Oh yeah, Twitter

2/2/2010.  This is old.  My actual twitter account is @robertianbrown.  It turns out the wayt to get a decent account name is to use as much of your full name as you need to... before somebody else does.

----- 

I *finally* got onto twitter.  Yes, I'll be upgrading from my abacus and slide rule tomorrow.

I shall now beg for friends: please add @akarob.

(The hardest thing about having such a common name is getting a decent account name whenever i sign up to a new service...)

    So far, mostly spam (tips on pyramid schemes, recycled quotations from famous people, semi-witty general statements, etc).  But hey, it's a start.  I guess I'm still on training wheels.
