Proper, big, exciting
I was on ‘The One Show’ talking about Samuel Pepys and diaries. Being to TV is exciting.

Requiem for a Dream
Still one of my favourite websites promoting a film. Tries to convert the feeling of the film into something more about the web (of ten years ago) (in Flash). Also, it’s great to see that it’s still online.

For anyone who wanted to see it but didn't, here's me on the telly: http://bit.ly/fRb07t
@revdancatt @antimega Maybe I'll get my photo on the wall behind the counter! :)
@antimega @revdancatt I'll be there too!
@CaptainTom3 @samuelpepys' tweets are all quotes from his genuine diary, often trimmed for length.
@the_real_elaine Really? Why aren't I a good advert for keeping a diary? I'm curious :) #theoneshow
Well, that was brief. Was much fun to do though :) Amazing how much work goes into such a short bit. Telly people are good. #theoneshow
Really, I don't have "a passion for diaries". I was getting quite wet, it was raining. #theoneshow
@benterrett Yes, it was Boris, on a Goodies-style tandem with David Beckham and Lady GaGa pedalling behind him!
@benterrett You'll certainly be one person higher than whoever it was you were overtaking. Nearly there!
@dotcode Maybe the meeting's in IPSWICH? Maybe they've all gone to IPSWICH? (Am I getting the hang of this football thing?)
@morrick Only if you can access BBC1 from Spain (assuming that's where you are) somehow. Maybe my bit will *cough* find its way online…
@macintosh I have no idea what you're talking about.
I will be saying spurious things about diaries on #TheOneShow, BBC 1, tonight at 7pm. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00xlw9s
@benterrett I saw you on your bike this morning. You were overtaking someone. Well done.
2 men with ties have come into this hip coffeeshop while I've been here. Both have just wanted "a coffee". It's never so simple these days.
@dotcode Ha ha! If I supported a team it would be Ipswich. Ha ha you losers! Whoever your team is, losers! LOOOOZERRRZZZ!
@Zoonie Yay, thanks for the Daily Show tips, will give it a whirl. Don't want to spring for a VPN just for this.
