@dracos Brill, thanks - I’ll post it tomorrow!

I mean, that’s what I was interviewed about, so that’s what my bit is probably about.

That last RT… I haven’t heard it yet. It’s about Our Incredible Journey, acquihires, etc.


And suddenly there's me and @philgyford on CBC today. cbc.ca/spark/episodes… (We're at 26:00)

@tomscott @whoisdanw To me they sound like fake sincerity - over-emphatic attempts at attention-grabbing. (But, yes, nothing’s content free)

@blech Being trampled by a police horse, to keep the equestrian theme?

“BBC Networking Club” “Electronic Telegraph” #Cyber

@russelldavies @ianbetteridge @bobbiejohnson @revdancatt I’m afraid Ian is correct. (A space is required. :) )

@russelldavies Better: Slightly annoying tics, rather than MISLEADING INACCURACY. When’s the next edition out?

@Alby This.

Wow, just wow: Wait. So, it turns out. Look. Huh. [Twitter’s own annoying, content-free, verbal tics.]

@tomcoates @blech I always feel its occasional sane articles (”the war on drugs isn’t working!”) make people think its something it’s not.

@tomcoates @blech It makes me a little angry that the Economist seems like the default political/economic reading for many of my peers.

@russelldavies @rex3000 Yes! Er, shortly.
