Life in Twitter Land – a collection of random tweets
I seem to spend more and more time playing around with Twitter. Interstingly the Twitter experience keeps getting better and better as my number of followers increase. I just thought I would feature a few tweets that I either find interesting or that have made me chuckle…
I moaned about the ads on the new Facebook the other day and Iampennypops also agreed with me: they are very irritating and often badly targeted!
Google launched its own web-browser Chrome last week – despite a promising start and fairly good reviews, Chrome now seems to be going a little ‘loco’ 
Remember dial-up connections? Spending hours waiting for pages to load. Looks like bmje‘s Internet connection is not feeling too well today. That actually made me chuckle!
What are your favourite tweets?

I am a huge fan

As a consumer, I recommend and even occasionally express my discontent about brands via Twitter or my blog. As a social media pro, I spend most of my days managing online presences for other brands, engaging with both fans and detractors.
