• So, house.gov is still very slow and erratic. Apparently, the House is limiting e-mails to prevent crash: http://tinyurl.com/4u9nh6 #

• would like to remind everyone that he is not a designer. #
• @pat_ramsey I haven’t been able to pull up house.gov either. I’m trying to find text of Pelosi’s floor speech today. #

• @jaded_ninja That’s unfortunate. Dust sucks this year. Got an irritated throat, but I think we’ll don our bandanas and brave it again. #acl #
• Brunch and Mimosas at a friend’s before #acl http://twitpic.com/dosa #

• Catching up w/ debate chatter on Twitter. I was only able to catch some of it on tv after ACL. Will have to watch it online at cnn.com. #
• @drhayes what? I thought CSS was playing tomorrow. Was this a different set? #acl #
• At Black and Tan on 7th with a bottle of Greyhoose and friends. Come by and help us finish it. #
• http://twitpic.com/deic at http://tinyurl.com/3nrno5 #
• @kathywarren M. Night Shyamalan is a joke. What was ‘the twist’ this time? #
• Heading to ACL. Communication blackout to commence shortly. #
• Needing to buy a bandana to combat the dust at ACL. I thought they learned to water Zilker after the great dustbowl at ACL ‘05. #

• There goes Washington Mutual, “in what will rank among the biggest banking failures in U.S. history.” http://is.gd/394d #wamu #
• Twitter launches awesome Election 2008 app: http://election.twitter.com #
• I’ll be at ACL during the debate tonight. I’m wondering whose liveblog I should watch? #
• Ultimately it was a run on WaMu that brought it down. Customers withdrew $16.7 billion in cash over 9 days - http://bit.ly/1eqaCv #
• How Palin sees the bailout? https://blogs.portfolio.com/images/feeds/blogs/palineconom.gif from http://tinyurl.com/4ab3dx #
• @BaldMan that is funny. @zeldman posted an even funnier link with the param ‘My Balls’, but I think that makes the app just that much better #
• You know you have a problem when the NATIONAL REVIEW asks that Palin drop out. Do it for country, they ask. http://tinyurl.com/4t6zgw #
• Wall Street’s top 5 firms paid their execs bonuses of $3 billion in the past 5 years as they presided over this mess. Look it up- Bloomberg. #
• Unfollow 360acl #
• network FAIL at ACL. #
• How is it that the AMD stage has the worst sound EVERY year? It can’t possibly be random. #acl #

• @atxkat I don’t even know what you’re talking about, but that seems like a pointless start to the day. :-( #

As I’ve written in the past, I’ve worked to cultivate a personal brand and personal name recognition. Well, I’m very happy to say that I’ve aquired ryanjoy.com!

For the foreseeable future it will simply remain a mirror of this site, atxryan.com. However, I may either start to promote this domain more as my personal homepage or create a separate site that would serve as my professional portfolio. Seeing as how I’m either too lazy, too busy, or unmotivated to update this design, I don’t see that happening any time soon.

Still, I believe this is a good investment for the future.

I’m at 1:40 or so: Tweet Up Blood Drive - Mash-up .

• @Sledd congrats! That’s great! #
• Largest bailout in U.S. history could potentially cost every American man, woman and child $2,300. Not to mention the money already loaned. #
• Treasury Secretary Paulson, worth about $700 million, says "I share the outrage that people have". Do you believe him? Me neither. #
• The architects of this bailout have been wrong or worse, deceitful, about everything since this crisis began. Why trust their judgement now? #
• table near me at Torchy’s was very upset over bailout. They seemed conservative, lawyer types. I love that people of all stripes are pissed. #
• wow. Twitter community is abuzz and insulted that McCain is suspending his campaign and postponing debate http://www.twitscoop.com/ #
• @michellegreer He may be genuine, but neither are members of the committees that are considering this. Sure, come back to vote, but post … #
• @michellegreer this debate unfortunately will not cover the economy, unless as a tangent. The earlier agreed upon topic is foreign policy. #
• @pat_ramsey I’m actually on both sides of this issue. It wouldn’t bother me if they were in DC, taking leadership on the $1 Trillion pkg … #
• @pat_ramsey but they can do that from the campaign too. They’re not skipping finance commitee mtngs that they’re a member of. #
• ok, turning off twitter and the news feeds in the browsers for the rest of the afternoon… It’s way too distracting today. #
• I aquired my .com name from a domain squatter today. I think the price paid is worth it in the long run. - http://ryanjoy.com #
