Foomandoonian: Going to see a lecture tonight at @ffotogallery 'Confessions of a Recovering Data Collector': http://is.gd/4MYDc (thx @MarkHeseltine)
Foomandoonian: @coris_leachman I have the same issue with LinkedIn. I just don't want to bug people!
Foomandoonian: @Suitov Yeah, I watched a Bang Goes the Theory. Ah, well.
Foomandoonian: @Kyanos Oh noes! Lift baby, lift!
Foomandoonian: @xgfx The city centre on a Saturday seems to have the highest concentration. Otherwise, the level is usually acceptable. :)
Foomandoonian: @aboyandhisprime The Aristocrats documentary was pretty much that. I wonder how many complaints that got when it was broadcast?
Foomandoonian: #thingaweek is in the oven.
Foomandoonian: RT @plasticbagUK: Twitter's launching a geolocation API. Neat! http://bit.ly/162rAc
Foomandoonian: Having egg fried rice and sausages tonight. Actually been looking forward to it all day. It better be as nice as I imagine!
Foomandoonian: @Nwdls Wow, there's a LOT of comment spam on that page!
Foomandoonian: My tumblelog is always cool, but particularly so at the moment: http://foomandoonian.net/
Foomandoonian: The likes of the BBC need to get realtime like @BreakingNews - They can keep authority by constantly updating the facts as they come in...
Foomandoonian: @wmjohn Oh, don't get me started! I feel like I'm the only one who can walk around town paying any attention to others at all.
Foomandoonian: Bugger, I really liked tr.im the most: RT @davewiner: tr.im announces shutdown (Scripting News). http://tr.im/w6Qb
Foomandoonian: @ninjamonk I'm a lot like you in that I'm interested in too many things. What I really want from you is a web based interactive fiction CMS!
Foomandoonian: Droste experiment http://post.ly/1oTW
Foomandoonian: Headed to the tweetup with @realityminus3 - hoping to avoid the Big Weekend rubbish.
Foomandoonian: Easily worth a #followfriday: @flickr for being big with the interestingness.
Foomandoonian: New footograph: Titanic’s drydock, Belfast. http://tr.im/ue1K
Foomandoonian: New footograph: Abstract taken using my super-complicated ‘shakey iphone’ method. http://tr.im/tKIi
Foomandoonian: @leelowe Use Netvibes or Tiddlywiki instead. Although simple is very appealing.
Foomandoonian: @SarahNicholas I know I am super-thrilled for you. I'm sure @JohnGreenaway must be also.
Foomandoonian: @o2 Will a holiday from Wales to N.Ireland put me in data-roaming territory then? I don't want any surprise charges if I can help it!
Foomandoonian: C'mon Friday, do your thing and finish!
Foomandoonian: @WelshITGirl I'm not able to go to the #photomarathon opening either. :(
Foomandoonian: @dansumption Well, good to see you back. And in such style.
Foomandoonian: Anyone know what the Twitter widget is that the #mariomarathon guys are using?
Foomandoonian: Watching Wall-E. Love the designs of this film.
Foomandoonian: A 143 character Tweet: http://twitter.com/linuxalive/status/2586125457 - So what are the rules for exceeding the 140 limit?
Foomandoonian: @ninjamonk Much better use could be made of favourites I think. Maybe some app could show the way… a column for my friends favourites?
Foomandoonian: @garrytan I don't really see how you could implement this, without resorting to a multicolumn view like TweetDeck.... http://post.ly/197m
Foomandoonian: iMated: http://dtkiv.tk #iphone (via @themeekshall)
Foomandoonian: • @mitchellmckenna Hey, thanks. I can honestly return that #followfriday to you. A++ Tweeter, excellent service! Would RT from again.
Foomandoonian: @matthilde Yeah, five episodes of Torchwood in a row I think.
Foomandoonian: @HonkeyKong Yeah, but it's always an option. People may forget or not realise, but they can turn that off.
