Twitter

On the weekend, after swimming, I love to read the papers and have my little espresso on the back verandah. A particular delight last Saturday was Richard Glover's piece about 'twitter' in the SMH. Now I discover that our PM 'Kevin 07' and our Premier Anna are both twittering.. it looks like so much puerile vanity publishing to me.

If I was going to follow anyone's Twitter, it would be Mary Ellen Bates (independent information pro and guru of search). Her pronouncements are always interesting, as is her piece on twitter from her Bates InfoTips newsletter.

I wonder what the correct term is for one who twitters? Just for the record, if anyone's interested, it's 9.45pm, I'm back from Spanish class, and am making dinner - stir fry, greens and rice.

Blogging doldrums

It's been nearly 2 years since I touched this blog, set up with a visit to Buenos Aires in mind. Once there I found I had no interest in adding to the blog - we were far too busy enjoying ourselves. So now will just add things occasionally as they happen, not necessarily about tango, but about work stuff and books and things that interest me, and as an exercise in documenting life in a haphazard way.
