• 2 exams down, 1 to go. Time for coffee and some free reading. #
• Decided to follow the better angels of my nature and to finally read Andrew Gelman: “Red State, Blue State, Rich State, Poor State” #
• @metaman @pascal @sliteye Vielen Dank für die Glückwünsche. Das beste wisst ihr aber noch gar nicht: habe eben DVD mit restaurierter (…) #
• @metaman@metaman @pascal @sliteye (…) Fassung von Truffaut’s “La mariée était en noir” gefunden. Life is very good! #
• @sliteye Hoffe nur die anderen MGM Truffaut DVDs werden ebenfalls überarbeitet und neu aufgelegt. Da gibt es noch einiges zu entdecken #
• @airwalk Kein Problem. Der Hauptautor hat auch einen sehr guten PoWi Blog: http://bit.ly/9skuw #
• @airwalk Nebenbei, eben in der Prüfung konnte ich John Elsters “Reason and Rationality” unterbringen. Die Lektüre lohnt sich also #
• @sliteye Keine Sorge, nach der Abgabe der Arbeit geht alles erstaunlich/erschreckend flott #
• If this http://tinyurl.com/lqnclv is an indicator “Public Enemies” is gonna be on my Top5 Film-List of 2009 http://tinyurl.com/c7m29e #
• Just saw http://www.pierrotlefou.de DVD of “La mariée était en noir” by Truffaut: Massive improvement to the old MGM DVD + nice audio commentary. #

• @pascal At least you got your high-traffic-topic sample #
• @pascal Nice. You are by now probably the most verbal fan of the book. #
• Starting 2morrow I have 3 days of free reading. Undecided. Either Elster: “Explaining Social Behavior” or Gelman: “Red State, Blue State…” #
• Of course I could choose an altogether different path & finally read “Boss Tweed” by Ackerman. Maybe then I’ll understand politics in Mainz. #

• Today of all days my Espresso macchinetta broke … Ah, well new beginnings #
• @simoncolumbus Viel Glück! Das wird #
• @metaman War eher ne entspannte Angelegenheit. Ein paar Leute mit gelben T-Shirts und 50cent Bieren waren zwar unterwegs, aber das war’s. #
• One exam down, two to go. More importantly though, I has a new Espresso macchinetta! #
• RT @DigiActive: “is this a twitter revolution?” debate is unnecessary & quite tiring. tech & social media is useful but let’s not lose focus #
• Thanks @DigiActive truer words were seldom twittered #
• @simoncolumbus I guess everyone is happy because they found a new toy & it’s shiny and makes strange sounds. Also, if I can talk about … #
• @simoncolumbus … Twitter I don’t have to engage in a serious debate about Iran. And who wants that if one can play with avatars? #

• RT @GreatDismal: I don’t know about the revolution, but “the fog of war” will definitely be Twittered. #

• Just back from #Terminator-Salvation: Mixed experience. Narration: #fail Franchise-Restart: Not so much. Design: Great. … #
• … The film has a great #fallout feeling going (which is never a bad thing). Should also be fun for #peak-oil devotees. #

• @drbieber re: #rauschen Oder: “Smarties-Noise” bzw. US-konform “Skittles-Noise”? #
• @_tillwe_ @drbieber Klasse, dann brauchen wir uns bloss eine “Social Media” Farbe rauszusuchen … #
• @_tillwe_ @drbieber … wobei das dann wohl wieder einen Beitrag zur Begriffs-Begründung braucht #
• @Oliverheil Das ist wirklich ein schönes Beispiel. Wir sehen halt doch nur, was wir vorher schon kennen #
• @drbieber Auch “Qualitätsjournalismus” scheint vor Primärbedürfnis-Metamophorik nicht gefeit. Nur gut, dass die 1klassig ausgebildet sind:-) #
