BBC - Radio 4 Blog: Reith 2009 in the Twitterverse

Really interesting experiment between a very traditional, and respected, radio program and trying to engage with audiences.

Remember The Milk with Twitter - now I won't forget anything!

..let alone the milk.

I am trying to use this app. I really am. I was never a Filo-Fax kinda guy and To Do lists just seem to get forgotten by me. I was writing out a list of things on a pad last Friday and thought I really really should give this site another go. Everyone raves about it.

Some nice things I have recently discovered about it are you can print a nice looking schedule of 'to-dos', I like how it is easy to set a date - you just have to type 'Wednesday' or July 12 and it works it out. The grouping or tagging is good as is sharing with others. I have it as a sidebar box in Google but I reckon the really killer would be to have it on my phone (alas not an iPhone but a Nokia) - they probably do I just need to get it happening.

But ultimately, like all apps I use (Posterous, Ning etc) is to subscribe to the blog and that's what I'll do.

A great film Le Mans - the other great French race

Le Mans - starringSteve McQueen. I saw this running in the video shop last weekend and I had to get it. 1971 Porsche vs Ferarri (my son's slot car). Not a lot of dialogue, a hell of a lot of racing scenes (as cut up here) and a thin plot. God old films are great.

A great Australian group that are, thankfully, not being forgotten.
