap-lAnd is the time investment they're extracting from you wotrth it?18:32
snap-lNot picking on you in particular. ;)18:32
jjesseno i don't feel like you are picking on me18:33
jjesselook the service is free right? (in some extent)18:33
jjessei don't pay to use it18:33
jjesseso i have to give something up for it18:33
jjessejust like w/ Google18:33
snap-lBut is your time free. :)18:33
jjessehell no18:33
snap-lI'm also in the same boat with Google Plus18:33
jjessei am choosing what to  do w/ my time18:33
snap-lbut I find interesting things on there18:33
snap-land mute the rest.18:33
jjesseagree18:33
jjessei enjoy G+ a lot more than FB18:34
flipsidecreationG+ seems to have better content than FB18:34
flipsidecreationbut I don't have the same friends on both18:34
brouschThat's just because all of your inbred relatives haven't found it yet18:34
jrwrenits because my crazy family isn't on G+, they are on FB18:34
flipsidecreationI have most people muted on FB as well18:35
snap-lit's because you can also put your crazy family in circles. :)18:35
flipsidecreationdoesn't everyone on G+ have a circle called "Non Value Adding"18:36
snap-lTechnology Blabbermouths for a few louder folks18:38
snap-land a politics circle with the volume down low18:38
flipsidecreationI use FB chat to talk to my friends and customers because they use it.  I have no specific love for FB but they do seem to own the market.  Google chat has some catching up to do.18:39
brouschI have never used FB chat18:40
flipsidecreationthey have done a great job with integrating the group conversations with their chat heads system on android.18:41
jjessechat heads seems to work quite well18:43
brouschThere is no one on FB chat that I want to talk to who isn't already on irc or gtalk18:43
flipsidecreationI communicate with my customers via FB chat, much better than texting18:44
brouschWhat business are you in?18:46
flipsidecreationIT Services & Computer repair18:52
brouschAh, like for a bunch of small businesses or residential?18:52
flipsidecreationyeah, a lot of small business and we do residential service as well18:52
jrwrenis this Larry Page?18:56
jrwrenit is Larry. Wow. very impressive19:00
flipsidecreationI think I have heard of that Larry Page guy...19:01
flipsidecreationlet me GOOGLE his name and see what comes up....19:01
jrwreni have never heard him speak that I recall and didn't recognize him.19:02
jrwrenI like his message.19:02
jjesseso my question is how fast do these people that live blog (like the verge) type19:11
jjessewow19:11
rick_h_ok, back to lawn mowing. Good couple of hours. Bummed to miss CHC tonight.19:15
rick_h_my poor dad is going to arrive with me in full geek mode driven by IO19:15
brouschI love to see my kid in full geek mode.19:17
=== dzho_ is now known as dzho
flipsidecreationit has been great  teaching my daughter how to load mods in minecraft.  She got the geek gene19:20
brouschIt is not a gene. It is her father being excited about something and being willing to share19:21
jjesse+1 to brousch19:21
jjessemy dad was into computers, he has 3 sons19:21
jjessei'm the only one who got into computers19:22
jjessebecause it was something my dad and i could bond over19:22
jjessemy other 2 brothers enjoyed time w/ my father over different things19:22
flipsidecreationdunno, my dad did nothing but try to get my to hunt and fish, I preferred to stay and write programs for my TRS-8019:22
flipsidecreationI am the only non-redneck in my family19:24
flipsidecreationSo I would say there is some type of Geek Gene19:24
greg-gwait, they're killing xmpp?19:32

greg-gjust something the twitters told me19:33
jjesseon the desktop19:33
greg-gjrwren retweeted it (xmpp killing)19:33
snap-lI'm taking a wait-and-cautious approach21:34
snap-lBut removing XMPP support is not on my list of things to endear me to Google21:35
waldo323_snap-l, agreed!21:38
snap-lBu thten again, this would also coincide with blocking invites via XMPP21:39
greg-galso, I'm really happy I already did my transition to self-hosted xmpp this past year21:40
greg-gnener nener[D[D[De[D[D[D[D[D[D[De21:41
