Stargate Universe

Okay… so I watched Stargate Universe the other night. This was the premiere episode.

I felt the episode jumped back and forth through time a little too much… I would have preferred it stayed where it was at the beginning with them being on the ship, instead of bam switching to a few days ago etc. We could have gotten the information from dialogue that the characters were saying etc.

One thing that bugged me about the episode was the way they recruited the kid… I mean come on, putting a top secret code thing in a computer game, and just wait till a dude can crack it? Then when he doesn’t believe them, they beam him up to the space ship. Yeah um… what in the hell was that all about? That really didn’t go over well for me… oh well.

The acting was a little rough, I’m sure it will get better. I enjoyed how the episode left off, making you thirst for more. Of course we have to wait a week and all of that… but hey, it’s all good right? Right!

All in all, I would say it was an okay pilot. Can’t wait till the next installment of it!

And then there was Twitter

Ah Twitter, yes you know the place. Where people talk about whatever is going on in their lives. It’s a place for communication with other twits… no, wait… that’s not the correct term um… other tweeters… no… what’s the phrase I’m looking for? Oh yes, others that have been stung by the Tweeting Bird so to speak. Do birds sting? Well, if they don’t this one sure does.

It’s become one of the largest fads since Myspace, Blogging, and Geocities… (remember them? oh yeah, they’re soon to be gone, if not already gone).

Twitter has become a household name. No one else has done microblogging quite like it.

When it comes to ways to put your tweet out there, there are hundreds of applications to choose from.

You can tweet from your phone, from your computer, from your mobile device (iphone, ipod touch, blackberry etc.) you can tweet just from about anywhere.

Twitter doesn’t sleep… you tweet it displays.

You can even post links to your blog after they’ve been posted via Twitter.

Twitter has become the new RSS.

So, are you tweeting? If not, why not?

Go forth and tweet!
