Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Did you send one to me? I haven't gotten one yet.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Did you send one to me?

I didn't! I had you down as one of my first invitees, but I just realized when I went back to check that I spelled your email address wrong. Dude, I suck! Re-added you now, with the usual caveat that they don't go out right away.

No prob.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Can I have one?

Thanks, amych. Kewl.

So no one's done customisation for a Sharepoint application? I am convinced you can write custom .NET code that pulls content from it (as opposed to the .NET portlets that come in the box), but it's damned hard googling because .NET pulls up everything with "net".

eta: Nah, I'm convinced I'm right. I'm just not sure how to sell my point at work.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I never got my invite, either. Hmmm.

Ok, now I has Wave.

Thanks!

Cool! Good to know that that batch has gone out now. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to how long it takes for invites to go out -- it seems to be anywhere from a few days to several weeks, but entirely up to the whim of the googods.

Random question: How often do you reboot your computer (if it's one you leave on all the time)?

Assuming I'm not updating something, I generally leave my MacBook Pro on for 20-30 days between reboots.
