Simply a flash mob of Twitterers in Birmingham City Centre. Bring along a sign with something like "I'm a twitterer", "Twitter rocks", "tweet tweet" written on it. At midday we (I guess I ought to join the humiliation; what have done to deserve this?) will stand still for two or three minutes, holding our signs up. For people to laugh at.

It’s fairly easy to gauge the impact of a blog on a discussion by the quantity and content of comments, backlinks etc. But I am a lazy blogger: I don’t write very often (it doesn’t occur to me to, I don’t have anything to add, or I don’t have confidence in my opinion). But I [...]
