Can understand why this guy hates Google so much if he keeps checking Analytics to find people like us laughing at him.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 17:38 (fourteen years ago)

* 1. - it's more focused on a particular subspecies of social media assholes

These are social media assholes we read & trust.

Stellar is great, yes. Really needs the ability to find your friends, though. I'm just following a bunch of randoms and it's worrying how often people favorite Gruber's stuff.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 18:31 (fourteen years ago)

well they prob just read and then trusted him

lag∞n, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 18:33 (fourteen years ago)

markers, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 18:46 (fourteen years ago)

Can send an invite to the email on your user profile. Only got one left, though.
