Ok, I’m hooked on Twitter. I realize that in the fast paced Web 2.0 world Twitter might be old news by now, but a lot of people who read my blog probably still haven’t heard about it.
My phone now beeps regularly with SMS’s telling me what my friends and colleagues are up to, or i can use this Adobe Apollo app, and I feel compelled now to share with the rest of the world even more day to day information about my activities. I’m not sure why anyone cares, but i get a kick out of it.
Don’t know what Twitter is? Go have a look, sign up and add me as a friend! Meanwhile I’ve also added the last 3 twitter posts on to the right hand side of my blog so you can see the last few things i’ve been up to.

Night two in Wellington, NZ. Slightly colder than i’d expect but much warmer than i’ve experienced here in the past. Flying in was about average, not sure if you’ve seen this video on youtube showing the fun you can have when landing here, but there was even more excitement when we were about a metre from the gate…
Recorded announcement: “This is an emergency announcement, please return to your seat, extinguish cigarettes (what the?) and pull down the oxygen masks from above. We are dropping in altitude rapidly…” umm hello? we were on the ground… which is lucky coz i think i would have made a mess if it happened 5 minutes earlier. Anyway, the captain announced that there was a system failure but he had overridden it to stop the alarm… let me off!
Anyway, Wellington is a great place and its good to visit once again. Oh, and for those of you who have heard me recommend “Great India” as the best Indian restaurant in both Wellington and the world, next time you’re here give “The Balti House” a try. Fantastic food!
