From Twitter 11-08-2010



@laura_marieee Looking miserable, raining but not currently torrential which I guess is something.
@Documentally I was a a work meeting last thu & one of the guys had one of those binary watches - now that's more nerdy IMO!
@JoC00per Oh cool. I've never been on. Would love to fly to new york, spend a w/end / week there and sail back on the QM2
@JoC00per Have a great trip
From my timeline I'm convinced it's raining in the entire podverse
@miss_cheriexx :-( vit.c/echinacea/loads of water/tablets. May not help but at least feels like you're trying
@miss_cheriexx I also have a wierd obsession with consuming lots of smoked salmon if not feeling well!
@LauraLeslie23 fom my long/distant memory of being a student I think 5pm is when you get sociable ;-)
@Documentally the guy in question could read the time as quickly as any other watch (it seemed)
Hardly early and work car park is so so quiet. Is something up? Its only rain
@rodet @DougieLawson a bigger giveaway is the same text (or v. similar) to multiple ppl
wierd. can't get into 4sq/gowalla from a) two different devices b) two different networks ??? have they got soggy?
@icicle_halo_ its dry in the office....
does any me when a telephone company does not list numbers in an appropriate format - dashes in wrong place and mixed format itu/national
its get worse... and where the number THEY list in a welcome email isn't accepted by THEIR website due to format #telco #fail
crazy when companies make these basic usability errors. Makes them look novices/unprofessional/incompetent
I do wonder sometimes if the art of testing is lost
what a catalog of errors. so many problems from a single email/service. sheesh how do people make things this bad
@jtonline I just don't "get" some of these things. even when errors are minor/easy to ignore they just destroy any brand confidence
@jtonline maybe I'm too fussy...
my new teleconf service prompts sound like a language teacher. very clearly enounciated. Good but would prefer ability to change speaker!
This could get tiring even though I respect the improved quality. Maybe should have ricky gervais instead
@vixisabel I'm on 3. Best 3G coverage at mo could be tmob or orange due to network (3G 3/Tmob =MBNL) and company (tmob/orange) mergers
@vixisabel If you use lots of data, 3 has nice tariffs/minimal restrictions and as long as cov is ok it often is screamingly fast :-)
@honeybee85 if not used sometimes sludge etc builds up. like any pump/mechanics Always good idea to run occasionally all year
@honeybee85 same with things like aircon in cars - use regularly all year - no probs. Use in summer - leaks (seals harden etc)
One of the most annoying things -- waiting for a computer to do something (in this case an install taking an age - 20 mins+)
@jtonline of course it doesn't last forever, just in some cases a lifetime ?
@mike_griffin_f1 think all nets were poor inside. for 3G 3 tends to be fast esp with 3G network merge with tmob. tm/orange poss now evn betr
@vixisabel @mike_griffin_f1 another thing about nets -- none perfect. all vary by loc. ie for me 3 is superb. Except at home and work :-( !
im and internal collab platform now playing up too. that was after wifi & network problems earlier. Not exactly a perfect morn
@THEpastamaster 3/tmob merged their 3g networks into a joint 50/50 venture "mbnl". then orange/tmob merged, and created everthing everywhere
@THEpastamaster @mike_griffin_f1 this took over the tmob 50% in MBNL. Net result the 3G "coverage" for orange/tmob/3 will be the same. 2G
@THEpastamaster @mike_griffin_f1 will differ tho as will the backhaul network (affects whether data is slow /fast). 3 tends to be good there
something else not working now. install still running. right. good time for lunch!
something strange. now calendar playing up. the midas touch striking again
RT @karunchandhok: Watching President Obama address the Indian parliment on TV... Never seen our MP's so quiet !
@shellk1984 or emails or facebook posts! Fortunately not in real speech (yet)
that problem before lunch? it just got worse. Simple task == now extending to hours. AARRRGGHHH
"Error uninstalling". Oh great this is such a waste of my day #software #fail
more things going wrong. Should have stayed in bed. Still at least the music is still playing.
@sxa555 Well music is working fine, as is twitter, it's real work that's not going great.... what does that tell you?
Thrown in towel. Totally cleaning sw stack and reinstalling many gb worth. At least should be predictable #wastedday
And its north too...
Home. Popped some pots in dinner, lamb steaks, fresh veg for quick family roast as i was out yesterday. Yum
@vixisabel they used to use o2. No more. The expanded 3g net is generally good. Tip: get free payg sims to check coverage b4 contract or
@vixisabel number port. Always the issue though that what works where varies....
Where does time go. Home late. Really want to fit in #f1 forum and spooks tonight!
@giagia i couldnt possibly. Love the bbc too much !
getting probs with 2 twitter clients. web working. api issues?
#f1 #silverstone a maybe. Loved it last year. Should be another great season @sophiiebailey
@TommyB89 assuming i get permission (oh/kids). May have to put up with other stuff first. Or may do spooks. But forum has 2 be tonight!
@shellk1984 thanks. Guess i was working so less tweeting.
@lookingspiffy funny reading with interest after all the @f1badger attendees missed it yesterday
@VirginRacing @calmbanana for what its worth. Diff industry (my employer) http://www.ibm.com/blogs/zz/en/guidelines.html
@sophiiebailey wow. I take it you do 3 days camping. Gs or ga? Gets expensive with family.
#bbcpop sharing a bit of love for the #bbc. Great content and love the #f1 coverage (and can prob speak on behalf of many). Worlds best
@giagia have done though by now have a feeling it may not be live on big screen any more.....
@calmbanana to some extent its common sense but onh its a dynamic area and norms still bein established.. and fluid... at least a start
last night with 2 pups. 1 goes tomorrow and other we're keeping. they are still so noisy though
think will have to leave twitter until later. detecting some spooky tweets #spooks
it really is quite astounding the noise 2 pups can make. seriously
finally - #nowwatching #spooks
