Verizon: Changing my Rate Plan. Confusing.
I just changed my Verizon home phone plan to the cheapest that I could find online:
Local: Measured Rate $12.70 + Long Distance: e-Values $5.50 + Regional: Sensible Minute $2.99.
I had a live chat with the Verizon rep and asked why I needed to choose long distance.
They said I had to order it online, but I could cancel it later.
Once you place the order online now, you will receive an email confirmation of your order within 24 hours with all the details of your order. In the email, you will receive a Dedicated Customer Service number, on which you can call to cancel your long distance feature.Curious.
Then I tweeted out what I ordered and @LHRodriguez: told me this:
@stevegarfield Watch out for that measured rate plan. They charge an additional fee if you do not use enough minutes.I don't see THAT in the plan details:
Measured RateMy questions:
Make calls within your local calling area for a low monthly rate. In addition, each call is billed at the rate of $.01 per call and $.016 per minute. The per-minute rate in western Massachusetts is $.016 for peak periods and $.008 for off-peak periods.
1. Why does Verizon require me to order a long distance plan online, and they make me cancel it some other way?
Answer: OPEN
2. Are there hidden costs in not using enough minutes on the Measured Rate plan? I heard that some people are charge a "shortfall" charge. Approx: $6. That won't apply to me?
Answer: There won't be any hidden charges. Be rest assured. You will get complete information of your charges in your order confirmation email which you will receive within next 24 hours.
3. Are 800 number calls totally free? Or do they use up minutes on any plan?
Answer: 800 calls will be free.

...every DMCA takedown notice that is sent regarding one of your videos counts as a "strike" on your account. If your account accumlates three strikes, YouTube will cancel all of your accounts and remove all of your videos. The only way to remove a strike is to send a formal counter-notice.Read this earlier post about a parody video of mine that was taken down:

Brilliant: Marriott East Side New York City
Jeff Cutler just made a blog post about his bad experience at the Las Vegas Hilton.
It reminded me that I wanted to blog about my recent experience at the Marriott East Side in New York City.
It was amazing.
Everything that went wrong for Jeff Cutler at the Hilton, went right for me at the Marriott.
I'm a member of their frequent traveler program and was just upgraded for a short period to Gold status.
When I arrived at 11:00 AM I inquired if any upgrades were available. The desk clerk got right on the phone and found out that yes, a complimentary upgrade was available to a larger room.
I figured why not, so I agreed and went up to the room.
When I opened the door I found myself entering what looked like a living room with a couch, side chair and desk. French Doors were at the far end.
Openeing them I found myself in a very large room with a flat screen TV.
Around the corner was a sink and down the hall was a bathroom.
Sweet.
There was also an in room safe, large enough for anything I could think of putting in there. Also, I had a refrigerator that wasn't full of things I wasn't going to pay for any way.
So the room was sweet.
Also included in the upgrade was access to the Concierge floor which meant a free light breakfast that included eggs and oatmeal. There was an afternoon dinnertime that included tortelini and ham sandwiches. Free water too.
Sweet.
Everything was perfect. It was an inside room, with room darkening shades.
Upon checking out, any staff member that I passed hoped that I had a nice time and hoped to see me again.
Brilliant.
Oh and BTW, there were computer terminals to print out my bording pass at no charge.

Like Facebook
Like Button is a site that shows what people 'you know' like on the internet right now.
You can even customise it at the bottom of the page with other sites.
I added Netflix and my blog.
You'll notice that it displays both Facebook likes and shares.

How to add a Facebook LIKE button to an OLD Blogger page
If you're like me and have hung on the the original Blogger instead of upgrading to the new template system, you'll need to get into the HTML code to add a new facebook LIKE Button to your blog.
Here's how.
5 Steps to adding a Facebook LIKE button to an OLD Blogger page
1. Go to the the facebook DEVELOPERS Like Button page.
2. Fill in the fields:
For URL to Like enter REPLACETHIS for now. You replace that with this <$BlogItemPermalinkURL$> in the next step.
3. Click Get Code.
You'll get this code to copy:
4. Copy that and paste it into your Blogger HTML template.
Then replace REPLACETHIS with <$BlogItemPermalinkURL$>
5. Click SAVE TEMPLATE CHANGES
You're done!
LIKE this post to try it. :-)
Update:
Further testing seems to indicate that something is wrong with this implementation. It's inconsistent. Sometimes 'like' works and sometimes it works on the second try.
I can't get like to stick on this post, can you?
Any help would be appreciated.
Update II:
Seems to be working now. Must have been something on the facebook hosting side. Let me know if you implement this on your site and I'll come try it out.

YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
Anne Horak as Inga in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. The Mel Brooks Musical.
Now playing at The Opera House in Boston.
Despite some of the lowest common denominator Mel Brooks humor, I enjoyed it. We're not talking John Stewart here.
Roger Bart was great as Dr. Frankenstein and what's not to like about Anne Horak as Inga, Hello?

How To Share a Flickr Photo On Facebook
3 Steps to Share a Flickr Photo On Facebook
1. From your Flickr photo page, Copy the URL.
Flickr Page
In this example, the URL is http://www.flickr.com/photos/stevegarfield/4545228891/
2. Go to facebook, and Paste the URL into the box that says "What's on your mind?"
Facebook Page
When you do that, facebook will grab the photo form flickr and add it, a link to it, it's title and description, in a box, just below where you pasted in the URL.
Note:
Sometimes this doesn't work. You need to give Facebook a few moments to go grab the photo. Even after waiting, it might not work. For me, this works 90% of the time.
Facebook Page
3. Now you can Click SHARE to post this photo and it's details to facebook.
Optionally, you can now delete the URL in the box and type in some explanatory text in there. You can slso leave it in there too. Either way.
Here's the resulting page on Facebook.
1. From your Flickr photo page, Copy the URL.

