Who do I follow on Twitter and Why
Apr/09N/A
I only have a semi-formalized technique for doing this.
Firstly, I followed some of the big Internet marketers, because I am interested in their stuff and they happen to be on Twitter.
Next, I followed a few people who have sales and marketing related blogs. Their blogs were good, so I followed those authors who have Twitter accounts, and most of them do. I often follow Twitter accounts mentioned by these same marketers.
I also followed a range of Chinese Twitterers after going to a Twitter meetup a while back. Much less of the follow madness with this crowd.
Almost all of the deliberate follows I’ve made recently are from blogs and links to other related blogs, mostly English blogs on Taiwan.
Then, for the constant stream of followers that build up. I check out their Twitter page. No avatar, no follow. Backgrounds with big $$$, or make money scheme, no follow. Only very old tweets, older than 1 month, no follow. Otherwise I decide on if the most recent tweets are interesting.

Drinking with Goats
Apr/09N/A
Well, on Tuesday night after dinner, I went with Ron to some drinks by the “Dream Community” near my house.
Se we were sitting outside, just having a chat and there, from the middle of nowhere comes a goat.
Where did a goat come from?
Perhaps it escaped from a petting zoo in the area.
So the goat thought that it would come over and check us out, but then proceeded to start eating the chairs outside.
My first reaction was to try and stop it. But after looking at the other seven chairs around the table, it was quite clear that this was its snack.
Ron was a little unsure about this wild animal, so changed seats to get a eagle eyes view of the beast, before it could make a snack of him.
Still can’t figure out why it was there. But this is Taiwan. And that’s reason enough I guess.

Simon’s pictures from MTB World Cup in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa
My friend Simon went to see the world’s best mountain bikers last weekend. He posted his pictures of the event.
Wish I could have been there. Thanks Simon for taking all those pics.
Passed Out Again
Apr/09N/A
It was a few years ago that I passed out while having blood taken for a health check.
Well, it happened again.
I warned the nurse, she was careful to check for a good vein. Put in the needle, missed the vein, tried again, then tried again without luck. So I asked her to stop so I could take a break.
Then I got up, lent against a wall to have a breather and then had a really wonderful dream until I hit the floor.
I lay down the next time they tried to take it and they got it immediately.
Probably from not having breakfast, which makes me feel a little light headed at the best of times. The doctor says that this just happens to some people and that I shouldn’t worry.
Hmm…
Am I doomed to have this repeated every single year when I have the health check? I really hope not.
