Through the Interface moving from TypePad to Twitter

As of tomorrow, I will be transitioning away from posting to this site via TypePad in favour of micro-blogging via the increasingly-popular Twitter service. If you would like to follow me on Twitter, you can do so via http://twitter.com/keanw.

Any lengthy monologues (and yes, I know I'm prone to these, from time to time ๐Ÿ™‚ will either be condensed down to 140 characters or serialized over multiple tweets. The same holds for code samples: I expect this to force me to be more disciplined about keeping my code succinct (although on the downside I plan on completely eradicating comments and error-checking from my code).

In case you're interested by the motivation behind this shift, I was inspired by this recently-announced move by The Guardian newspaper.

Happy April Fools' Day! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hey Kean,

    This is brilliant! Congratulations! You really had me going there for quite a while, looking at the guardian article and starting to scratch my head. In spite of the foolnote ... oops, I meant footnote.

    Cheers, Jeremy.

    Did you set up a counter to see how many people click the link to your new twitter blog?

  5. Nicely played sir!
    I grumbled, I chuckled, I typed.

  6. David -

    No, but I've had a lot of people start following me (I can only hope they realise it's a joke but are hoping to see me start Twittering anyway).

    I've had the account for a year or so but hadn't really got around to doing much with it... perhaps it's about time I actually started sending out a few tweets, after all. ๐Ÿ™‚

  7. Are you gone start posting code in binary too?

    010000100110100101101110011000010111001001111001001000000100001101101111011001000110010100111111?

  9. aw, I was looking forward to all those regular expressions. How else would you fit all that code into 140 characters ?

  10. Perl might do it, otherwise. For fun, check out this post.
