Well Amazon UK is great for stuff that has released. Utterly terrible when it comes to game launches. #
Will be needing an Android developer in the second half of June. Could be a two to three week project. Interested? #
So a feature of ResourceHelper was linked to the hotkey feature. Guess that has to go. #facepalm

Uncharted 3 is so so good. I can't believe I've not played this sooner. This game is phenominal. #
DSL has been down for almost 3 days now. Good job Diablo 3 hasn't shown up as all I'd be able to do is look at the packaging. #
If you are an iOS developer then check out ResourceHelper – http://t.co/kRHYnBN3 – it is going to make your life easier. Promise. #
For those asking, ResourceHelper will be set free on Friday morning UK time, will tweet when live /cc @neilinglis #
Given the bike shop hasn't given me a shout, it is probably fair to say my bike isn't being built today. #sadpanda #
I was all excited that I was getting my new bike today. It appears I won't be after all. Friday it is then #

That is The Spy and The Air Support cut. Now I need to sort out the Soldier, Scout, Engineer, Medic and Quartermaster. #

Playing Uncharted 3. My first dip into the Uncharted series. Blown away at how good it is. Worth playing 1 & 2? #
When running a little late, playing Huey Lewis & The News – "The Power of Love" makes it feel so much more awesome. #bttf #
Just stepped out the house to @WorthingSi cycling past. I even got a salute! #
I need to write more C++ #
Today seems to be broken record day on Twitter. #

Can anyone recommend some software that meets the following:
- Works on Windows
- Can handle UNIX text files
- Can edit said UNIX text files #
As a follow up, a completely computer illiterate user may have to use said software. #
Thank you everyone for your quick response – you may have a cookie. I've gone with the overwhelming winner of Notepad++ (for a client) #
iOS developer account expired for customer. They have re-subbed but iTunes Connect wants banking information but it is already there. Ideas? #
Ultrabooks – inspired by Intel – copied from Apple. #
Watching Tomorrow Never Dies. #buhduhduhbuhdada #
I also forgot to get expedited delivery on my Diablo 3 pre-order. No D3 until Friday. #facepalm #schoolboy #

My 2yr old niece is an aspiring tattoo artist who uses a PS3 remote as a phone. http://t.co/7TvIXxRG #
I've got a 3 SIM for my iPad 3. It does personal hotspot. /cc @plo #

I feel a little pang of sorrow each time I get a Google Plus invite from a friend. Mostly because I've no interest in the service. #
IT MUST BE THE WEEKEND IF @daveverwer HAS SENT OUT IOSDEVWEEKLY – http://t.co/9ApEp7mc #hurrah #thanksdave #
Hope you had a good week. Here is a nice sunset. @ King Alfred Beach http://t.co/v8c0i1HR #

Today I have a @brewdog shipment arriving. It could be 'Dog A x 3', 'Punk IPA x 12', or '5am Saint x 12'. Going to be great. #beerroulette #
Well, April was expensive phone bill wise: £93.75. #ouch #
Punk IPA and Dog A has arrived from the mighty @brewdog. Punk IPA is in the fridge. Dog A is in the beer rack. #woo #

Must admit, I'm impressed with the Mac AppStore review process. There have been a couple of issues, they've been resolved and it's back in. #
Drinking @brewdog Punk IPA, eating some chips, watching Studio 60 and about to play a couple of new iPad games. I like this evening so far. #
Punking celebration! http://t.co/A74cxiiK #
Really like Russell Howard's Good News. #

AppStore rejections that drive me crazy: ones which could have been automated and highlighted upon app submission, rather than after 9 days. #
Looking forward to seeing my niece this weekend. Need to locate some awesome fun for us to partake in! #
There needs to be some sort of Godwin law for referencing the Daily Mail. #
Right ESTA done. Went through right away. No need to come back and check status. #winning #
Apart from the MacAppStore, what are other methods for distribution of software on OS X? #

New #mtb due about this time next week. I'm not sure I will survive the excitement. #fb #

That is Portal 2 finished. Again. Such a good game. Love it a lot. #
If I can just get this shader code done, I might go play some Tribes Ascend. If only because @scottjohnson doesn't stop talking about it. #
iOS 5.1.1 fix I've been waiting for:
"Addresses bugs that could prevent the new iPad from switching between 2G and 3G networks" #
