Thinking of preordering an iPad today, any thoughts on which to get? 32Gb wifi only seems a good price point – cheaper than Europe!

Was just watching the very funny ‘Yu-gi-oh abridged’ on the bus…until I realised that passengers would think it was the regular version!

Not impressed by the operators’ iPad 3G data package offerings, so should I go with 16 or 32Gb wi-fi? Decisions decisions…

Light Night is looking pretty special for Friday. Will definitely be watching the amazing Deadbelgian at the Walker

RT @charltonbrooker: Longer, even bitchier version of the Boulton / Campbell yellfest; worth watching to the end: http://bit.ly/9m1Wqt ( …

John Reid & Diane Abbott were just on News 24 throwing a very wet blanket on Mandelson’s Lib-Lab coallition. Such high drama!

Anyone wanna hit the slopes with me this weekend @chill_factore ?

My net connection is poorly. Have set up hotspot tethering with MyWi, seems to work pretty well actually.

May be down to #lpooltwup later, got an event round the corner first

How is #livtwup going? I’ll be there fairly shortly as the ‘entertainment’ at this other event is terrible kareoke

My #lightnight itinerary: walker, liv art prize preview, bluecoat, biennial, fact, rockscape, st lukes, back to walker. shame i’ll miss leaf

#lightnight at the walker with dances with statues and deadbelgian (@ walker art gallery) http://4sq.com/9ZRDAY

RT @endofshow: FlashForward staff confirm to us show is cancelled >> 🙁

Il mattino ha l’oro in bocca is worth a look for anyone on #lightnight. Entrance via New Bird Street, not Jordan Street as publicised.

Back at the Walker for the second set by the fantastic DeadBelgian, thank god they’ve moved to somewhere more accustically resonant!

In negresco, which is….not how I remember it. Less professional calibre cocktails, more teenyboppers.

Just back from the pub and gotta say the Bollywood flick on Channel 4 is quite a trip! Nonsensical singing, false beards and love triangles!

Ok I swear they just played the Windy Miller song. And the girl keeps stroking her chin with voiceovers! It’s one psychadelic Bollywood film

Wasn’t going to tweet again about tonight’s bollywood acid trip, but it literally just went parallax on me.This is some messed up shit here

(Leader of the council) Warren Bradley leafleting as I left the house. Not sure he fully picked up on my cold gaze.

I’m at The Fat Olive (St Helens Road, Ormskirk). http://4sq.com/cfi9fF

It’s now more expensive for me to drive to work than get single bus tickets-this is good, a first step towards higher public transport usage

Experiencing a very odd Google Reader issue today – can’t get a Google Group RSS feed to display / subscribe! Sort it out Google!

Just watched Ironman 2, was pretty good, unlike the trailers for every other forthcoming film.

Depressing final YouGov poll is predicting minority conservative government http://bit.ly/cXhAbG

Have booked Friday off to watch the election coverage tomorrow. Global economics seems more exciting at this juncture though.

How can writing in your magazine advice column that someone should cut up their ex-girlfriend’s face be attributed to a production error?!?!

St Michael’s ward: don’t be mislead by the libdems pushing Sarah GREEN, nominated only when they realised the Green candidate was doing well

The blatently misleading postcard I got this morning from Sharon Green.Such a disparity between Local & National LibDem http://bit.ly/dwfHMw

My server was working flawlessly for 2 weeks, but breaks utterly the moment I go live?!?! #fail

Yahoo!’s junkmail filters are a joke.

Who are all these conservatives, and where do they come from? I don’t believe they exist, they’re like evil pixies aren’t they?

Normally the bbc helicopter would be tracking the PM driving down to Buckingham palace, today it’s clegg’s car as he drives to lib dem hq

Aww Cleggy looks well miserable today giving his speech 🙁

Boris Johnson to a ROFLing Paxman: "enough of this gastronomic metaphor, I have a city to run!"

Out to the first of two evenings in a row of comedy acts, this one’s some guy called Daniel somethingorother. Rave reviews apparently.

The Daniel Kitson show wasn’t unlike the experience of the computer game Braid. Whimsical, relatable, funny commentry about our domiciles.

The Braid references were in art style and story telling, he didn’t invent any nuclear bombs. Also, all pubs up from Renshaw are brill!

*groan* oh headache, how did you creep up on me so quickly? There should be laws against this.

Confined myself to bed for a few hours so I feel well enough to attend a comedy night with @madscouser this evening. Think it’s working.

Today’s purple LibDem demonstrators seem terribly confused. Think they might cry if they broke a nail. Emo-politics is so lame, man up!

Hahaha sky news has gone off air because the purple protesters were slagging them off during an interview http://twitpic.com/1m3pd1

Exhausted after a surreal night of stand-up at Laughterhouse with @madscouser and luddite non twitterers. CanadianGuy was offensively funny

Listening to #ratholeradio 24 by @methoddan and really enjoying Joanna Weston http://joannaweston.com around the 23 minute mark

Standing in a server room watching ‘progress’ bars for 3 days is a desperately anti-climatic way to spend your weekend.

