Crash bang wallop

One week ago I was involved in a nasty car crash. Don’t worry, all parties are alive and getting better.  As a result of this, unfortunate event,  I’m having to spend a bit of time at home to recover.

Now, I’m not good with unexpected time off work, especially when I can’t drive or really move about much.  In the upcoming week(s) though, between doctor visits and physio, I think I’ll avoid the internet and get back to some reading.

After far too long I’m starting to realise that the Web is detrimental to my learning.  It encourages reading of short and light articles.  My eyes seek hyperlinks and my mind is constantly getting distracted.  Time for a few cups of tea and a good book.

Giving twitter a go

I finally understand the point of twitter. It’s just a tiny status update of your life that anybody can see. Simple, useful and fun. It took me a while … but now I’m a bit hooked

A plea to the twitter team. I consider twitter to be feature complete, please don’t “do a facebook” and clog it full of vampire bites/IM clients and super fun tweets pro. Keep it clean, keep it crisp.
