Today in ridiculous Captchas:

Vergence at #Demo: Some kids doing tech eyeglasses. "Turning reality into a platform." Where have we seen this??

Oh god, @Jason & @naval have the same man-bag. #Launch

At #Launch: Local Motion, shared electric car (designed by local welders' union) for business/building owners.

Talked to Michael Keating, CEO Scoot, the Zipcar (sort of) of electric scooters. Very interesting. More soon.

One way to a journalist's heart: Ask.com's official Rafe cupcake for SxSW. Verdict, damn tasty, but messy.

My iPad freaked out. I discovered that this is what happens if you use up (nearly) all the memory in it.

My kind of captcha:

MightyBell has a great beta gateway: $1 for early access. What chutzpah. I love it! #cnet

After the Apple liveblog at CNET: One pizza per writer? #Cnet

Big tent going up in front of our building. All I'm saying is, there better be a bouncy house in there.

Facebook apparently running a sports book. At #F8. Liveblog soon. #cnet

Gonna be on CBS Early Edition (SF) at about 6:50am. Obligatory control room shot...

In what universe does this make sense? #disrupt #cnet
