Entering the tweetocracy
Posted by Con Coleman on 14 March 2011 - 2:46pm.
Having just run screaming into the twenty-first century by getting a smart phone, I've signed up with Twitter. Anyone care to throw down a line and help a poor boy who is stranded in a lonely sea? Cross my heart and hope to diet, I'll only ever tweet profound cosmic inspirations.
I'm @concoleman.

Edit: just TRIED to follow you. Can't find you. You're not hiding, are you?
Not sure
Is there a setting I might have overlooked?
In your profile settings...
...there's a checkbox marked "protect my Tweets". That's not ticked, is it?
Nope...
...not ticked.
Somebody else has managed to follow me, but I am a complete beginner so I might have messed up.
Ah!
Gotcha. Must've been a glitch in the Matrix.
Success
Thanks, Bob!
I've followed you too
Welcome and enjoy.

Just noticed that Latitude is trending on twitter just now, something to do with the imminent 7pm announcement (at the time of writing, obviously)
Preaching
Look. You've got it all wrong. You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody! You've got to think for yourselves. You're all individuals!
However, if you change your mind, I can be found at @tjdennett.
Don't expect any miracles though.

I'll follow all you good, good people who've given their names on here when I'm not setting the world to rights in 140 characters or less on my telephone, but for now that's my username for ruminations on life, love and fourth division football.
Ok Con.
That's me stalking.
Now following
