The @ reply has long been cited as an example of Twitter's organic growth, having birthed from its users rather than a San Francisco office -- but who really started it? After some in-depth sleuthing, early adopter Garrett Murray now credits the ad hoc invention to Robert Andersen, who gave kudos to an especially dedicated (and injured) compatriot on November 2, 2006. The origin day most accept as part of the common legend, November 23rd that same year, was more of a happy accident where Murray and others decided to use the now famous shift-2 keypress to clear up their conversation paths. When you see the @ reply front and center in modern Twitter apps, then, raise a glass to Andersen's unintentionally avant garde microblogging.

Hard-shell cases have become arguably the most popular solutions for protecting your smartphone. They offer decent protection from dents, dings and scratches while adding negligible heft and girth to your device. As the go-to choice, the market has become flooded with offerings from countless manufacturers, ranging from colorful and fashion-centric to the conservative and refined. Two great options for the Galaxy Nexus are from Mobi Products and Seidio. Both have great reputations for building quality products, but which of their basic hard-shell cases is the best solution to protect your Nexus?

Steam's Android app has thrown up a selection of new categories that point to the possibility of productivity apps and other types of non-gaming software being sold in the near-future. Ranging from photo editing to accounting, there's ten categories that aren't available on the desktop version. It would open up yet another branch for Valve, which already offers books and movies through its online store, but until these categories get fleshed-out -- they're currently empty -- we're left guessing as to what it's likely to offer.

Sky is going online and ditching the contracts... sort of. The UK TV provider is launching a new service called Now TV that will take on more established properties like Lovefilm and Netflix. The streaming video service will initially be available on OS X, Windows and Android with iOS to follow shortly. By the end of the year it will also be available on Xbox, PS3, Roku and Youview. Initially Sky Movies will form the backbone of the service, with titles costing anywhere from £0.99 to £3.49 for playback, or you can purchase unlimited monthly access for £15. Eventually Now TV will expand to include Sky Sports, Sky 1 and plenty of other BSkyB owned properties. For more, check out the PR after the break.

Apple has posted on open letter on their website, addressing concerns over their recent removal of the EPA's EPEAT certification from 39 Mac-related products, and announcing Apple would be returning to the EPEAT certifications. Senior Vice-President of Hardware Engineering, Bob Mansfield, writes on Apple.com:
It’s important to know that our commitment to protecting the environment has never changed, and today it is as strong as ever. Apple makes the most environmentally responsible products in our industry. In fact, our engineering teams have worked incredibly hard over the years to make our products even more environmentally friendly, and much of our progress has come in areas not yet measured by EPEAT.
And:
We think the IEEE 1680.1 standard could be a much stronger force for protecting the environment if it were upgraded to include advancements [Apple has made]. This standard, on which the EPEAT rating system is based, is an important measuring stick for our industry and its products.
While the EPEAT standard is old and doesn't even consider the majority of Apple's business, namely iPhones and iPads, even given Apple's previous statement on the removal, Apple's removal of EPEAT had caused problems for government and private organizations that require the certification as part of their procurement process.
It's odd that Apple would leave and return so quickly and publicly, but it did cause a massive amount of attention, and that could have been the intent. It's possible Apple caved to pressure, but it's also possible EPEAT and Apple came to some kind of understanding.
A quick perusal of Apple.com shows EPEAT hasn't only returned, but is now listed on the Retina MacBook Pro page, which didn't seem possible previously. That may indicate Apple managed to come out of this exchange ahead of where they were before.
As to the open letter, Apple has struggled at times with response-driven public relations, and quick move like this, at the executive team level, could show they're improving in that regard. Or it could show Apple needed a way to reclaim and redirect the attention quickly.
The author of the letter, Bob Mansfield, has previously announced his intention to retire from Apple, but his service to company and reputation lend weight to an open letter, without putting it on Tim Cook's desk, and without leaving it for his successor, Dan Riccio to stumble over on day one.
So ends a quick and curious news cycle. Anyone running out to buy a newly re-EPEATed Mac or peripheral?
UPDATE: EPEAT CEO Robert Frisbee has posted an open letter as well, saying in part:
We look forward to Apple’s strong and creative thoughts on ongoing standards development. The outcome must reward new directions for both design and sustainability, simultaneously supporting the environment and the market for all manufacturers’ elegant and high-performance products.
An interesting question for EPEAT is how to reward innovations that are not yet envisioned with standards that are fixed at a point in time. Diverse goals, optional points awarded for innovations not yet described, and flexibility within specified parameters to make this happen are all on the table in EPEAT stakeholder discussions. And of course, timely standards development, as with newly created Imaging Equipment and Television standards, and the current refresh of the PC/Display standard, is critical as well.
In other words, wiggle room?
