	@itsjustkate @jaimebc you know ALA Annual is in #vegas in 2014, right? what happens in #vegas stays online forever #ala14 [shifted]
	Posted james3neal: Informative post by @jcmeloni – "Location-Based Gaming for Education: Try Gowalla" (on @ProfHacker – H/T @karikraus) – http://j.mp/cZ5xp8.
	RT @efilgo: This is one of the most amazing things I’ve heard in a long time: http://inbflat.net/ [shifted]
	"we behave in the boring ways that make life livable"- http://ow.ly/2SOC9 #cerealforbreakfast [shifted]
	Posted ChooseChicago: Up for a challenge? Download http://www.SCVNGR.com to your phone for Navy Pier, Foodie Frenzie or Presidential Chicago treks #moti.
	can’t bring myself to buy the #kindle version of a "224 page" book because it costs $17. what’s your personal price point for ebooks? [shifted]
	Shared The Networked Nonprofit Board \| Bethâ€™s Blog. The last chapter of the Networked Nonprofit is on networked governance. We thought this would be an easy part of the book to write â€“ all weâ€™d have to do is find examples of how boards online, opening up decisionmaking to outside influences. There were no examples â€“ so the last chapter of the book is speculative, based on the best thinking of the people who have looked at networked governance. I dreamed up some scenarios of boards and social media in practice.
	@wawoodworth no hardcover; paperback version is $23. just seems wrong to me, even though I want to read it. [shifted]
	@bmljenny @wawoodworth @HiddenPeanuts I buy like @griffey does. if price had been =<$12 I’da bought it but 75% cost of print seems wrong [shifted]
	@wawoodworth I’m not sure it’s only wrong b/c of Amazon’s pricing. 75% cost of print for 224 pages? [shifted]
	me, too RT @griffey: @shifted I find myself impulse buying at <$10, thinking about it at around $12, and more than $15 they can forget it. [shifted]
	@gershbec I feel bad b/c I’d like to support this author & it’s a trade book I could use but it will likely be lost revenue for the author [shifted]
	@arekdreyer agreed – I’d be willing to pay more if it meant more content or features but it looks like a straight conversion from print [shifted]
	@bmljenny yes, I can’t check the ebook version out from my library & I don’t want to read the print copy, so no $ for author/publisher [shifted]
	Posted leachea_79: Want: http://www.threadless.com/product/1344/Fail.
	@arekdreyer maybe but indexing is less important in an ebook & there are no add’l features. what do you think the "more" is here? (honest ?) [shifted]
	@arekdreyer respectfully disagree. don’t want 2 pay same $ when it costs u nothing 2 print & send to me. ur costs r lower-mine should be too [shifted]

	I’m a "ricochet worker," too, and I’m okay with that. I still get a lot done. http://amzn.com/k/211N5M7LJQ40X #Kindle [shifted]
