I have taken down the Twitter feed as I don’t up-date much and for the last few days it hasn’t worked anyway. I am still on there as ChrisGlamorgan but mainly read others peoples Tweets – I don’t even like txting so have found it quite boring. There is something compelling about officially having Downing Street ‘following’ you though.
After signing up to Twitter I am slowly becoming addicted. Not only is Stephen Fry my Twittering ‘friend’, he is also one of my followers.
I have set up an RSS feed at the top of the sidebar for this blog which means my most recent Twitter post will show up there, I doubt I will update this much – it’s fun reading other peoples Tweets but I find it tedious to Tweet myself. I think this may be a good idea for the Adamsdownhere.co.uk project though as a way of posting info directly to the site and keeping users updated as to what we are up to behind the scenes.
Should you want to, you can follow me here.
Today we were lucky enough to have local author and long time Adamsdown resident Jon Blake come into the ATRiuM to speak to us. Jon has some great local knowledge and contacts, and plenty of experience running past community projects so his help and advice will be invaluable.
You can find out more about Jon here.
On a different note I have joined the likes of Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross and signed up to Twitter to see if it could have any uses for this particular project. For those who don’t know what Twitter is, it basically lets you post text message length bits of info (Tweets) to the net which can then be followed by other Twitterers. It might sound completely pointless and probably is, although over 100,000 people logged on to follow Stephen Fry’s escapades while trapped in a lift.

Personally, I’m yet to get excited, but with big names in the world of interactive journalism such as Charlie Beckett and Jeff Jarvis Twittering away, it is something I will keep my eye on.