Weekend virtualisation project a 70% success. Now to spend a week dealing with the same support query over and over again.

This interview with Ms Duffy says more about the reporters than anything else. http://bit.ly/a0J0M6 SkyGuy comes across very badly.

Watching time lapsed Cameron trying to talk about more shared ownerships. That guy hasn’t got a fucking clue. #leadersdebate

Was over at the parents writing up a design spec critique last night, got home at 2.10. Too tired for words today.

Woot, entered the Tunnel Run, must be my 5th or 6th year now!

Finally got round to joining the 52 week beer club! @mybrewerytap

Glad I stuck around for a great cover of redemption song #rrgig

RT @amcewen: Graphs mimed on stage much better than powerpoint slides 🙂 #oggcamp

#oggcamp agreed. There can be a lot of conflict in development and so-called feminine traits aren’t necessarily the ones which will win out

RT @czajkowski: According to @webmink government says yes we should use oss. Vender purchase at local level isn’t happening #oggcamp

Many thanks to everyone involved with #oggcamp & #rrgig, it has been a really fun and thought provoking few days

Revision going badly. Too many topics to remember. This will be my first #fail exam. Resit in November I guess. #ou

iPhone users – all of Lonely Planet’s city guides are free till Thursday. Now if only we could actually get to these places…

Watching the daily politics foreign affairs debate on iplayer. Poor Ed Davey is no Clegg, in fact not even Hague is particularly engaging.

Darling & Osbourne are up for a knife fight on the daily politics debate today. Winner has to eat the loser’s corpse. Yuck!

Cable’s been massively ambushed on #dailypolitics. Think he needs to tag out of the ring for a minute and comb his ear hair. Quite exciting!

Losing the will to live over the whole revision thing this week. Exam in 14 hours, need to do about 10 to cover all the work. Thanks #ou

RT @robinrhys: RT @appadvice Breaking: Android – Now On The iPhone http://bit.ly/cle06F

Exam over. Prediction: borderline pass/fail. Too old for this. Booze now.

Go #bubblino

Debateon! #leadersdebate

"Everything in my power" "I support the armed forces" "Nuke Trident is Nuke" "STFU" #sameoldsameold #leadersdebate

Stuck in work on a Friday night, another hour or two to go, then the weekend too. Soooooo huuuungry now 🙁

Broken iPhone is broken and in need of a wipe! That’s my evening decided upon then!

Desparately tired today as I drag myself up for another long session on our virtualisation project. Just want it over now.

This is becoming a regular slot on my Twitter account, yes, it’s the latest edition of Curry Life! (@ Red Fort) http://twitpic.com/1ex10t

Just watched 3:10 to Yuma. Reaffirms my belief that Westerns are the purest genre film. That doctor’s actor died in Firefly too, poor guy.

Wish there was an edited version of Eastenders with all the cringeworthy bits cut out!

Christ Dot, show a bit of tact!!! #eastenders

Yer man Clegg’s holding up pretty well against Paxman tonight #ge2010 @LibDems

The hell?!?! #thisweek intro very odd http://twitpic.com/1f6hnf

Opera Mini for iPhone’s finally out – clearer display on some sites than Safatr, but counter-intuitive for some actions (eg pinch)

RT @guardiantech: Spotify slammed by songwriters http://bit.ly/cQSPod

I confess I’ve never once seen their work, but I simply cannot tell whether @planetjedward is for real or so tongue-in-cheek it’s funny

Bluejumperguy talking a lot of sense on #newsnight. I’ll have what the Tories are smoking, maybe I’ll spot legions of charitable volunteers

On study leave this week, but have spent over 6 hours crushing the proles underfoot anyway. A necessary evil, gotta show them BB is watching

Interesting collection of bands on at Leaf after #igniteliv tomorrow night, met Ragz last year, lovely lady. http://bit.ly/9xgY0L

Sneaking out the door early to get over to #igniteliv – Human Resources are on the prowl so this requires Ninjaskillz!

I can now say with certainty of empirical evidence that Dominos Allerton are a pack of thieves! Overcharge again and I’ll call the cops!

I rarely have a bad word to say about Apple, but censorship of satire followed by a u-turn when it wins an award? http://bit.ly/bwHm0T

RT @minapop Korova is on fire… Hope Street, Liverpool http://tweetphoto.com/18769512

RT @runpaintrunrun: Fire at Korova? I blame volcanic ash!

Not impressed with this dalek episode of #doctorwho so far, very hammy!

Use the force Danny Boy! #doctorwho The TARDIS can do the Kepple run in under 9 parsecs!

That should of course been the Kessel run and 12 parsecs. Anyone get the impression they filmed this one before the rest? #doctorwho

The editors of Digital Spy have got out of bed the wrong side this morning, my Google Reader is chock full of bitchy articles!
