• Andrew Keen reckons he knows the future of Twitter – http://is.gd/o3qk – but what would it mean for the rest of us… #

• Oh, and Chelsea, why does it always have to be Chelsea! (I fancied a trip to Barcelona!) #
• @Shineanthology Hmmm. Or it marks the end of net neutrality in Twitter – privileged access for those who can buy it, the slow lane for us in reply to Shineanthology #
• @JeremiahTolbert @Shineanthology Well, yes, but more so this year? A problem for all pop awards – but BSFA can chuck a Harkaway now & then in reply to JeremiahTolbert #

• @bigdumbobject Sometimes I get rejections from F&SF which are so fast they seem to defy the laws of physics – especially since it’s by post in reply to bigdumbobject #

• Today is a high cola consumption day. Probably not helping the migraine. Plus shouldn’t have read Mark Thomas’s book – adding shame to guilt #
