If you like, Twitter me...

I've made a Twitter account, with Twitter you can follow some1 and people can follow you.. its a bit like the statusbar in facebook or the WWW in hyves, but then WAY MORE dynamic.
You can follow or post through the web or like I have one of the many widgets (Twitterrific), or apps you can install on your desktop or iPhone to Twitter your daily needs and shares.

The main reason for me was to follow some of the podcast creators ive been listening to and be able to direct connect to them if necessary.. but its fun sharing daily points, plus it gives you the chance to get an answer quickly about matters you are working on, also focusing on some outstanding designers that I would like to follow..

Anyway twitter what you want!

The most entertaining singleplayer game i've ever played is getting a sequel, and the trailers look super stunning!

Just found out some nifty shortcuts for the iPhone:

1) Double-click the 'home' button even when the phone is still locked and it gives you direct access to your iPod controls or in some cases your Favorites (v1.1). You can change this in - Settings\General\Home button.

2) Take a screenshot from your iphone from anything your looking at, by holding down the 'home' button and the 'sleep' button at the same time. You hear the photocamera click like on OSX then you can find your screenshot in your camera roll under pictures. This works only after firmware v2.0 update.

3) When scrolling far down in for example contacts, you can quickly go to the top again by tapping the grey top bar that holds the time etc. This works in Safari too.
