h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Yeah.

Good choice of smiley there, can't remember when I last saw it, let alone used it. It made me laugh, too.

Love you, too.

Wonderful to see you here, as it's still the place I spend most of my internet time, and I can hardly keep track of fb (and I usually forget about Twitter).

I guess you access the internet most of the time from a PC. That makes h2g2 easy.

I don't any more. I use apps to connect to Twitter and Facebook (and even to the Cavaliers site) so I literally press one button and I'm onsite. I check Twitter while I'm waiting for the kettle to boil, when I can't sleep, during the adverts on TV. As my 'internet time' doesn't require me to take any special tine to switch on a PC, I rarely do - so of course I spend less time on h2g2.

It's a shame, because my best friends are here.

That explains it.

I used a netbook for a couple of days over Christmas, and it drove me crazy. I wouldn't want to connect to the internet with something having an even smaller screen. It would drive me nuts.
So if I hadn't access to a pc, I'd probably give up on the internet altogether, except for emails, maybe.

An iPod is ridiculously easy for stuff like this, because apps are made specifically to link to particular sites. I can connect to Twitter or Facebook in two or three seconds, and to my blog on the Cavaliers site in about ten, whereas I need to devote an hour or two to check out h2g2 properly. So I need to make time for h2g2, but for nothing else on the web. I've always wanted to make a h2g2 app, but it wouldn't be worth the time for the number of users and time put in from me.

Yes, I understand that. So long as you check in here every now and then, it's better than not at all, though.

I'll try to check out facebook better, but I don't think I'll ever make use of Twitter. I go there once a week, for the Post tweets, and that's it, really.

Rich, I think I'd best go and try to get some sleep now. It's been great to catch up with you again. Let me know when you're around, or if there is a beer fest (I think you said you'd like one), and I'll try to be there.

Goodnight.
