Twitter-too

I’m trying Twitter again (you can find me over here), mainly because more of my friends have started using Facebook again and I can update my Facebook status via Twitter, so I may as well use Twitter.  You’ll see updates on the right side bar, and a daily summary of my tweets as a blog post (unless I get pissed off with that feature).

It’s never too early to decide you’re going to be famous and need a Twitter-Policy, so here’s mine, in advance of me being famous and having 300,000 followers.

  1. If you follow me, I may not necessarily follow you back.  Don’t be sad, you’re not alone.
  2. I promise never to write a blog post saying I’ve twittered something or tweet saying I wrote a blog post.  I understand the two audiences are not the same and you can choose which of my streams of pointless conciousness to decide to read and which you don’t, I won’t hate you.
  3. The exception to #2 is that until I get bored, I’ll use the automated feature to collect all my tweets into a daily post.
  4. #3 is because I also promise to stop blogging one line thoughts which should have been tweets, but I still want everything collected in one place at the end of the day.
  5. #4 is really because at the core I’m a narcissistic control freak.

PS3 Squared

We bought a second controller for the PS3 today (took back some games we had for the Wii, got £24 for them, and used that to aid in the purchase of the controller, and bought our Tesco groceries with the £25 we had in Tesco vouchers, and used the £25 we saved on the controller, and Lego Indiana Jones).  We’ve spent about 4 hours playing LittleBigPlanet two player and I’ve not laughed and cried so hard in years.

Lego Indiana Jones is fun two player, but it’s also more high-stress than LBP – which is just fun and crazy and stomach-achingly funny at times.

Trilogy Meter

The post is a few weeks old, but I liked this Trilogy Meter post over at Dan Meth’s blog.

So here’s the question,  what’s the deal with the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies?  Why do *you* think they were so bad (assuming you agree with the post linked, and the prevailing opinion on the ‘net).

I’m truly confused, I’d love to hear some constructive comments on why they were so terrible.

It’s a bright day

Is it me, or is spring already arriving in the UK?  The last few days have been very spring-like, drizzly rain, bright days, very mild considering the previous few weeks (it was 13C yesterday).  I guess nature will laugh at my presumption and tomorrow we’ll be neck deep in snow and hail or something.

The garden is certainly gearing up, snow drops in the front and the grass is looking pretty green after that batch of snow.
