Jeffrey’s Twitter Updates for 2011-07-20

Finally just caught up with my ironing. First time in a week and a half that there is nothing in the apt that needs ironing. #
@aeratcliffe Welcome to #BERA as well! #phdchat #
@scottwdavis @aspatriarca That reminds me of Laurel Richardson's work on Writing as a Method of Inquiry #phdchat #
@alexdenhaan Not sure I am following what you are asking. Can you describe it a bit more? #phdchat #
@aeratcliffe @dbaQ8 Agreed. Attending alone does not a community of practice make. #phdchat #
@ndcollier Agreed. #Scrivener is so powerful that its potential is much more than we may expect from a "writing" program like Word #phdchat #
@aeratcliffe Welcome to #AERA May your experience be more personal than mine for my first year! #phdchat #
@savasavasava How quaint. #
@ZabarsHouseware French Italian for a paper cone filter is my option. I buy and grind 4 pounds at a time. Fantastic coffee. #
@lindathestar @savasavasava Thanks! #
We just had a poster accepted for the Gerontological Society of America conference in November. #
Off to Zabar's to get the best coffee in #NYC #
Well, time to off to work. #
@DrEd101 @aeratcliffe Alas, once we lose the idealism, all is lost. #
@DrEd101 @aeratcliffe In theory, yes. In practice . . . I can only wish. #
@webnemesis Sounds like wonderful progress. Good for you!! #
@Toffeemen68 I really like your avatar. Among the more interesting ones I have seen. #
@ai1sa Goodness, where did the real Ailsa go!? #
@ScholarAtLarge @aeratcliffe As long as we anonymize them 😉 #phdchat #
@aeratcliffe @dbaQ8 Delicious to see the world as areas for further research, rather than problems to be solved, ehh? #phdchat #
@dbaQ8 @aeratcliffe However, I am here thinking about hash # uses on Twitter, such as #phdchat and not Twitter in general. #
@dbaQ8 @aeratcliffe I do not see #LinkedIn as a CoP as I understand its focus to be about jobs and networking = self-focused use #phdchat #
@cambgirl @kiwicito @aeratcliffe @NSRiazat @lizith Post away. #phdchat #
@cambgirl @kiwicito @aeratcliffe @NSRiazat The wiki http://bit.ly/oByy0Q was created by @lizith as a service to the #phdchat community. #
@DrEd101 @aeratcliffe Agreed. However, change is a shifty thing that is at times quite painful in its implementation #phdchat #
@kiwicito @aeratcliffe I rely on Twitter for the little bit of contact I have with the larger world, and #phdchat is my support connection. #
@andycoverdale Thanks for sharing that. I vaguely recalled hearing about it, though could not locate it. How did it go? #
@Zimbarama Change can be good. #
@kiwicito @aeratcliffe I know I would not be this far along if left to my own devices #phdchat #
@Zimbarama Did you change your avatar? #
@Zimbarama @RogerShave Welcome to #phdchat We look forward to hearing about your research. #
Just saw a commercial for DiGiorno Pizza and Cookies in the same box. Now I am not a health nut, but come on folks . . . #
@christiepooh No liquid lunch for you tomorrow! #
@kiwicito @aeratcliffe No oops; we are all busy people. This #phdchat sharing is what community and support are all about. #
@savasavasava Ouch. #
@kiwicito @aeratcliffe #phdchat has one; it is a wiki – http://bit.ly/lOsQrF #
@LeadKJWalters I suppose so; additionally, it allows for elements in the rest of life to proceed. #
I have just not been able to focus on my research this evening. I think I needed some down time. #
@aeratcliffe Great quote from 3 folks I admire (along with their work). #phdchat #
RT @chronicle: So long, Elsevier: Why libraries abandon megadeals with publishers in favor of individual journ… (cont) http://deck.ly/~A2GB2 #
@mark_carrigan Yes, that is an easy career move after all??? #
@LambdaLiterary Goodness, that seems somewhat harshly stated. #
RT @nprnews: As Leadership Changes, So Could Afghanistan Strategy http://n.pr/q3Yjru // What a surprise? Of course leadership changes things #
@savasavasava Tell me, were you ever able to figure out why the Queen of England is still on the Canadian currency? #
@MikeStorrings Most excellently stated. Alas, I will need some of that cheer I suppose. Mulled wine tastes good at any time of the year, eh? #
@savasavasava Welcome back to the land of freedom and safety. Goodness; almost had you on that one! #
@savasavasava Fly safely. Hey, are you Tweeting from the air? #
@savasavasava Flip side? #
What happened to TweetDeck for iP@d? It is nowhere to be found. #
@qui_oui Alas, those are the days before critical theory. #
@qui_oui Everyone "else," you mean! #
@MikeStorrings What mood do you have to be in to wear red? #
@MikeStorrings Blue. #
@aeratcliffe What factors do you think are involved with it? #phdchat #
