Tweets Of The Week

This week's collection starts with an excellent article from David Allen Green, a man whose output (both on Twitter and elsewhere) is well worth following. The letter in the Times carries somewhat less gravitas... Possibly the best thing about Twitter is the jokes. It's swimming with them. Most aren't funny, but here are a few below that are (at least in my opinion). All these contributors are regularly amusing, and well worth adding to your timeline if you are on Twitter. If you're not, then I suggest you register now, and follow them.

So again, this is the source-based @newstatesman post the operator of @wikileaks account is so desperate to discredit: bit.ly/NEf8vm

Found a secret door in the back of my washing machine. Behind it a tiny room with rows of mice fast asleep in odd sock sleeping bags.

My girlfriend just bought a ruler from Smiths. Heaven knows I'm measurable now.
