@SeanMcTex thanks, it was a couple months ago but this whole thing with Kathy Sierra brought it to mind again.
Had a long chat with my daughter after her chat-app experience, still don't really know how to explain it, except that #peopleareawful
My daughter installed a teen-chat app on her phone and was immediately propositioned and asked to disrobe. Came to me in tears.
I said I stand with @seriouspony. But I didn't when Kathy was still here, and I'm sorry. Thinking of my 13-year old daughter now.
Does this exist? Decent sub-$100 game-style headset that can also be used with an iphone for calls? (Calling @nimby and friends)
Thank you @davewiner for 20 years of blogging, for sticking with it and encouraging us to, and for championing real internet publishing.
@mrgan yeah that's fair - that tweet sort of wandered away from me. Anyone can learn but is it fair to say some personalities lean that way?
@lmorchard I like curmudgeonly capaldi - after 1200 years the Doctor has earned a few "get off my lawn"s
@mrgan @fullbright I don't judge people who don't see it - that sort of visual sense can be learned but is helped starting with a good eye.
