Follow Friday – 4 Sept 09

September 4th, 2009 § 0 comments § permalink

A sprinkling of favourites for my first official Follow Friday blog post.  Enjoy…

@danworth - Journalistic chap who tweets those interesting thoughts that pop up throughout the day.  Also has an interesting blog on things like books, journalism and crisps.

Example Tweet:

In movies most aliens never wear clothes or shoes. Why do we think they will evolve to inter-space travel and yet remain naked?4:14 PM Sep 2nd from web


@brokenbottleboy - Having spent a stolen weekend in Reading with this chap, I can attest that he “knows things”.  Expect a regular stream of solid tech content and pay a visit to his tumblr blog for the best use I’ve ever seen of the platform.

Example Tweet:

The Chinese translation of McDonalds’ I’m Lovin It slogan is “I just like it” That’s much nearer my real feelings.about 19 hours ago from twhirl

@AsimQureshi – Fellow AxiCommer downstairs on the consumer team.  Regular and jovial comments on tech news with a chirpy slant and the odd football tweet thrown in…

Example Tweet:

Could this be the BEST iPhone advert…ever? http://tr.im/xNgXI think so! (via @thenextweb)about 18 hours ago from web

Are you Content not to Contend with Content?

robinHad a conversation with a colleague about Twitter today. She was claiming that you can't say anything worthwhile in 140 characters, a suggestion made by many that I've tried to explain the popular microblog to. I'd argue it depends what you're trying to say and why.

In casual conversation, ideas flow easily; often so little is said that many sentences remain incomplete, superceded by understanding as the speakers move swiftly on. Twitter is a bit like this.
