iVan Twitters

May 26th, 2007 by Kevin Cheng :: see related comic

iVan has started to use Twitter! Go check it out and follow his deep (or perhaps not so deep) insights into the world of user experience. If you haven’t heard of Twitter before, it’s a service you access by web, IM, SMS or any number of third party program to both publish and receive people’s updates.

Call it micro-blogging if you will. Other people explain it far better than I do.

And yes, I have my own Twitter as well.

Umm… not wanting to be prudish, but you do know what ‘twat’ means, don’t you?

My teammates may laugh, but I’ve been checking in on the iVan Twitters. Great for a bit of fun before I have to start slogging through the daily grind of delivered code not to spec.. grr

on an unrelated topic -

have you seen the u tube “code monkey by Jonathan Coulton” rendition? It’s been a big hit with our team and on QA days we’ve started calling ourselves pixel monkeys instead of pixel counters.

…maybe material for a comic strip? ;)

Thanks for listening, S.

Mike: Yes, I also know what ‘twit’ means and always felt the name, Twitter was a bit dumb. Yes, it’s deliberate. Yes, some don’t seem to understand why.

Sara: Yay! Glad somebody’s reading iVan! =) Will check out the video.

I’ve been reading through the archives. All the pictures seem to be missing. Is there some workaround?

Aha! When I reached March 2005, things seemed to start working. But still: is there some way to reach the old graphics?
