What a colossal distraction when set to update every 10 minutes. Forget continuous partial attention partial attention, I need to set it to d/l tweets ever 30 minutes.

Most annoying Twitter trend – people who insist on telling me that they are in an airport, or just landed, or just taking off, or complaining about the TSA. Come on people, you can do better than that, or you’re off my list.

I’ve been getting into yoga and meditation lately and find things like Twitter are the opposite of a centered, focused workday.

Guess following 500 people isn’t such a good idea after all. I do like what I’m seeing with the lifestream aggregators though, waiting to see which ones emerge as the most popular.