Foomandoonian: Traffic leaving Cardiff is queued up for miles. What was going on?
Foomandoonian: We have our first Thing!: http://tr.im/thing - Nice work @themeekshall :)
Foomandoonian: RT @dorkomatic: Who would have thought that S.Wales would be a hotbed of steampunkery: http://tr.im/steamrepublic [Cool!]
Foomandoonian: Ladies and germs, this is tweet #4555 - I thank you all: http://tr.im/friday (Consider this a bonus #followfriday too) Catch you later. Thx.
Foomandoonian: @LW_Will The iPlayer has been flash now for some time, with a P2P download option for higher quality. It keeps getting better too.
Foomandoonian: My grandfather's old camera: http://twitpic.com/7n6q1- I seem to recall it takes pretty good pictures.
Foomandoonian: @themeekshall Thanks, but I actually have a fisheye. I fancied the Holga with 35mm mod. Otherwise I have an old SLR in storage.
Foomandoonian: @johnhood No. In fact, I think I may pass the 3GS entirely. Maybe the 4 will be subsidised. You tempted?
Foomandoonian: We are approaching 2,147,483,648 tweets. You know what that means, don't you? http://tr.im/twitpocalypse See: http://www.twitpocalypse.com/
Foomandoonian: @MissBallantyne Having slept on it, I think I will wait out my contract, and maybe skip the 3GS entirely. The 3.0 software should do me.
Foomandoonian: @humantorch I'm not really a developer, but Firebug still makes picking apart styling issues and exploring code so much easier.
Foomandoonian: Ten Commandments for Twitter: http://tr.im/twencommands (by @paulcarr on The Guardian) #amen
Foomandoonian: @digitalst Digital storytelling sounds very interesting, I'd quite like to try making a few myself I think!
Foomandoonian: There is a user who RTs pretty much every @bbcwales tweet, which really clouds up my replies. But he does have 2,000 followers. Good or bad?
Foomandoonian: @thierryz @Famous_Twit kept following and unfollowing me to get my attention too. I ended up blocking them. Spammers.
Foomandoonian: @wembley In what way is this a serious play for you?
Foomandoonian: @johnhood I'll look for the transcript.
Foomandoonian: @mclaren_jk I guess I'm lucky to have 2.0 problems. I fixed the Yahoo Pipes one though, so the BBC Wales feed now seperates News and Sport.
Foomandoonian: I give up: What URL do I give Twitterific for the 'Add bookmark' option? delicious.com/something? #halp
Foomandoonian: @BenjaminDavies Understood.
Foomandoonian: @BenjaminDavies You didn't just see Star Trek in Showcase, did you?
Foomandoonian: @UKProgressive Nope. But you're not a bajillion miles away. :)
Foomandoonian: This has been today: http://twitpic.com/5ajp5 - I have not ventured out.
Foomandoonian: @travist120 Nah, TwitterFon has had a contact list since I've been using it - wish there was one Twitter app that had ALL the cool features!
Foomandoonian: RT this if you agree with Twitter's decision to hide replies to people you don't follow #leavereplies #twitterwin #hashtagconfusion
Foomandoonian: @dannytatom Conservapedia is pretty damn maddening!
Foomandoonian: found the geocache Celtic Cache 1 Flying the Flag for Wales http://coord.info/GC1JME0
Foomandoonian: @OrenTodoros It sucks, but it's not wrong. I'm still publishing my thoughts, and I should be accountable for what I say.
Foomandoonian: @imjustcreative Dexter hasn't ended on a cliffhanger yet. They're good that way. Just hints at what's to come. Great show!
Foomandoonian: Heroes should make an account for Hiro Nakamura - Twitter is big in Japan and he's a funny geeky character. Great fit. (idea via @emmajgwen)
Foomandoonian: @Topify Ah, I didn't realise there was an alternative to the forwarding method! Will investigate, thx.
