from the article . . .

A mammoth project is also under way to rewrite the whole of the newspaper's archive, stretching back to 1821, in the form of tweets. Major stories already completed include "1832 Reform Act gives voting rights to one in five adult males yay!!!"; "OMG Hitler invades Poland, allies declare war see tinyurl.com/b5x6e for more"; and "JFK assassin8d @ Dallas, def. heard second gunshot from grassy knoll WTF?"

Great idea, Rich.

My first tweet (hypothetical, of course -- seeing as I'm Twitter-free, and have never been to Cypress Point):

Hi from CPC. 1st tee: WTF? 18th tee: WTF? Everything between: OMG! Luv it 4evr. Gud fud, 2. Later.

The giveaway was the absence of tyops in the historical Grauniad twitters.

I am opening a Twitter account for potential in round thoughts on the architecture as a way to keep a running diary.

I also use Google Calender to keep track of Pesticide Applications and Schedules.

perhaps

2 2 17 works better for you.
Or #2 2 #17
Or 2 to 17


It is my impression that this thread confuses testing from a mobile device with twittter from a keyboard.
Caveat. I am vaguely familiar with each and can not be counted on for expertise. Ya Ya, I know that's what you think of the rest of my posts too.

The future of gca.com is now in doubt. Time Warner is testing useage based internet plans and may start charging for going over minutes on the net, like cell phones.  It's a good thing TePaul is wealthy....but he may be the only one who can afford thousands of posts if this type pricing catches on! For most of us, this should cut down on checking in ten times  a day while waiting for documents to print, rebooting from computer crashes, etc.
