Too many tweets 

Comments:2   Add your comment
Before you all shout, 'Hey Al, you're not blabbing on about Twitter again are you!', let me get in quickly that I'm not becoming obsessed, just mildly fascinated.

As I write, it's just after midnight here in Edinburgh and the truth is, even if I wanted to, I can't give a tweet. Yes, folks, Twitter's in meltdown citing serious over capacity. Sometimes you can get in, sometimes you can't.

Which must mean that tons of people from the saddos like me sitting up late in Edinburgh and those just waking up in Silicon Valley are finding the time in their busy days for a bit of micro-blogging.

Today I'm being followed by Jarret Coon from Missouri, a self-confessed "14 year old technologist and financial guru who is trying to make his way online". I'm number 87,506 on his list. Jarret, mate, try and make your way outside where there are trees to climb, footballs to kick and girls to explore. There's plenty of time to be a financial guru but you don't get away with being a kid for very long.

On the positive side, Vicky_Taylor and goodstuff79 are living, breathing (and occasionally twittering) evidence that nice people out there are reading and taking note.

At BR we completely support your growing fascination. I'm still really enjoying Twitter and am very interested to see where it will all go.

It's odd fun indeed but fun nonetheless. I'm drawn to it like a moth to the flame ...
