Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-03-29

  • Approaching #oxfordgeeknight: my brain has filled up. I'm now no good for anything, but still unable to relax, even when all's going well. #
  • Weather changes back to spring. As long as it doesn't rain when I'm actually on my bike. #
  • @wesayso I long for the days when they had Tom Baker reading out SMSes, and people got him to sing songs: http://qurl.com/sg5gc #
  • @garrettc the right command is to go into the directory that's under CVS and type "svn import . https://.../new-svn/" Problem solved. #
  • RT @Jazza_UK Oxford Geek Night 11 this Wednesday at the Jericho Tavern. http://snurl.com/ee4hu #ogn #oxfordgeeks #
  • Beautiful if gusty journey home. Wind behind me mostly anyway, so at least being blown along makes a change from struggling into headwinds. #
  • Swede gratin. Abel & Cole, sort it out. #
  • @rhodri I'll have to make do with "Our Lancastrian Churl". #
  • @darwin @jonleighton this the march? Thinking about it: "climate, jobs and justice" only works if Unite stay at home: http://qurl.com/566dq #
  • #torchboxteapot is brightening up the afternoon, but not as much as @jwebster's flapjacks. Must finish them before all the Unit-9ers turn up #
  • Anyone want to contribute a 60-second Pitch for #ogn tomorrow ? Get up on your soapbox and say whatever you want. http://qurl.com/zqfm2 #
  • @natbat thanks so much for a great talk at #ogn. Your triumphal return! Sorry I didn't get a chance to chat more once things were under way. #
  • In fact, thanks to everyone for a fantastic #ogn - @natbat, Mike, @torchbox, Pearson, Carsonified, microslotters and pitchers. #
  • @crouchingbadger as Skunk Anansie once sang, every day hurts in Littlemore. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! YOU'RE TOO KIND! I'M HERE ALL WEEK! #
  • @bluedevi @j4 and @omassey's trip to Dublin made me really want to make that trip. #
  • Transfixed by a wagtail, which is itself confused by another wagtail it sees in a car's mirror, but which disappears when it goes to say hi. #
  • RT @leisa We Need You! Get involved NOW (not next week!) & help make Drupal7 UX a great user experience. http://is.gd/p3lH #drupalusability #
  • RT @sccoalition #g20rally you don't have to turn up to all of it, and there's post-rally party w/Earth Hour http://qurl.com/8v5my #earthhour #
  • @rhodri and you don't look a day over 13,635 days old, the age at which Vincent Van Gogh died. I've just outlived Robert Jay Mathews. Great. #
  • @rhodri why is keeping it real so hard to distinguish from keeping it unrealistic? #
  • What would the FT look like in 2020? Grab your timewarp paper copy now if you're in the City, or check out http://ft2020.com/ #ft2020 #
  • Public Service Broadcast. 1. webdav is not a real flesystem. 2. you can't develop on it. 3. you *can* do ssh on windows servers with Cygwin. #
  • Feeling like a wrung-out rag. No G20 in London for me today, but we'll observe Earth Hour. http://qurl.com/8v5my #
  • On the upside, I'm one of Adam & Jo's Black Squadron. Well, paisley squadron: I can't say my pyjamas are the height of fashion, @adambuxton1 #
  • The first climate rally that the mainstream media actually makes a fuss of and I'm missing it. Something to not tell my grandkids about. #
  • The #earthhour website sort of implies all you need to do is turn your lights off. And... plan a party? http://earthhour.wwf.org.uk/ #
  • Vodafone customers get SMS tweets as part of their bundle, apparently. Text to 86444. #twitter #
  • @mattmcd beeswax = renewable; depending on embedded CO2, could count as carbon-neutral in long term, I think. Far less than bulbs anyway. #
  • @petecooper I don't see it so much as a placebo as a way of mainstreaming greenness. "My annual reminder... we can all be something bigger." #
  • @petecooper but then I'm sad to not have had the hwyl to make the #g20rally , so #earthhour is all I've got...! #
  • @petecooper I know what you mean. But global campaigns=baby steps: gets people used to the principles. Is there time for baby steps, though? #
  • @petecooper my feeling is, even if you're already supergreen, turn off electricity, light some candles, have a beer and relax for an hour. #
  • RT @ade great article on why Earth Hour is more than just a publicity stunt, on Time.com: http://tinyurl.com/3bgpjl #
  • All off for #earthhour: windup radio, candles, fusebox tripped. Beer and curry. #
  • Urgh. I hate Saturdays. #
  • Urgh. I hate Sundays. #
  • @purserhallard they're just jealous of my all-week-long mojo. Where's the tea? #
  • The in-browser Javascript security model will always get you in the end. #
  • @dariengs don't worry - Javascript programming is mostly character-driven anyway! [picks self up off floor; wipes eyes] #
