  • Mass Effect 2 is great so far, and I totally called the way they deal with your ME1 save import. "We have the technology" indeed :) #
  • Miranda in ME2 kinda reminds me of Jessica Rabbit: "I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way" :) #

  • Picked up the Collector's Edition ;) of Mass Effect 2. Looking forward to playing it tonight. The art book and comic contain spoilers though #
  • Those ME2 spoilers are minor though, and could mostly be inferred from the trailers and comments from BioWare about the game. #
  • I, virus: Why you're only half human – New Scientist: http://bit.ly/9UH739 via @addthis (I particularly like the term "virolution") #

  • The iPad looks like a nice eReader, which attracts me to it, but so far it's really just a big iPod Touch, right? #
  • Also how many real books could I buy for the price of an iPad? 40 maybe? That's probably 2 years worth of books for me :) #

  • Off to Madrid on business. Hope it's warmer than Dublin :) #
  • In Madrid, have turned on roaming data so I don't feel totally disconnected. Have turned off all the auto updates though :) #
  • Chilly here in Madrid, glad I brought the cosy scarf Rachel knitted for me. Tasty tapas y cerveza for dinner, now back in the hotel. #

  • @Stepto ask Geoff Tate when Queensryche are going to make great music again, and when they are going to come to Ireland :) #
  • @stepto or you could ask Geoff for a taste of his 'Insania' wine :) http://tr.im/Lzf2 #
  • Achievement unlocked: ran the whole way on my jogging route :) It's only 2.35km, but you have to walk before you can run… or something :) #
  • Yay #twidroid saved my draft tweet even when power ran out. Great apparently guys! #
  • The battery in my Nexus One lasted 14.75 he's today, including 1.5hrs playing audio, 1hr reading tweets/ Google Reader, and 6 short calls. #
  • That last tweet should have said "14.75 hrs". The autocorrect is usually great and lets me be quite fast on the Nexus One soft keyboard. #

  • I'm really looking forward to Mass Effect 2 next week. The trailers really make it look awesome. Odd shiny red lines on Shepard's face??? #
  • Maybe in ME2 it starts with Shepard 'dying' but getting 'rebuilt' somehow? "We have the technology, we can rebuild him" :) #
  • Or maybe they just need to rebuild his face so everyone from ME1 ends up looking like the default Shepard model? Anyway, can't wait!!! #

  • Trying to get our Sky+HD box working. None of the '+' functions like record & playback or Anytime are working right. :( defeats the purpose #
  • Sky support were helpful, now waiting for a system software update to complete. (Hold down the Back button on the top of the box & plug in. #
  • Nope, sky box is still borked. Last hope is dish alignment tweaking to improve signal strength, even though signal quality is fine. New box? #
  • @htc love the Nexus One. Sometimes the search window disappears after typing for a few seconds, and the hard keys could be more responsive. #

  • Depeche Mode's album Violator has so many good tracks. Also has the nostalgia factor, bringing me back to the summer of 1990 in Jersey :) #
  • Wonder what uses less power: driving headphones directly or just sending the data over Bluetooth to BT headphones? I feel wired should win. #
