Following a rather elongated conversation yesterday, Jason Barrett of TwitJobs Ltd offered me a guest post on the TwitJobs Blog to talk about my recommendations for using Twitter.
So, I wrote this post about my 5 Golden Rules For Twitter.
It seems to be getting well received, with lots of retweets, and a few people contacting me [...]

Well, it’s pretty well unanimous, isn’t it?
Yesterday I asked my friends and followers to choose a track we could all purchase (either digitally or physically) to try and stop the X Factor single getting the coveted Christmas No. 1.
I don’t hate X Factor – I applaud Simon Cowell for what he’s created. I just feel [...]

I don’t know how many of my readers watch X Factor – a large number I suspect, given the chatter on Twitter over the past few weeks.
But don’t you think it’s getting rather boring? For the last umpteen years, the Christmas No. 1 single has been an Celebrity Pop Factor Idol winner. It begs the [...]

OK, first off… a quick apology.
I was laid up in bed all week with a cold/flu type thing. Hallucinating while trying to sleep, sleeping while trying to be awake… you know how it goes. Whenever I get anything I’m usually a complete knock out, so I’m sorry for the silence everywhere.
The good news is I’m [...]

I’m off to UnConvention Swansea tomorrow with Jason.
It’s been in the diary for a while, and I have to say I’m really looking forward to it. We both learnt a lot from the last one, and we know more people this time so it should be a lot more relaxed.
Also, having seen Colin Consterdine on [...]

Was fiddling around with Facebook earlier and found a very funky language setting called “English (Pirate)”, and it’s hillarious!
If you go to your Account settings and click the language tab, you’ll be able to select it from the list of languages.
Give it a go… you’ll revert after a couple of days, but I guarantee you’ll [...]

For the past few weeks, I’ve been starting to think about ways in which I can make quick posts about certain things. Mostly just links that I find useful (or think will be useful to others), funny photos I find on the ‘net, you know the sort of thing…
I’ve started to use Facebook for this, [...]

A Tiny Thread

23 Aug 2009

There are lots of little services cropping up now that run off the back of Twitter. Things like Twistori, Twitoria, etc. But a lot of them are… well, a bit pointless really.
Today though another one came to my attention today that seems like it might be a bit more useful to the general Twitterverse.
A Tiny [...]

It was a great grand prix today – really exciting, and it was really great to see McLaren back to winning ways with Lewis!
For the first time I sat with the laptop while I watched the race, running TweetDeck to keep up-to-date with all the F1 fans and some of the teams who are constantly [...]

If, like me, you fancy yourself as a bit of a royalist, you might be interested in the Royal Household’s new Twitter account.
@BritishMonarchy aims to provide news and information regarding the royals’ engagements, events, etc. Sadly, the Queen herself will not be twittering, and neither will the rest of them (I bet Will does? Anyone [...]
