The Red Sox aren’t on the list, mostly because they are still in contention for one of the wild cards. I’m not sure if that makes me feel good about the second half of the season though.

New Red She-Hulk Book from Jeff Parker
This makes two known Marvel books with female leads. I have high hopes for this one.

These look amazing. I want a large version of the Avengers one for my wall.
Yesterday, [a post on Noteandpoint.com explored the history of the Twitter @reply](http://noteandpoint.com/2011/09/why-the-user-experience-of-enterprise-software-isn’t-all-that-awesome/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+NoteAndPoint+%28Note+%26+Point%29). A followup [post today on ManicalrageCheck.com](http://log.maniacalrage.net/post/ 26935842947/the-real-history-of-the-reply-on-twitter) provides a little more clarity but still cannot nail down all of the details. Ultimately, this type of research would be much easier if Twitter allowed its user to access their entire tweet history.
Really great presentation by Sean Rankin. I particularly like his point that:
> The buyer & the user are not the same person.
Everything else stems from that.

Tweetbot for Mac – It’s Alive!
Tapbots just released the public alpha. Since it’s an alpha build, I assume there will be some rough edges, but I’m giving a shot as my primary Twitter client.
I did not realize how many great writers have been a part of this series of articles over at [MacDrifter](http://www.macdrifter.com). I’m going back to catch the ones I missed, starting with [Michael Schechter](http://www.macdrifter.com/2012/04/michael-schechters-writer-workflow/)
It would have felt wrong if he was not there.

Dropbox Upgrades their Plans
When [Google Drive](http://drive.google.com) was released, I hoped it would cause [Dropbox](http://db.tt/bl7yQBc)[^footnote] to give its subscribers more storage at a lower price. That is exactly what happened earlier today.

I’m going to have to try out all of these.
A true pro shows how he gets the most from Instagram. Of course, I’m one of the people he mentions who dislikes [Camera+][camplus] [^affiliateNote]. I’m a [Camera Awesome](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=r*bqlTuiXSo&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fcamera-awesome%252Fid420744028%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30) guy instead.

GM of Mountain Lion Released
I always get excited about new OS updates, even when they’re these, supposedly, “minor” updates. For Mountain Lion, I’m most excited about improved iCloud integration and dictation. I’m sure my colleagues are going to love hearing me talk to my computer all day.
I’m glad Raleigh won. Pre-ordered.

Amazing Spider-Man
I just got back from [Amazing Spider-man](http://www.theamazingspiderman.com/). It was entertaining, but did not blow me away. In fact, I’d say that it was not as good as any of the movies produced by [Marvel Studios](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Cinematic_Universe). That being said, Andrew Garfield was quite good at being Spider-Man and Emma Stone stole every scene she was in.
If you want a more in-depth review of the film, I highly recommend [Paul Montgomery’s (spoiler free) review over at iFanboy](http://ifanboy.com/articles/movie-review-the-amazing-spider-man-spoiler-free/).
