- Apologies if you're trying to tweet me. My stream is unusable – several tweets a second re: Athene's hunger strike. http://t.co/IHtkNSQc #
- Tweetbombing people is a really good way to lose credibility for your cause, no matter how worthy. #
- @Alriksson78 I understand – I don't blame them. I blame Athene. It's DDoS for a "good cause." Not ok. in reply to Alriksson78 #
- But you made Twitter unusable for me during a show. Is that what you wanted @bmarky? in reply to bmarky #
- Now I'm getting tweet bombed with apologies. OK OK!! Peace! #

- Sometimes it sucks to be the boss. (at @TWiT) [pic] — http://t.co/eE5yPaAS #

- @TheBrain0110 yeah great idea! More advertisers! in reply to TheBrain0110 #
- Listen carefully @vanroberts – I always say both. #
- Hey @markparrott1978 we would have taken any ads at all. The gaming industry wouldn't even look at something with fewer than 50K views. in reply to markparrott1978 #
- Live viewers are a fraction of downloads @vanroberts – a few thousand here and there make no diff. in reply to vanroberts #
- Oh it does @CombatReadyCat – we do very well with a relatively tiny audience because you all are so engaged! in reply to CombatReadyCat #
- Those aren't numbers @D_Love – iTunes rankings don't even correlate to numbers. They represent recent subscriptions only. in reply to D_Love #
- Funny that Instagram is the consolation prize after Facebook lost @milk to Google. #
- The Instagram alternative is @EyeEm @WigglesTheHoly – hope they've bought more server capacity! in reply to WigglesTheHoly #

- @sarahlane You better not. I'd be lost without you. in reply to sarahlane #

- We're bringing the dream team back together this Sunday for TWiT: @jolieodell and @THErealDVORAK. #
- My current iPhone case is a Rokbed @micdl http://t.co/R7bwnmPv – I love the dashboard, magnet, and tripod accessories. in reply to micdl #

- @IAmDavidSims I think I have, actually. in reply to IAmDavidSims #
- I'd love to follow @chessnetwork, @predicante – but the worthless captcha at @TwitchTV doesn't work. in reply to predicante #
- Fell for a scam – installed the Syn app for iPhone and it spammed my Facebook friends. Do not install. #
- @kathyget I was spammed by Syn via @alexia! in reply to kathyget #
- I should have read the reviews. http://t.co/JKnGIMQ3 Thanks for keeping me humble. @alexia @kathyget in reply to alexia #

- Early Game On numbers from the last episode: Audio 7,239, Video 14,362 – total 21,601. #
- @andrewbrackin it's tracking about the same as previous episodes. in reply to andrewbrackin #

- I just unlocked the "Campus Explorer" badge on @foursquare! http://t.co/0ysRG8VW #
- It's a beautiful day for baseball, let's play two! (with Lisa and Ron at AT&T Park Club Level) [pic] — http://t.co/p5eNs3cd #
- @JustRalphie I take it you want me to do Central Time? I just figure you're smart enough to do the math! in reply to JustRalphie #
- @tradestudent I think our next step is to cut costs and attempt to book more ads to make up for slipping revenue. Two new shows, too. in reply to tradestudent #
- @jonathannorris Nice work – just installed @cloudphotos on my iPhone. in reply to jonathannorris #
- @aldofigueroa @shwood @veronica @giantbomb Of course not. Is that what Jeff said? in reply to aldofigueroa #

- @telonaes You're right – my apologies. I'm fixing it now. in reply to telonaes #
- Do not download the TWiT HD version on iTunes. We put the wrong episode in the feed. Fixing it as soon as I can wake someone up. #
- All the other feeds for TWiT 347 are fine – or grab it from the web site http://t.co/VxS3RWUm #
- I am so sorry. It's a 2GB download. I am deeply ashamed of our screwup. #
- It's not cachefly @nickswift498 – our production staff screwed up. in reply to nickswift498 #
- @da_n There's a Radio Leo feed that has everything I do (in audio). For all TWiT shows http://t.co/HnmHO8Ji used to work. in reply to da_n #
- @jkeenam I wish it were only one – it's been happening too often lately. We need to fix our workflow I fear. in reply to jkeenam #
- RT @JHarold: "Follow it up with an epic rant about how you fired your staff, closed the TWIT cottage and headed for the hills!" I'm tempted! #
- @stevepiazza Yeah Roku uses the same feed. We've fixed the feed and the correct files should start propagating soon. -sigh- in reply to stevepiazza #
- @Readdle You just did. I'll check it out. Thanks! in reply to Readdle #
- @renusm iPhone goes to the hospital today. I'm curious to see if the "I got wet" strip has changed color. in reply to renusm #
- @radiocolin Which of course means we'll have the ability to screw all the feeds up automatically! Whoopee! #
- @geewhipped cool! Thanks! in reply to geewhipped #
- @Cranky_Hippo it's ok, I still like you! in reply to Cranky_Hippo #
- @Cranky_Hippo I don't blame you – I blame the Game of Thrones. in reply to Cranky_Hippo #

