What happened in Norway has nothing to do with Christian fundamentals. What happened in Norway this week was awful. It should not have happened. The suggestion that the man who commited those crimes was doing so becuase of Christian beliefs is worrysome too. Jesus is the centre of the faith, and there is nothing in the way he lived his life that could lead to the idea that bombing and shooting people was a good thing to do.

Posterous | Welcome to Blatant Follower Promotion, the @Posterous episode! It was great to have this chance to talk to @richiepear from Posterous, the blogging system I use to bring you Blatant Follower Promotion. I could have asked more questions for hours, but in this half hour interview, we discuss: What is Posterous Posting anything from anywhere Technology troubles and triumphs Posterous Mobile apps The future of Posterous and more! posterous.mp3 Listen on Posterous Posterous online Posterous More about Posterous The Posterous Blog The Posterous Technology Blog (including the Caching article) Posterous on Twitter Posterous on Facebook Posterous on identi.ca Twitter users of the week This week's user of the week is: @xboxsupport who are the Guinness World Record Holder for Most Responsive Brand on Twitter and it shows. Many times I've seen people I follow mention their Xbox situations, and @xboxsupport always replies really quickly. Well done to them for leading the way when it comes to Twitter communications from a brand. I see they use a tool called TweetRiver to coordinate their efforts, but apps such as TweetDeck with their instant updates and custom searches could also be useful if you wanted to track what people are saying about your brand. What Twitter tools do you use and what for? Please let me know in the comments. Be interviewed on the show To be interviewed on the show, please follow me on Twitter - my username is: @edaross .

March for the Alternative | Yesterday my wife and I (along with around half a million other people) attended the March for the Alternative, organised on Twitter via the @march26march account. 26march.mp3 Listen on Posterous It was a great day and we didn't see any of the violence that unfortunately broke out after the main peaceful march had concluded. As you can see from my photos, people from many different services and sections of society came together to make their voices heard. It is just a shame A) violent people turned up to spoil the party and B) the government has said it will ignore this march and what it stood for. Have you ever gone on a protest march? What for, and did it make any difference? Permalink | Leave a comment » | 27 3 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

This week Twitter announced: We don't want you making Twitter apps that just let you read and write to Twitter any more. What do you think about that? Is it fair for them to let third party developers help make Twitter the giant it is today, only to turn their back on them later down the line? Maybe Twitter is just doing what it has to in order to help the users know what Twitter is? What do you think. Please let me know in the comments section of this post.
