Im not sure why I decided to do this, but I have.

If you have time, I ask that you take this quick *….deleted link……*

In the next few days I will tally the results and share the how, where and why that people use Twitter.

Thanks,

Daver

UPDATE - 8/6/2008

I plan to keep this short as the venue is nothing special… but the parking? The parking is horrible. I have had to park blocks and blocks away and they still charge you an insane amount.

If you dont know where the Sears Centre is? It is some 45-50 miles outside of Chicago. Yes, it will take you a full hour and more to drive into the Loop. Yet the Sears Centre charges more for parking then they do at Wrigley Field almost.

The Rosemont Horizon… errr AllState Center charges 10-20$ for parking, yet every concert at the Sears Centre charges $20. Why? The Sears Centre is technically out in the sticks and has fields, farms, and some industrial parks around it. They still charge you, sorry, gouge you for parking.

I have started to boycott concerts there simply due to the crazy parking fees.

I would love to see the Shamrox play there, but if they charge me $20 to park there, I will simply go home.

Sorry Sears Centre, this is your Sears Centre review and you fail. Stop with the gouging for parking.

Today I am very glad that I am not such a Fan boy of Apple. On Twitter all I have heard about are the following:

• ibrick
• “Checked 2 AT&T stores… lines were about 50 deep at both. Not bad, but I’m not gonna go outta my way.” via @kiddisco
• “Quick, someone make an iPhone fail whale!” via @steverubel
• Apple’s iPhone 2.0 update is failing (Matt Asay/The Open Road) http://tinyurl.com/5mjjhw via@Techmeme
• “@jasonegan #apple. My phone is essentially bricked since the Apple Store is having problems and I can’t complete the restore process” @omomyid
• “iBrick is one of the top words on Twitter today. Deja vous. http://summize.com/search?q=iBrick” via @steverubel
• “Glad I CAN’T get a new iPhone today. Must wait for the latest unlock/jailbreak app before I can even upgrade to 2.0. No rush. T-Mobile FTW!” @clintus

Besides @rustybrick and @photoboy via Twitter, I cant recall a single good thing about today + Apple + AT&T + iphone.

Happy Friday!!!

UPDATE…

So here we are on Saturday and the iphone chatter has not died down. The funny part is that most of it is still negative. Oops Apple/AT&T did it again.

• “I tell ya . . . this single computer synch thing with the iPhone is really annoying. Especially since I 1st synched it with my work comp.” @BrentDPayne
• ” burlingame iphone wait: 3-4 hours…is it really worth waiting for?…guess I could just put in the 3G card & work while hanging out…hmmm” @TonyAdam
• “@coplandmj For me, it isn’t even the price. It’s the fact that they aren’t waiting for something that has any unique value that is finite.” @GregBoser
• ” Retweeting @coplandmj: Favourite this tweet if you’re reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally sick of hearing about iPhones.” @GregBoser
• ” Two hour line for iPhones at my local mall.” @steverubel

To be fair I thought I would post some positives about the iphone but found very few. I had to go all the way back to page 9 to find just this one:

• ” Holy jeebus these iPhone apps are rad!” @missrogue

Glad I didnt camp out to get one

Another day, another Twitter Application. TweetDeck is built much like Twirl in that it is build on the Adobe Air platform, but little else appears to be the same.

TweetDeck has all of the same options you can get in the web version of Twitter, or in applications such as Twirl, Twitterfox, or a Twitterlicious. You can Re-tweet, Direct Message, and Reply to anyone of your friends. It is missing the “Save to Faves” functionality at this time but I imagine that it will be added at some point.

TweetDeck does some have some great features that you may be interested however:
