@Binarytales @ppk Asking for a "beer mat" in the US will result in most folks not understanding, some gleaning from context, a few who know.
@wearymadness Yep, "coaster" is used for both the cardboard and a more substantial beverage surface made of ceramic, wood, etc. @ppk
@ppk Ha! Sorry, you know I just couldn't help myself. It came right off the tips of my fingers and I hit "tweet" before I even realized it.
@ppk Coaster is the US term. A mat to me would be larger, like a placemat or a floormat. But not a microformat! That would be smaller ;)

@ppk To me, "beer coaster" would be the little cardboard bit placed under your glass, sometimes it's fancier, sometimes just paper napkins.

@starweaver Not that I'm aware of just yet, no. I imagine it will be a day or more before we hear. Treasure our days, for they are fleeting.

@StuRobson I swear! I believe Klout# came up in conversation with @charJTF @sarahebourne and @claudia_snell in Boston. / @stefsull
Really sad to read that Ilya Zhitomirskiy has died at 22, A great loss to the Web community and the world. mashable.com/2011/11/13/ilya…

@stefsull You ARE the influencer ;) I can't believe there are jobs out there actually asking for Klout scores. What a bunch o' hooey.
All of the games I found are classics reformatted for Mac. So far, everything works great on my MBP. SO much fun.

@StuRobson I know, how cool though, huh? I have 7 LSL games here. Freakin' awesome.
Original Quake, Sim City 1989, Warcraft (orcs and humans) - I swear, if Dr. Sheldon Cooper were here he'd be almost as giddy as I am! #tbbt

Well looky here #tucson. It's actual rain. It's wonderful. It's a warm, steady, calming I'm curled up with kitty and tea kind of rain.
