Little known facts about me...

As some of you know I am currently on a long term contract overseas, (down South).
But I still miss England, (god save the queen, tea, football and stuff...), so every chance I get I watch my favorite programs, (no, not Eastender or Coronation street!).

But I am also a nerd, so... I watch BBC 'click', and one of the reports they had this week was about....Twitter.com. And, to quote the bbc, "...They started with nothing 18 months ago but now the founders of Twitter have made their start-up the talk of the town..."

Apparently you just type a few words and, like a text message it appears on your website. And like a SMS message it cannot be more than 140 characters.

And seen that Journalhome.com is at the cutting edge of technology, (yes, yes, it is), I added a Plugin for Twitter.
So now you can go to your plugin page and have Twitter added to your blog in less than 2 clicks.

Those of you who really care, my twitter page is  http://twitter.com/JournalHome.

Let me know how that works.

My little collection of plugins is starting to grow. Now on JournalHome you can...

• twitter.com
• Finetune.com
• Add Socialize buttons, (23 different ones so far).
• MyBlogLog
• Project Playlist
• Google Adsense
• Write on walls, (trust me, you can).
• Snap.com
• And a few others that I have probably forgotten...

As the official Guinea pig I am running out of space on my site to show them all, (and I am not a big fan of all of them). So I might have to either create a 'Demo' blog or point to various blogs that use those Plugins.
