Heh. I was just thinking that Twitter (and Twitpic) seemed particularly suited to Karl.

I dunno, there is sumtin to be said about the "wait".

If we have it all the time, then itll just be too much. I like the ritual of turning on the computer, checkin my email, ooo maybe ill see what Karl has for us today! ... and then thinkin what might come tomorrow. Also i think with posts like todays (19th June) you cant realy get that in 140 words or less.

Its like everything these days, just too much goin on... we need to learn how to take our time again!!!

Say no to twitter!!! haha

Karl's UWlive updates are also a way of driving more traffic to the site. Twitter would take a lot of that away. Karl already has a way of expressing what he wants on the UWlive site and I think he needs way more than 140 chars to do it! however, Twitter could be used in turn to drive more traffic to the site I suppose.

i'd still like to know if KH was on the train to Romford - at that exact time, or that KH was just about to go on stage - that's the fun of band related twits they post when they're about to do / or are doing exciting stuff

KH - just boarding a plane to tokyo

etc

Karl takes millions of pictures i'm sure he could snap and post on twitter...

he may not be wanting to do it, i just thought it's suited to Mr Hyde's communications styles

does Pricey have a twitter...?

Maybe for Twit pics, but Twitter is to limited for some of Karls entries.

It doesn't have to be just like his diary entries.

UW has been mostly echoing UWLive posts on Facebook recently.

Another vote against. I think between UWL and Facebook we're getting the perfect UW dose.

thank you UW

it makes sense :)

Re: where's the Underworld Twitter
 
Okay well there it is, another medium to use. I hope its used in a creative manner. Twitpic / videos and links to uwlive posts at least. At the moment I have to actively go to uwlive and sometimes i forget. This is a push message to my twitter account so thats gotta be a plus.

Karl: I hope you know what youre getting yourself into. If you're not careful it could reach Stephen Fry proportions...

Did you notice the Twitter background says "Essex Sky"?

At first, I thought it was a John Warwicker piece, but looking at it now I think it's by Mr. Hyde.

Couldn't you have told me before? People, I warn you, Twitter is almost as evil as the rest of the Internet (most of which I have ploughed through by now). If you have a job or anything elso to use your time on, don't start twittering; it should only be touched by the strong-willed.

Is this Rick's Twitter?

TheBang 07-06-2009 02:04 PM

Re: where's the Underworld Twitter
 
Could be, eh?

http://twitter.com/ShabbaRicky/status/2346480008

"Off to the [pig]shed meet Dave S[piers]"

References to Essex, Funktion One, Love Party, and following The Sunday Club (UW management)

If that is Rick, um, are we sure Karl writes all the lyrics?

Seriously, having Rick in your Twitter feed is like having a spam fragmentation bomb go off.

Re: where's the Underworld Twitter
 
Seems like it must be Rick's. The name ShabbaRicky has many times over the years in the chats while radio shows from Lemonworld have been broadcasting.

Twitter feed mentions of Karl[i assume] going out and busking and recording the results.

Twitter - Not necessary
 
It was to my dismay that I discovered the Twitter links on the home page.
Can't you see? Twitter is silly. No, I mean really silly - within two years it will be the object of ridicule. Come on boys! Surely you have enough creative outlets and enough need of "personal space" to prevent you from seeking forms of "expression" ( in reality boring everyone with the mundane and the trivial) favoured by little girls?
You have gone down in my estimation, which is not good, because I really really like what you do.
