Great post. BTW, do you (or anyone here) happen to know what is the biggest photo that can be uploaded using TwitPic? I have no problems uploading photos from my Sidekick 2008 to Twitter via TwitPic but digital photos on computer hd uploaded using TwitPic from Twirl do not show on Twitter. Wondering if it is a Twirl issue or a TwitPic size image limit issue. :) Hi there! Great post.

Since the aggregated homepage already answers this question, there is no need to venture out without cause. A good way to keep a low bounce rate is to offer only a segment of the entire article with "read more" link.

Those Australians, always good for such entertaining and useful diversions. :-) Jeepers! I just had a cup of tea and realised I have not updated this since the sun was actually shining in Melbourne... You would not believe how much more of a drama I could make that. Stupid Global Warming!. I am flat out with feeding the little people, watching the grass grow, just generally being Snow White to every Lost Boy that crosses my path, my day drifts aimlessly from the first cockadoodledoo from the rooster to I feel like going to bed. I am plotting and planning. primo. I go, my lords and ladies; just to send a missive out on the wire, post-haste. Honestly! Don't hold your breath though, you're likely to turn blue..

StumbleUpon is a fantastic tool for discovering new things, but I'd like to find out how to make it work better for both web surfers and content publishers. Will post more findings in the future.
