New Lingo

From my aggregator today, two new sayings I'm adding to my vocabulary (in bold below)!

Mobile Phone Gaming

"Mobile gaming substitutes micro-moments of boredom for entertainment; you don't need to be wired to a console and TV and now you can be part of a wider community. Local communications is a useful addition to the gaming experience, if not directly to the operators' coffers." [The Register, via MMS Memo]

Treolicious [jasonyormark.com]

BTW, "substitutes micro-moments of boredom" is THE perfect phrase for the Treo 600, and not just for playing games. Truly. It should be the device's slogan.

Email is where knowledge goes to die.

Email is where knowledge goes to die. What a great line. (This piece by Bill French might be the original source.) Via Lilia, who reflects on asking questions in public.

Get's my vote for meme of the week. I also think I saw a reference to this from Scoble as well. Thank you Robert, Bill, Lilia, and Seb.
