Twitter? My phone’s USP was dust resistant keys!
When I’m not being all ‘media savvy’ as my country bumpkin friends like to say, I return back to Suffolk, its rather quiet, no one uses twitter, no one sends emails from their phones, no one blogs from their phones, the biggest wow at the moment is facebooking from phones, and thats only if there’s enough … Continue reading
So we tried out Twestival
On Thursday 25th March I went to my first twestival. It was an…interesting evening to say the least.

We spent 15 minutes trying to park, Kellie got dizzy, Laura … Continue reading

Online Journalism
Today as part of my Online Journalism module we were set several missions. First to be in Birmingham City Centre at 9:00 am, which meant waking up at 7:00 am, which meant a rather reluctant Sian.
