Twitter Lists

October 28, 2009

So I’m part of this network called Twitter, it’s a site where people “tweet” about what’s going on. You can find different things to follow, such as news, video game deals, or just friends.

Well just recently, Twitter unleashed in beta form this new feature called “Lists”, which can help categorize the tweets from different profiles. I messed around with it for a bit and just got to confused with how I would micromanage all of the people I followed. I opted not to use this option but might try again in the future.

Court Is Now In Session

October 22, 2009

Today I went to the Miami Dade Justice Center for a college assignment. I’m in a journalism class and my professor asked me to go to court and write an article on the experience and the crime case(s) I heard.

It was an interesting experience listening to how the court procedures went and listening to the traffic crime cases. In once case, a woman brought a digital camera with pictures as evidence that she was not above the speed limit (she was driving 56mph in a 35mph zone). The judge actually jumped over the balcony to view the photos..  she was found guilty in the end due to the fact she has had four speeding tickets since 2006.

Have you noticed the sidebar of the blog?

I added a vibrant image for my Wii Code, and hope to link it to TripleTags.com (it’s a website that has my Wii profile there) if it ever comes back online.

I also added “My Profile Networks” to the sidebar of my blog – if you click on each separate badge, it will take you to my:

Twitter, YouTube, 360 Voice Blog, and Delicious (where I have your blogs bookmarked on the front page!) [If you're not listed there, let me know and I'll add it provided it's something I'm interested in looking at ^_^ ]

Feel free to follow me on any of the sites!

What do you think about the remodeling?

Nanny 911 Revival

October 10, 2009

I used to watch this show (Nanny 911) on Fox a few years back. The premise of the show is there’s a family with out of control children and they call Nanny Headquarters to help them. A nanny is assigned and visits the family for about a week to help bring order into the house.

Anyways, the show disappeared for awhile, but now it’s back on a different channel called CMT. A new season premiered in April 2009 and hopefully it will be renewed again because I love this show! You can watch Nanny 911 on CMT’s website, right here.

Also, you can get the first season of the show on Amazon.com for less than $5! Check out the dvd here.

Not quite, but I was flying home on Delta, and they are offering Pink Lemonade for $2 – and all donations go to Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research and Awareness. I think I was the only person on the plane who bought one. But wow, that was some good lemonade!

If you’re on a Delta flight, why not spend $2 for a great cause?
