To those who auto-post their Tumblr to Twitter: DON’T! Or make it fit in 140 characters. I hate constantly reading truncated … tweets! If this means putting titles on your Tumblr entries like bloggers figured out how to do ten years ago, so be it.
I’ve resorted to filtering out all tweets that include "…", but I worry I’m missing some of your important commentary, such as this.
Your Twitter friend :)

The proprietor of GuiltyCubicles listed all the reasons why she had an awesome Friday. While her list is indeed impressive, I am confident my lone positive event from today still puts me ahead: I got tweet from Cory Doctorow!
It’s amazing how such a [tiny] tip of the hat can make my evening :)
By themselves these two interest rate stories about Australia and Canada wouldn’t really be worth mentioning here, but when they appeared in my Twitter client together they made for an interesting contrast:
CBC News: Bank of Canada raises interest rate to 0.5% Read more:… http://bit.ly/cAB6Cx
SBS News: Reserve Bank of Australia keeps interest rates on hold at 4.5 per cent http://bit.ly/ag0E4B
WOW! I suppose I should move to Canada and buy an apartment, eh!

I like it! Credit to Tom on Twitter, the image is from his Twitter page background.
Not doing physics in high school still remains one of my biggest regrets; I couldn’t do it because the timetable clashed with two of my computer subjects. Chemistry was deeply interesting, but physics is on an entirely different plane of fascination for me. There is so much stunning beauty in physics.
Okay everybody, calm down. CALM DOWN I SAID! Everything is going to be okay, just CALM DOWN!!! Repressed memories from 2007/08 flooding back! CALM DOWN EVERYONE! But I don’t think I can sir. AAAARGH!
It’s exactly what John C. Dvorak and my high school English teacher Mrs Gravina said: facts may be concrete but how you choose to phrase them in a report can have a dramatic effect on their interpretation.
The folks at Alltop reported that only 7% of Americans use Twitter. While they were obviously unimpressed by its market share, I had always thought the percentage was much, much lower, so I wrote the heading for this post to convey the same data but with a meaning I prefer. I hope I don’t get sued by Burger King.
Why is it that interesting things happen in Adelaide when I’m away? And can we say traditional news is dead yet?
As I was uploading a photo to TwitPic this afternoon, I saw this photo by micbradford on the front page and felt an overwhelming urge to write a caption. I’d like to meet this guy, I love his shirt.
