Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-03-22

Heading out for a relatively quiet & pressure free day – #diigitalplanet done without me this week as they are at #sxsw while I have a life! #
@sleepydog happy birthday to you, too! [See how Twitter has replaced Facebook as the space for this?] #
@Suw always put ‘read to do list’ at top of to do list, do that first, tick it off, feel better… in reply to Suw #
Been reflecting on @cshirky’s essay on newspapers http://snurl.com/dxbx9 and I think we ask what journalism is for: http://snurl.com/dxbwj #
@hairydalek thanks – rebooted! in reply to hairydalek #
Just declared Bloglines bankruptcy and marked all as read in my feeds. It was the only way. #
@spraveenitpro it feels good! in reply to spraveenitpro #
@rooreynolds say hello to @cshirky from me! in reply to rooreynolds #
Been such a lovely evening with @mattkelland and @bluemaiya. wecanhazbooze! #
@Whatleydude the nice people who rip them as torrents do that for you, don’t you find.. another reason the legit channels fail customers! in reply to Whatleydude #
Bit of rushing around this morning, afternoon doing Film Festival planning at the Picturehouse and coffee with @kiwanja. Works for me. #
Breakfast with the boy at ‘Skivers’, our local cafe, after a successful interview for VIth form (him, not me!) #
@davidjs_uk I’d be proud to be patron of burblr.com 🙂 in reply to davidjs_uk #
Good time at the Picturehouse, now off to BBC Cambs to record a short piece on behavioural ads for tomorrow’s Media Show. #
RT @amonck: My two cents on Clay Shirky and newspapers http://bit.ly/17HoE8 #
@darrenwaters there’s never enough to say about it surely? 🙂 in reply to darrenwaters #
@jjn1 I’ll see your MP3 and raise you a video of James Boyle at the RSA – http://tinyurl.com/cjcj39 🙂 in reply to jjn1 #
Home and uploading videos for a project I worked on last month. So dull my brain may explode. #
Waking up to begin the day – unlike the #sxsw brits who all seem to have partied and crashed… #
I dreamed about a film festival with @sizemore & @documentally, and ended up actually planning this year’s Cambridge Festival. Thanks, guys! #
Swinging by @cambsartphouse, then off to @WysingArtsCentr for lunch and plotting. #
Fun at Wysing, now off to town – maybe the @cambsartsphouse again! #
Home, fish&chips, beer, season 1 of IT Crowd. Me and the boy are content. #
@sunildvr Deep Blue in Sawston… was Jack’s, still pretty good. in reply to sunildvr #
Pleased that @O2UKOfficial managed to sort me out with 02 – will be staying with them for a while longer. Nice to see they are listening. #
Early start tomorrow so will call it a day. Or night. #
Onto the 0645 and off to London. Sans coffee, sans wits, sans everything. #
@dgwbirch good luck- hope my post on the topic gives you hope that *journalism* might survive the end of newspapers! in reply to dgwbirch #
Off to British library for coffee and book plotting. #
Lunch at St Pancras. No passport so can’t nip over to Paris. Shame. #
Betjeman Arms -lovely spot. http://twitpic.com/28rcw #
@DCEFrance Lunch was nice, but would have rather been eating brie and baguette in paris, it’s true… another time! in reply to DCEFrance #
Completely unable to focus on anything this afternoon – early start, sunshine and I’m useless for the whole day. Hey ho. #
Upstairs at the Three Kings in Clerkenwell for openDemocracy event. Canhazbeer. http://twitpic.com/291zh #
Heading home. Tired. #
Waiting for 2115 at KX as the 2152 gets in only 3 mins earlier! Fun time talking database state with openDemocracy crew. #
@rohan_london do you trust your social network to tell you whether Dr Atomic is good, though? in reply to rohan_london #
Another day in London, recording #digitalplanet in advance as @garethm is away next week, then back for birthday supper with my daughter 🙂 #
@davidjwbailey we’ll have to find another excuse for a drink, and soon. in reply to davidjwbailey #
@emilybell I’m trying to be surprised by news that bankers are deceitful and underhand…:-) in reply to emilybell #
@Documentally is that ‘arrived at tuttle’ or ‘feel compelled to tuttle’:-) in reply to Documentally #
Speeding to Kings X and thence to Studio S6 (thanks for headsup @garethm) for early #digitalplanet recording. Don’t start without me… #
@samdownie tragically I am otherwise engaged so can’t make the tweetup… try @garethm! in reply to samdownie #
Evening draws on and I’m out to birthday supper with my girl… no doubt there will be maudlin tweets later. #
@jonhansen It’s my daughter’s 18th… far more important than *my*birthday… will pass on good wishes! in reply to jonhansen #
@BrightMeadow I’ll help. Complete BSG moratorium needed or else! in reply to BrightMeadow #
Lovely evening, now time to crash. #
@avantgame with you in the desperate need to avoid BSG spoilers. Can’t believe that its over, but it’s been a great journey. So say we all. in reply to avantgame #
Closing Twhirl until I’ve seen BSG E20. It’s been a long journey and I’m not risking anyspoilers! See you on the other side, ‘verse. #
about to watch the final episode of BSG. Silence please – but will be back in the fray tomorrow. #
BSG is done. And so am I. No spoilers but I am content. #
@emilybell agree that there are things that need ‘journalism’ more now than ever,and we need structures to deliver them. Need to create them in reply to emilybell #
Off to bed and to ponder the nature of things. #
@stephenfry just heard the rainforest appeal, which was eloquent & compelling -money on the way, you persuasive man! http://snurl.com/ebefw in reply to stephenfry #
Another sunny day here; another reason to feel hopeful. in reply to Joscelyn #
@LesleySmith happy to discuss BSG away from those who might be distressed by spoilers, but I think all was wrapped up that needed to be. in reply to LesleySmith #

@derots the ASCII art was made by http://www.glassgiant.com/ascii/ – nice and easy! in reply to derots #
Home, and writing. Still pondering BSG and feeling it was a good as I thought it was. May now have to begin watching from the start again. #
@flipperville there will be no BSG spoilers from me, by the gods, but I assure you the final episode delivers. in reply to flipperville #