Foomandoonian: A quick rant about linking on Twitter http://post.ly/T97

Foomandoonian: Doom, Myst and Worms all headed for the iPhone! I want to see Cannon Fodder and Monkey Island too.
Foomandoonian: @JohnGreenaway Yeah, I like that idea. Seems like there is a lot of potential.
Foomandoonian: I just did a search for 'open source url shortener' and got my own blog as #1 result. That's happened before! Maybe I should restart it...
Foomandoonian: @edrichmond Seriously? I have a few ideas!
Foomandoonian: @orbitingfrog I am so jazzed about the new Star Trek movie! I gather there is a fancy dress do being organized at the Vulcan. Heh.
Foomandoonian: @LW_Will When I was a kid, British SF mags were insubstantial and imports were rare. Starlog was a real treat when I could get one.
Foomandoonian: @mr_white1967 Does IRL Connect DM spam all your Twitter contacts when you sign up, or am I just lucky?
Foomandoonian: Foggy day. (taken on my helgaPhone) http://twitpic.com/2r7it
Foomandoonian: Between the iTunes app and RSS Player, the podcast experience is still pretty poor on the iPhone. A bit of both together please.
Foomandoonian: Oh, @misterwong_com! I do like using you, but you need to be up more!
Foomandoonian: Just signed up at iTunes and bought my first - and probably last tune, just to test things: Arcade Fire - Wake Up. ♫ http://blip.fm/~3i28z
Foomandoonian: @ruskin147 Typo alert: 'wtheher' in your tweet and 'whther' in the article itself... They can't both be right ;)
Foomandoonian: My e-Penis is 27.68cm http://www.epenis.nl

Foomandoonian: Trying to decide what to do with my Munny http://post.ly/4Rw
Foomandoonian: Everything's amazing, but nobody's happy: http://is.gd/kdtE (via @DuckDuNormandie via @GeoffLloyd ) Hilarious because it's true!
Foomandoonian: Just finished an icon set for a small open source project: http://is.gd/kJPW Feedback appreciated, but am headed for bedmobile right now! :)
Foomandoonian: @stml How do you get all tweets, ever? The services I have seen don't promise to go back all the way...

Foomandoonian: Gods, Richard & Judy are going to be talking about Twitter! Philip Schofield, work colleagues and girlfriend all now on here. Where's next?
Foomandoonian: @loudmouthman So he shouldn't need to come across as so serious about this whole 'change' business any more? I think I missed your point...
Foomandoonian: The last of my #bluemonday trilogy of tunes that are oddly uplifting ♫ http://blip.fm/~1o7vx
Foomandoonian: @AndrewChapman Try http://www.twitbacks.com/ http://www.mytweetspace.com/ or just use PowerPoint and make it really suck.
Foomandoonian: Anyone not following @HotAmishChick really ought to!
Foomandoonian: RT @RC6750: http://twitpic.com/12h3y (That's so cute!)
Foomandoonian: @JohnGreenaway Nice pitch! You do bad photography too I see. :)
Foomandoonian: I think Twitter should drop users who haven't updated in, say, six months. Are there any reasons this wouldn't be a good idea?

Foomandoonian: @ninjamonk Oh! I really wasnt thinking of this as being 'newsworthy' in the slightest. Shame Posterous seems to have gone down...
Foomandoonian: I just installed Chromium on Ubuntu… and then uninstalled it straight away! It looks pretty bodged - I'll wait for the proper Linux version.
Foomandoonian: Thinking about trying #!CrunchBang Linux on my Eee. (I like how the name is a hashtag too) - http://crunchbanglinux.org/
Foomandoonian: @colinmathews Tweetake exports CSV (Comma Separated Variables) so you can read it in a text editor, Excel, Open Office (or anything!)
Foomandoonian: There's a creepy homeless guy hanging outside of an infants school, smoking and asking for change. :-(
Foomandoonian: @cosita Well, I want it to work with Linux, if at all possible! Research required...
