My Square Card Reader arrived over the weekend. Have not had a chance to play with it yet, but looking forward to seeing how this mobile credit card payment system works.

We saw the movie “The Social Network” last night, which dramatically charts the birth and rapid growth of Facebook. The film is loosely based on the book “Accidental Billionaires” by Ben Mezrich. (Some scenes are significantly different to what is found in the book).
I enjoyed the movie. The original story may be less than interesting to those who don’t really care about Facebook, but the filmmakers managed to both craft a compelling narrative and tension. Well worth watching.
I posted a (relatively) short video on the use of Twitter. The video was created for my colleagues at work. It is not exactly my finest hour – I kicked this out as quickly as I could. I had edited the screencast two time previously, but the exported results were missing sound and audio. I would like to think the earlier efforts were works of genius that were unlucky not to see the light of day, but that would be a stretch. Anyway, I hope they are of use.
I have been inspired by the book Naked Conversations to expand my blogging. I have a rather prosaic blog at work that details various work events, I have an irregularly updated blog for a certificate program I teach and lastly an even more sporadically updated moblog for travel.
