At the risk of being regarded as attempting to curry favour through unconscionable flattery, I can sympathize with the unsubscriber. I've never considered signing off though, I think of your Twitter feed as a news application in its own right.

@Roger: have no fear: since I have no favour that can be curried (or cooked in any other matter, come to that), your comment can be taken at face value. For which thanks.
Glyn can be as prolific as he wants, and what makes Glyn tick is an innate curiosity on how the world can be a better place. The only tweets I avoid is by some users who tell me about their meals and sunsets and traffic jams. That's just noise to me.
Besides, as a Nobel Prize winner, Fields Medal winner, and World Cup football champion, Glyn can tweet and blog until his fingers bleed! (Glyn's too modest to brag.)

ReplyDeleteFortunately there's RaysTechLawHash feed for those of us whose Twitter bandwidth is maxed out by his fire hydrant.
ReplyDeleteAnd Glyn don't listen to them. Your s/n ratio is just right.
@Crosbie: thanks for both of those

@zaine: I think you're confusing me with my evil twin brother...
