Much of the time, I sat there with nothing coming in. It seemed that the whole anxious world was attached by my earphones during the seventy-two hours I crouched tensely in the station. I passed the information on to a sorrowing world, and when messages ceased to come in, fell down like a log at my place and slept the clock around.

I felt my responsibility keenly, and weary though I was, could not have slept.

It is a creative force which we must learn to utilize for the benefit of mankind. It is an art which shines like a torch of hope in the troubled world.

Facebook application - Hi Kevin - thanks for the suggestion! The two that we were thinking of were Famous Entrepreneur Quotes and Which famous entrepreneur am I most like? I like your idea as well. We've got a rollout schedule of new features for the site that we are working on first before we can get to the Facebook app. We're also not sure how hard it is to integrate into Facebook. It looks like there is a php way to do it which is great because that is our core competency.
Facebook applications - ....[quote:36s714h1]The two that we were thinking of were Famous Entrepreneur Quotes and Which famous entrepreneur am I most like?

Re: Twitter Woes.... Whats slowing you down? - Hi GT, Thanks for taking the time to get back and explain things in more detail, it is much appreciated as I have a clearer idea now of how to approach it. Thank you also David for your new take on Twitter, that certainly seems an interesting concept but I am a bit like Michelle on this in as much as I occasionally tweet but not too often. At least now I know that if I want to 'up' my workrate on this then I now have two very good strategies to use. I would be interested GT and David if you get any early signs of success or otherwise because as we all know, this business is about trial and error but also time management. best regards, Mal.
