Twitter - the 21st century novel?

Monday, April 16th, 2007

Twitter is the current internet buzz, but for once it is not all hype. Twitter sounds - and is - incredibly simple.  It allows people to send 140 character messages that everyone can see. This is an immediate means of disseminating information around the web.  It is in real time, it does not involve anyone visiting your site to get the information.

In the past people have read novels to help see the world from other perspectives and experience life through other people’s eyes. Twitter allows this to happen immediately, and through the eyes of hundreds of people. Using Twitter I can learn what everyday life is like for people in China, New Zealand, Poland…This is a completely new possibility and one that may become extremely important as means of instant, global person-person contact.

If you want to follow my life (a UK artist!) Sign up for Twitter and add artistx as a friend!

Second Life T shirt store is go!

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

Just before Christmas we opened our first T shirt store in Secondlife.  This is just an experiment to understand the procedures - we aim to buy some land and open an art gallery and T shirt store combined, where artists can show their work.
