Hi James,
Thought I’d reply to Helen Blaby,

Think of Twitter as a rolling cocktail party or networking event, except instead of having to put up with those boring people who love the sound of their own voice, you just turn them off… so you get to choose your circle, and refine it day by day. You can also dip in and out, whenever you can, no-one minds.

Then when you need something you can just mention… by the way guys, I’m looking for… can you help?

And they always do.
Worth being one of those helpers, don’t you think?

I agree with Stephen Fry (who is following me too) that this is the best Twitter app yet – discarded a few freebies for this one and haven’t looked back. It does absolutely everything you need to be able to do on the move and will be a bonus over Christmas while I’m away. Great blog with fab photos too – thanks James!

It might just be me, it usually is….but I really can’t see the point of these things. If I want to know what my friends are thinking, or doing, I’ll ask them…can’t think of anything worse than hearing from them constantly about stuff.

I think the “Stephen Fry is now following you on Twitter!” email was one of the most pleasant things I got in my inbox this year.

Yipee! Thanks for that James and Steve.

Checking out the search results you posted via the link above, pp13 of them looks like I was the first to tweet @stephenfry about Tweetie.

Do I get a prize?

Oh, okay then. ;-

Nice blog by the way.
