The UK #eurovision song sounds like its lyrics were written by someone for whom English was a second language.

I almost wish Trevor Nelson was fronting #eurovision. Almost.

Although newer links, which do show me the linked-to answer, end up with a URL of just quora.com. I just don't know any more.

Catching up on Quora digest emails. All of the links older than about a month now 404. Well done baby geniuses!

@suegyford Save yourself for Saturday. Unless you're doing something more funner.

Underwhelmed by #eurovision. Maybe I'm just not in the mood this evening. Or too sober. It almost seems as if it's just… bad music.

@chrislunch Good luck!

Fixed around 50 small errors and missing links on pepysdiary.com spotted in the past month or so alone by @BoysDad. Thanks Terry!

@danhon @tomcoates @genmon @alicebartlett It’s like I walked back in, “So, I’ve got the reports…” only to find you all covered in Jesus.

@danhon @tomcoates @genmon @alicebartlett Tweetbot didn’t show me how the conversation progressed before I stumbled in with my “facts”.

@whoisdanw “It’s easy if you just use jAccountant.”

@alicebartlett @genmon >= 90% of Halal meat is stunned before being killed theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2… No idea how that compares to non-halal.

@aanand Assuming that’s what you’re getting at?

@aanand Weird, the image was there when I read it a little while ago. It’s only an Incredible Journey if they’re shutting the service down.

@aanand Er, what, um… I don’t know!

@tomstuart You should have a comedy sketch show.

@ianbetteridge I don’t think anyone said “I’d happily pay for a thing that’s like Twitter but with almost no one I know on it.”

@jcoglan @tomstuart I think I'm saying I can see it all being justified from an "it looks nicer" point of view but not from a usability pov.

@jcoglan @tomstuart Not saying its successful :) "Make photos bigger, show them off with a black background, get rid of other ui colours."

@jcoglan @tomstuart Not sure about "disregard for actual photos". I can see how you'd get to new Flickr by wanting to make them look better.

If I was on Question Time I'd do a monologue and finish with a song. Quit while you're ahead. This lot don't know how to read a room
