My Twitter Is Alive!

Mark — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 22:58:03 +0000

Yes, I have a Twitter account, nearly as old as Twitter itself, but I never really used it much, the most action it had seen was relaying some posts from here etc. But the Twitter bug has got me....

It all started when I decided to install the Twitter app in my phone, just for some giggles, but this was my mistake (opportunity?). I'm hooked.....

So from here on, I will be using my Twitter as a personal (but not too personal ) account, and also as a gateway for Elf Knows It.

So what are you waiting for!..Get your derrière over to Twitter and follow me! (Or just click the button below) And don't be shy! I'd love to hear off you guys over the Twitter box!

Get your space boots on! I stumbled across this video today, and it is awesome! It's a time-lapse taken from the front of the International Space Station as it orbits our planet at night.

Visible cities, countries and landmarks include, in order: Vancouver Island Victoria Vancouver Seattle Portland San Fransisco Los Angeles. Phoenix. Multiple cities in Texas New Mexico and Mexico. Mexico City The Gulf of Mexico The Yucatan Peninsula Lightning in the Pacific Ocean Guatemala Panama Columbia Ecuador Peru Chile and the Amazon. Also visible is the earths ionosphere (thin yellow line) and the stars of our galaxy.

I joined up on Google+ back in July, but I have recently decided to start making better use of it, personally I find it warmer, more comfortable and more satisfying to use than Facebook....

So I will be taking most of my personal account activity over there, so be sure to add me to your Circles!