- @BroadcastLatino Yes! We're the official streaming partner of the NAB show – wall-to-wall coverage starting 4/16. in reply to BroadcastLatino #
- @Sylenu Actually we do. in reply to Sylenu #
- Thanks @Minettyg – that's why I'm bummed about the borked feed. TWiT 347 was one of the funniest ever! in reply to Minettyg #
- @cellguru email leo@leoville.com and cross your fingers. (I get a lot of email, and no there's no "private" address!) in reply to cellguru #
- Yeah @thomasrysgaard that's Brian Lam's new site: http://t.co/RVNDCapI – I agree with nearly all his picks. in reply to thomasrysgaard #
- Fixing the water damaged iPhone http://t.co/kHcjRmnn #
- The "waterproof" iphone is indeed dead. The video circuitry got shorted out. On my way to the Apple store to get a new one. #
- Turned out the phone was unfixable @bmjbml – Apple replaced it for $200. in reply to bmjbml #
- @RamblingGeekUK they're saying I held it wrong. Seriously. in reply to RamblingGeekUK #

- We tried the gaming roundtable for six months before GO! @Strembitsky – remember At The Controls? in reply to Strembitsky #
- We tried that @CohenJordan – At The Controls got six months and no traction. I think gaming's not for TWiT. in reply to CohenJordan #
- There's a direct correlation @jethomas between cost and production value. Yawning heads are cheap. in reply to jethomas #
- Watch it how you like it @bretjennings – we get credit regardless! in reply to bretjennings #
- Are you kidding @cbeagrie? @Veronica is a star. Sword & Laser, Tekzilla, etc. Game On was a minor part of her empire! in reply to cbeagrie #
- That was the idea @pchampness – we won't stop being ambitious, I promise! Thanks! in reply to pchampness #
- The cost of adding video is merely incremental @SeeJayEmm – and a bet on the future. in reply to SeeJayEmm #
- Interesting @rptrane – an audio only show about gaming? Did you listen to At The Controls? in reply to rptrane #
- Micropayments they are @Therealfritz – I've made $26.20 in a year of @flattr. in reply to Therealfritz #
- Really @_loug? With friends like you who needs enemies? in reply to _loug #
- We did @Gregsaw – and no one noticed. Remember At The Controls? in reply to Gregsaw #

- I hired the best gamers I could find @djjester – suggestions? in reply to djjester #
- RT @MisterPuck: @leolaporte If you want to do a gaming show, get some people who are actually gamers to host and run it #TWiT style. #
- RT @MisterPuck: "If you want to do a gaming show get some people who are actually gamers…" and this is why we don't do gaming shows. #
- The previous tweet is why I can't do a gaming show. There is no gaming "community." Just a bunch of warring parties. #

- I am loving @EyeEm! Brilliant. Prepare for more traffic from the TWiT army. in reply to EyeEm #
- Well @jamesreb – I gave them a try. Ordered three pairs of shoes. Two days later, @shoesdotcom cancelled the order for no apparent reason. in reply to jamesreb #
- This store across the street offers free same-day delivery! Imagine that! #
- That's it @jotter507 – Sole Desire is about 100 feet away. (50 pairs of feet away?) in reply to jotter507 #

Leo’s Twitter Updates For The Week Of 2012-03-25
- Just posted a photo http://t.co/B1ZVT6TC #
- Now @TonyaHallRadio if we really want to have a conversation about Twitter is this the best place to have it? Or G+? Or Facebook? #
- I really think Twitter stinks for conversation @TonyaHallRadio – it's fleeting, brief, unsatisfying. Like a bad love affair. #
- @hjsfn @tonyahallradio I don't think there ARE any normal twitter users. The normals all use Facebook! in reply to hjsfn #
- @chancerubbage @tonyahallradio Well of course you guys buy into Twitter – that's why you're here. But really what kind of convo fits 140 wds in reply to chancerubbage #
- @robertmerrill @tonyahallradio I think both G+ and Facebook support permanent, long-form condos via threading. That's the key. in reply to robertmerrill #
- @BobFrankston Spot on Bob. Perfect for our modern dystopia. in reply to BobFrankston #
- @Turtwig Grrr. I corrected that autocorrect and it STILL corrected it! Condos indeed. #
- @chancerubbage @tonyahallradio This kind of hit and run BS is exactly why Twitter sucks for good conversation. Unfollow. in reply to chancerubbage #
- @toxicpath Good to know. I won't any more! in reply to toxicpath #
- This car seat position tells you pretty much everything you need to know about my son's at… (at Chez Laporte) [pic] — http://t.co/4Tr4HL2S #
- @TonyaHallRadio I think "distinguished" is code for old. in reply to TonyaHallRadio #
- @TonyaHallRadio You are a handsome woman and very distinguished yourself. Now that you're one year older anyway! in reply to TonyaHallRadio #
- @lVloose @ryan was on briefly for 5 minutes – we called he impromptu after the show. in reply to lVloose #
- @brendan_o @kevinrose not to mention fighting it out for #1 on Twitter. in reply to brendan_o #
- @htcmsec well I'm a bad example. I always go top of the line because it's for the shows. in reply to htcmsec #
- @LizzieEcs Sorry no. We halted production in 2008. But TWiT.tv is trying to do something similar! in reply to LizzieEcs #
- @notanexit @ihnatko We're trying to track it down. It's something Skype is doing on Andy's end. in reply to notanexit #
- @sarahlane @jamiepepper @ambermac Nor can I – page loads fine for me. in reply to sarahlane #
- @mswanberg2 I believe so – if you want GPS you have to get LTE. in reply to mswanberg2 #
- @LAJP @twit Mediafly got out of the business. Use the TWiT app on iOS instead. It's excellent. Or Downcast, Instacast, etc. in reply to LAJP #
- @peterschloss I said don't use VPN in China to go around their laws. You're a guest in the country (and it's unnecessary). in reply to peterschloss #
- @NKoekkoek I bought a top of the line Verizon iPad – but it's my job. in reply to NKoekkoek #
