Twittering for the Paint

I do not know how it happened, but somehow, about a year or so ago, Twitter and movie making became linked to the world of Caution Wet Paint. Now, twitter will probably go the way of facebook. In fact this week I already mentioned that I was getting bored of the web application. So be it, the next 'thing' will need to be found. While I may slack on my blog or video contributions, I do enjoy doing them. However, while the initial thrill of twitter was quite fun (especially with my short attention span), it is pretty limited in what it actually does. Still, why not tell people in 140 characters of less that I am going to the toilet...


Anyway, here are my favourite 'tweets' of the last month...

1) am i bored of twitter?

2) mousetrap!

3) thank goodness for tea!

(it must be noted that many of el director's tweets involve tea...)

4) heathrow overhead meakes sound editing difficult

5) could it be...check-mate!

'Tom' took away my innocence...

Ah, it has been a long time since I have even mentioned Tom, the loveable rogue from myspace. But he thought of me today, by sending me a message telling me about the wonderful thing called the status update.



Now, let us be frank here, no one really uses myspace anymore. For me, it is just a default, a copy and paste job from blogger that keeps the account alive. Note, that myspace is all about copy and paste, not about adding new material. If I want to add a status update, I do it on twitter, like the rest of humanity. Even Gimpbook allows updates via twitter, hell, even my our own website allows us to receive updates from Twitter. Why, in this fast content, lazy user orientated net world, do I have to put in a different update just so the three people who happen to stumble upon this entry on myspace (hello guys!) do not realise that I am procrastinating on my computer.

Oh well, now I have finally updated my profile on myspace I expect to be hit by the rush of new savvy websurfers eager for the latest on CWP. And what better way to treat you all, then with a sneak peak behind the scenes...

Bye Bye Pownce

Pownce was a little bit like Twitter. But it was a little bt more advanced and a little less 'common'. Pownce was the thinking man's Twitter. And that was its problem, it was too elitist, to much like Sunny California rather than the Clapham Omnibus. And in today's, 'Buy-Buy/Sell-Sell' world, that means nothing.

Bye bye Pownce, hello Twitter.
