Yet More Nonsense :: 22/02/10 ~19:15 :: Comments: 2

That awful little bit above this post is a live Twitter feed for me. I've decided to put it up there for 2 reasons - firstly, because I want to start using Twitter a bit more but I have sod all impetus to do so, and secondly because there's occasionally stuff I want to put up on here but it's entirely too insignificant or unworthwhile to be a blog post of it's own. And I refuse to put stuff like that in my Facebook status either, since I have people like my old boss on there, who I'd rather had at least the impression that I'm professional and intelligent. Even if that's a massive pretence at times! But yeah, microblogging I think is the wonderful new term for it? Whatever, it's an awful idea, so I'm using it.
I might take the twitter feed down eventually. Personally I don't like it at all, it's clunky and it's in the way, but with my site layout there's really nowhere better and obvious for it, and I refuse to change my layout for the sake of bloody twitter. But also if this doesn't actually encourage me to start using it again, then I'll probably just remove it from here. As it is, prior to the update on there about me putting this up tonight, the 4th post (I'm sorry, I will not call them 'tweets') was 10 days ago. I follow a few people on Twitter, the updates I actually check for most are to do with shoe/clothing places sadly though. I'm still a bit derisory towards Twitter in general, it's a good idea in theory but a horrible one in reality, and I don't care about a lot of the stuff I see flicking up there every day. But I can see its benefits, and I'm sure I'll fill it with complete crap before long. So yes, this is a trial run for it really.
In other irrelevant news, I'm going to once again attempt to update my shoes page in a while. I've got new stuff to add, and I need to get the rest of them sodding photographed. I'll also try to get another post up about file recovery when I can find the motivation to go through all that again.

A degree of praise for Twitter. I managed to get Assemblage 23's setlist from their Glasgow gig through it, by talking to the group. Their setlist isn't up anywhere else that I've found, so I'm certainly glad to have been able to get it. Not going to repost it anywhere though, as the band asked me not to since they've not done the US part of their tour yet.