Sharing from Pandora internet radio to Facebook and Twitter
I'm testing out sharing from Pandora internet radio to Facebook and twitter.
Right at the top of the Pandora player you can click to share to twitter, facebook, email and gift. The first time you click on twitter or facebook, you'll get a screen that asks you to allow hte connection.
Here's that the resulting posts look like.
Twitter
Facebook
I like how the facebook post includes a music player that lets you listen to the music right there.
You can customise the message too prior to sending it out.
Email just sends out and email and Gift sends a link to a station that you can create like a mixtape. ;-)
If you are interested in listening to Pandora internet radio here are two of my stations:
- Imogen Heap Radio
- Royksopp Radio

Pick it up and hand it to the bartender
Daring Fireball, Gizmodo and the Prototype iPhone:
Speaking from personal experience as one who has spent a fair number of hours in bars, there is a universal protocol for dealing with misplaced or forgotten personal items left behind by fellow patrons. Wallets, keys, phones, purses. Whatever. If you see something like that on the floor, or forgotten on a table, you pick it up and hand it to the bartender. If you realize you’ve lost something, you ask the bartender. Everyone knows this.Gizmodo, How Apple Lost the Next iPhone.

Boston.com Fails to Link to People Mentioned in a Twitter Article
It's not unusual for Boston.com to leave out links in thier articles.
In today's article about twitter, Ten tips for attracting a following on Twitter, written by my friend Scott Kirsner, links are not included in the article.
Here's an example paragraph:
Jim's twitter handle should be linked. (The handle for Jim Storer is @jimstorer.)
In the next paragraph we see this:
Boston.com onine editors took the time to link to their own twitter username, but fail to link out to Jim's.
That's not right.
Beyond that, I added a comment on the Globe site that addresses the twitter @username convention:
So there you go. ;-)
Update 4/19, David Beard, Boston.com editor, writes on twitter:
"Re Twitter links. @jimstorer, @dmscott now added; @scottkirsner already had many others there. @digiphile@stevegarfield @eric_andersen"
Thanks. You're right, some links were there, but some weren't.
I suggest that when an article includes words like website, internet, or twitter, someone should check to make sure that appropriate links are added.
In today's article about twitter, Ten tips for attracting a following on Twitter, written by my friend Scott Kirsner, links are not included in the article.
Here's an example paragraph:
Set up your profile. Before people decide whether to follow you, they want to know who you are, says Jim Storer, a Lynnfield social media consultant. Click “Settings’’ and then “Profile’’ on the Twitter site, and enter your real name, a link to your website, and, in the “bio’’ field, a few words of description about you, your company, or what you plan to tweet about. Upload a photo or your company logo, too. “Having your own avatar on the service means a lot to people,’’ Storer says.
Jim's twitter handle should be linked. (The handle for Jim Storer is @jimstorer.)
In the next paragraph we see this:
Put your Twitter “handle’’ everywhere. Though they start with an “@’’ sign, Twitter handles are different from e-mail addresses or website addresses. (The handle for Globe business news, for instance, is @GlobeBiz.)Interesting.
Boston.com onine editors took the time to link to their own twitter username, but fail to link out to Jim's.
That's not right.
Beyond that, I added a comment on the Globe site that addresses the twitter @username convention:
Hi Scott,I'd link to my comment over on Boston.com, but comments don't have permalinks to link to.
Nice article.
Jim Storer's tips are perfect for people starting to use twitter.
Glad to see you included everyone's twitter name, those mentioned, in this tweet:
http://twitter.com/ScottKirsner/status/12401701195
Too bad boston.com can't include them in the article, and furthermore, too bad the Boston Globe can't include them in the print edition.
To clarify one thing in the article, although many people are getting familar with the @username designation for twitter usernames, putting @username at the bottom of an email might not be the best practice.
As you can see in the coments above, people who have used that convention, are not getting active links.
You really need to use hte full twitter URL to make a username clickable.
So my twitter username @stevegarfield is better added to the bottom of an email, or in a comment thread like here as:
http://twitter.com/stevegarfield
That gives people a clickable link to my twitter page.
On a business card, I use @stevegarfeld.
Hope this helps.
--Steve

Salt: Movie Preview in EW featuring Microsoft Tag, originally uploaded by stevegarfield. CC BY-NC-SA
Reading about the new movie Salt, featuring Angelina Joie in the Summer Movie Preview issue of Enterainment Weekly.
The Microsoft Tag technology is cool. You load hte Microsoct Tag app onto your phone and then point your phone's camera at the tag located on the magazine. In this case, a YouTube movie opens up and plays the trainer. The Microsoct Tag is very accurate and a lot faster than other tagging technologies out there. I first saw this in use at SXSW.
Here's the Salt movie trailer:

This is very cool. I've just touched the surface, but after visiting the www.thejohnnycashproject.com site, within minutes I'd made a drawing based on a photograph of Johnny Cash, registered for the site and submitted my drawing.
Then I tweeted, blogged and flickered about it.
First seen here.
Whoa! Everyone's images are assembled into an everchanging music video.
