  1. @rafiq wow, you're getting married??!! That is wonderful news - hope all goes well tomorrow. Enjoy it!
  2. @Fire_works whoops. just tested and mine works - although I have to say the phone bit has been hardest to work out.
  3. @sjl1974 I know - I have been lusting after it for ages :-)
  4. Having a lot of fun playing with my new iPhone - delighted to discover over 500k google search results for "iphone knitting app"
  5. Brilliant TED talk: "Make love, not porn" - http://bit.ly/6ktYPm - probably NSFW
  6. Fantastic, insightful piece by Stephen Grootes on Manto: http://is.gd/5qQsd (via laurenbeukes and @thealexparker)
  7. @nixgrim The Invictus story is false too.
  8. @theindigi You are spreading a false rumour. I think it would be polite to stop.
  9. @mindofchester I'm guessing you just found out the hard way that irony & black humour don't travel well online ;-)
  10. @laurenbeukes some twerp claimed NM was dead (won't boost his ego by linking), and a lot of sillies passed it on.
  11. RT @mindofchester: if ths Nelson Mandela thing gets on CNN, I was the 1 who started the rumor that it's all a PR campaign 4 #invictus ** ...
  12. @theindigi ah, but who started *that* rumour? It's also false -- check out @mindofchester
  13. Nelson Mandela rumor a good case study - it would have taken 2 secs research to confirm it's false. eg there is no "Cape Town General".
  14. @sandradeeza Happy to help you discover The Onion! Hayibo is indeed the za version - although the quality is a bit more uneven.
  15. Love today's xkcd - shades of "everything is amazing...": http://bit.ly/7ChfPB
  16. The Onion reveals all! "98 percent of children under the age of 10 are remorseless sociopaths": http://bit.ly/8aIVws
  17. Denialists, skeptics, warners & catastrophists - very useful typology of positions on climate change from NYT: http://bit.ly/5zDMmP
  18. @elanlohmann Excellent idea re. closing comments on Manto story - never fun to see ppl rejoicing over death.
  19. RT @NicDawes: if you aren't already, follow @adamwelz and the M&G's @Yolandig in Copenhagen, it is, as they say, going off. #COP15
  20. @AndrewFifeZA nice to meet you! My spouse is one of your Tuesday night Go regulars so I hear lots abt Touch of Madness :- )
