North Jersey - Even more packing, TwitVim lists support, Google Wave
If it seems I haven't been doing much lately, that's because it's mostly been packing up and cleaning out stuff from the apartment. In 14 years, I sure can accumulate a lot! I think we're nearing the end of it though. Also, either tomorrow or the day after, we'll take a load of toys, clothes, and kitchenware to the Goodwill donation center in Nanuet.

In the midst of packing, I snuck in a bit of work on TwitVim to add support for reading Twitter lists. Haven't written the documentation yet but it appears the lists API is still a little rough so there is no hurry. I think I'll have a bit more work to do soon to support the retweets API and home timeline. Apparently, I didn't stop having computer programming work to do after leaving the job. Funny that.

Also, I joined the Google Wave preview a week ago (mortonfox@googlewave.com) and only just started really using it today. If you need an invite, pass me an email address to send it to. Also, if you're already on Google Wave, let me know too. I'll add you to my contacts.

I just got that. You're moving to a new home / apartment?

It's interesting for me because I really like stability of any kind of thing, be it a place to live or a job or anything. This has to do with my OCD, I don't change much, unless it's something good to embrace.

As a matter of fact I've been living at my current home for 22 years, since I was born to be exact. I think I'm to used to it to ever mode unless I really have to...

Pardon me. I meant to write "I think I'm too used to it to ever move unless I really have to..."

Oh, I have to move. There are lots of factors that made me decide I have to do this. In addition to the high cost of living and taxes in North Jersey, the apartment building has not been maintained very well.

Yes, I bought a house with cash and I'm going to move there. I like stability too; so much that I've been in North Jersey for years longer than I should have stayed. On the plus side, I've had years to choose a new place to live so I'm reasonably sure this is the right decision.

You got it. Give Google a day or two to deliver the invite.

Looking forward to hearing your ongoing reviews of Google Wave... maybe you can convince me it's useful :9

It's fun if you have people to chat with on Google Wave and if you have a good topic of conversation. Otherwise, it's not terribly useful. Also, it gets very slow when the wave is long but I expect Google will tweak it for performance before they release it.
