I'll keep you updated on it, though.<BR/><BR/>Adrian - I think there's a facility to post to Twitter using your mobile, but that's not the only way. The other similarity to texting is that you only get 140 characters to say what needs to be said. I had a go at setting up my mobile but it didn't work first time around, so I left it. I'm just posting straight from the website. That'll do me for now.<BR/><BR/>Marco - Nice diversion. And only one person spotted it for what it was! Of course, you can't shit a shitter can you?<BR/><BR/>You know, I thought our Colman was lying low lately. You might be right on the holiday front. Wonder how he's faring. And if he opted against the Speedos.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/><BR/>gbGerard Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18301381067485712366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160907056447793603.post-38384177357870234682009-03-14T11:35:00.000+00:002009-03-14T11:35:00.000+00:00Last night I was out for a reunion with friends fr...Last night I was out for a reunion with friends from my old Amnesty group- some of them I still see frequently, others now live elsewhere and I see more rarely<BR/>It appears the reunion was prompted by facebook- turns out I was the only one who had to be contacted through primitive means like telephone. They told me basically I'm the only one in the province who hasn't yet joined.<BR/>(not that I couldnt have guessed- every bar in my hometown has its own "friends of" facebook group, even the old ladies who make cakes for the church have one)<BR/><BR/>Since I felt so backward and primitive I told them "nah, Facebook is too dispersive, I' m thinking of joining twitter" and I've silenced them for a while.<BR/>Later one of the girls said to me she uses the same technique at work with Ibrahimovic- when her colleagues start debating soccer she says something like "I don't think Ibrahimovic looked very sharp in the last match" they nod in agreement and she feels she has contributed to the conversation without betraying her complete lack of interest.<BR/><BR/>v-word: Luton, which makes me think that someone must have finished his diet and earned his vacation...marcohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10505120530405862702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160907056447793603.post-9969806785516714482009-03-14T03:10:00.000+00:002009-03-14T03:10:00.000+00:00I do love it.
