What _is_ the bloody point of keyword-triggered re-tweeters? If I want to know, I’ll _search_.

Wow. Just got an email from virb.com. Surprised it made it through the cobwebs and spiders covering my utterly neglected account there.

Something tells me that the centre panel of today’s _Dilbert_ is going to get a lot of use as an icon on t’internet. http://bit.ly/bwyjUD

Anyway. I have a morning off for the glamourous task of having my boiler serviced. Luckily, by someone reliable, who will actually turn up.

@DrJoolz Noticed in passing: the RSS feed on http://bit.ly/d3lZDy seems to be broken; I get a server error when viewing it…

Goodness, I can always stretch out my morning’s faffing about to fill the space provided.

For an site designed to save images, Daily Booth says “Error Saving Image” far too often.

@LouisTrapani “What happened to Louis?” “Oh, sad thing: he sneezed while he was typing and engaged his MacBook’s self-destruct.”

@bananza Comments like that are why there should be a “like” button on Twitter.

@ahnlak Erp. That reminds me. Must water my plants.

Just delivered all of next door’s post. Wonder if the postman got all the way to the end of the street before noticing his off-by-one error.

Just picked up my very first set of black & white prints. Heading to Baristas for post-mortem.

via Echofon

Result. Have some good photos. http://twitpic.com/194h2s

Thanks all :) Will hopefully have time to scan a few of the best ones this evening.

Hmm. One of my automated backups has been mailing me an error message rather than a backup file. Still, that’s why I check these things…

Just uploaded some of my film results http://www.flickr.com/ph…

@benjohnbarnes I just asked my MP his thoughts about it. Handily, he’s on Facebook.

@EtceteraElla Well, at some point I’ll scan them in, and hopefully they’ll survive all the way to Flickr, and be CC non-commercial licensed.

Shagged-out starfish collapse on Buddleigh Slaterton beach! http://bit.ly/9rMlbH

Also: I can’t type “Salterton”.

@johnfbraun Presumably it depends to a certain degree on whether the fair share of dollars you’re allocated is positive or negative…

Trying an experiment this evening. From about five minutes’ time, you should be able to track my run, live, here: http://bit.ly/bqXxDP

via Echofon

…although it will not be a particularly interesting run; I just want to see if it works!

via Echofon

@KaveyF @l080100 @Lillput Ta for the feedback. Of various different kinds :)

via Echofon in reply to Kavey

Anyway. Next time I do that I’ll do it somewhere pretty in daylight and take better pictures ;)

@Killdozer Got a Mac? uudecode is right there in /usr/bin… But I wouldn’t recommend running whatever pops out!

via Echofon in reply to Killdozer

Mmm. Food. Food now.

via Echofon

Scanning is about the only process that unnecessarily annoys me more than printing.

via Echofon

@mhoulden I think I tried that once, in the mid-nineties. Don’t remember it being too traumatic.
