    @hondanhon I can imagine writing these is more fun(?) than blog posts.

    I worked that out just so I could read @hondanhon’s newsletter tinyletter.com/danhon/ (because I knew I’d ignore it in an email client).

    @hondanhon Nah, very different things. Reading your newsletter in RSS feels different - special, more private - compared to blog posts.

    @mattsheret ‘The Unbelievable Truth’, ‘Trust’, ‘Simple Men’, ‘Amateur’, ‘Henry Fool’ all good… I haven’t seen the more recent ones.

    I wrote this about how to receive emails in an RSS feed using @zapier: gyford.com/phil/writing/2… Handy for email newsletters.

    @mattsheret PS, have you seen any Hal Hartley?

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @mattsheret Phew. Three more to go!

    @alicebartlett Bravo! And thanks to you and @benterrett for advance notice of the running.

    @GennHutchison Yeah, so good! It must be fascinating trying to weave the narrative together for something like that. Good work :)

    @tomstuart Have you tried delivering talks while wearing a red nose and curly wig?

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @iamdanw Brilliant! Why didn’t washing machine manufacturers think of making a different machine for every possible setting?!

    @infovore @alruii @tomtaylor Giving names to your vans is the worst kind of vanity.

    @suegyford What’s The Digger?

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @MikeForester Yeah, complimenting a large company on Twitter felt weird. Is that what weird Twitter is full of?

  • philgyford’s avatar

    @HiscoxUK I’m fine, thanks, but it was a good email, well done!

  • philgyford’s avatar

    (Because Twitter’s not just for complaining. Mostly it is, obviously, but not solely. Or am I doing this wrong? Maybe I am! OMG #FAIL!)

    This email from @HiscoxUK about flood evacuation help is really nice, clear, matter-of-fact and helpful. communications.hiscox.com/rp//539/proces…

    @mindcrash Someone’s forwarded me a Bright email which says account data will be unavailable after February 28.

    @GennHutchison We finally reached the end of Breaking Bad last night. So great, well done to you all!
