just signed up too - as might be expected, look for me @ /sweetcell
not too impressed so far. site is horribly designed - had to rely on yea olde Wiki to let me know what this site was about. essentially a blog and distribution service for short messages that you can input via the web, via SMS, and other such techs. people on your distro can chose to get your short updates via web, e-mail or SMS. i could see it being useful for, say, a couple... but otherwise, i don't want to get a text message every time someone posts what they had for dinner. i'll give it some time, tho, i feel like i haven't "gotten it" yet. also need to find a pic of myself, on an old computer at the moment whose disk i wiped a while back. too lazy to track on down online :)

Just signed up. Add me. :)

So you just post the mindless minutia of your daily life? How does this differ from this board already? :D
Anyway, I might check it out later. Meanwhile, I've been trolling MySpace for boardie profiles. Hello, sweetcell!

Yeah, that wasn't too hard :D .
Seriously though, people...what's with all the private profiles? How am I supposed to waste time on this miserable, hungover Friday if I can't cyber-stalk you all?

Because on there I can bitch about having to find a roommate on short notice, not sure if that's appropriate here.
On a similar note:
Room available in the burbs $550/month. Be far away from the 930 club, any other good bars and your friends. PM me to take a look.

I'm on twitter http://twitter.com/kosmo_wren and am only sticking with it for the time being because some of my favorite bands are twittering some fun updates
Supergrass is providing updates on their current recording sessions
http://twitter.com/MonkeyBasket
Ash is keeping me up to date on their upcoming singles project
http://twitter.com/ashofficial
Sloan is active posting SloanFacts, song and video of the day and links to "rare" tracks over at SoundCloud
http://twitter.com/Sloanmusic
also follow their guitarists Patrick Pentland feed http://twitter.com/DT666, who is rock n roller by night and dad by day.
One thing which is useful to facebook users is you can link the two and just view the updates on facebook....

No.
Smackie is so bored with Web 2.0 that he's skipping it all together and is already a weblebrity on Web 3.0...

This is why I find Twitter amusing....
ashofficial is sandwiched between Feeder and Blur in rehearsals. We can hear Country House on one side and Buck Rogers on the other. Blidley Blidley...

reason why not to twitter:
Man Suspects Burglars Were Tipped Off by Out-of-Town Tweets
If you're going out of town, you're supposed to have someone come by to take in your mail and newspapers so as not to advertise the fact that your home is empty. Therefore, it should go without saying that putting a sign on your front door that says "temporarily unoccupied" would be about as dumb as it gets. So if you're careless about what you post online, you may be doing just that.
According to a Friday report by ABC News, East Mesa, Arizona's Israel Hyman recently discovered this the hard way when his home was robbed of thousands of dollars in computer equipment while he was out of town. When his father, Gerry, stopped by to check on the house, he found the back door jimmied open and his son's Mac Pro, a pair of 23-inch LCD screens, and other equipment missing. Israel believes that the thieves might have been tipped off by his Twitter messages, which also update his Facebook status. He told ABC News that anyone reading his Twitter updates (and Facebook) would have known he was leaving town.
Israel has no intention of quitting his favorite social networking services, though he says from now on he will be more careful about what information he posts online. Clearly, a good idea. We just hope the rest of you don't learn that lesson the hard way.
