I really don't have time "to Twitter," it's not something that should grab your day. That's a big misconception, actually, about the whole service. You don't go out of your way to tweet, you just post when you've got something. Hopefully, not while you're driving. It complements your life more than takes over your life.

I feel like so much of why I sort of want to work in television is so that people know to come see me live.

I think the mistake a lot of people make with new media is they just focus on one thing. But any one thing - just doing podcasts or just having a website or just doing television - isn't enough anymore.

Trying to make strangers laugh is crazy and more than a little narcissistic.

There are certain parts of a classic nerd's brain that can destroy that person - obsessing about things to the detriment of everything else in your life. But those are the same tools that you can use to turn everything around.

Growing up in the 70s and 80s, it took effort to be a nerd. You had to seek out the nerd stuff.

The 'Hipster Nerds' like stuff because they hate it. It's like they ironically like it.
