The week's twitterings – 2010-12-05

  • Funniest sports story ever? http://www.rollingstone.com:80/politics/matt-taibbi/blogs/TaibbiData_May2010/238311 #
  • Visited @united site to print my itinerary to put in my luggage; saw the upgrade on the SFO-ORD leg had cleared. Nice way to start the trip! #
  • "Different cures for different diseases" seems obvious…. Memo to Republicans: it isn't always 1980. http://t.co/MmTKafY via @mattyglesias #
  • Oh joy: looks like I'm flying into a UK-sized snowstorm. Heathrow should stay open, but driving… Wait – didn't I do all this a year ago? #
  • This is a first: I've never flown facing backwards before! This is in @United's new 767 business class. #
  • Seat mate on ORD-LHR was @chip_znuff of Enuff Znuff (touring UK for a couple of weeks). Great conversation, especially state of music biz #
  • Connectivity during this trip via Vodafone SIM in my iPad. 250MB for £10 – should be enough. Must remember to reset APN when I get home. #
  • Q for UK folks: are driving conditions really bad or is "stay home" just nanny-statism? Contemplating drive to Midlands tomorrow morning… #
  • Relying on Vodafone SIM in my iPad while in UK: unimpressed. Vodafone network slow, connections dropped, mostly GPRS or EDGE rather than 3G #
  • I certainly couldn't run Skype over it #
  • And it's not like I"m out in the sticks: I can see the RAN antennas from my window! #
