Louis van Proosdij, in answer to TechCrunch France’s Ouriel Ohayon offered: @OurielOhayon This is where Twitter may fail fast, and Wordpress new Prologue become THE solution with an effective distributed twitter like No-one seems to know what’s going on yet if you read DataCenter Knowledge, you’d think everything in the garden is rosy. That’s not the case. The Twitter blog told us they’d had a rough night and elicited an as expected amount of sympathy from the mostly US based commenters. All…

Hank Fox tallies the words used in Bush’s state of the union speech…which I missed. Which I won’t bother to listen to. The only word I want to hear him say is “Goodbye,” but apparently his speech was all about “Terra’.”

Tom Brady was spotted limping while wearing a walking cast in New York today.
I don’t have any doubts he’ll play in the Super Bowl, but he (and the Pats) have been tight-lipped about the injury so far.
Here’s to dreaming about emergency amputations…

I presume all the Oklahomans in my readership will now inform me that they’ve known about this forever, and it’s about time I highlighted their good work?
