Dear Twitter (I know, you are X now, but I still prefer Twitter and this is my blog so I will call you what I want) It is time. Time to say goodbye. I don’t mean a temporary break either. We have hung around with each other since the summer of 2007 when I joined […]

Elon Musk took over Twitter, recently and announced a new feature called Twitter Blue. I tried it out, so you don’t have to. I love Twitter. It’s always been one of my favourite social media sites and I’ve been using it since 2011. Twitter was recently bought by Elon Musk (and even if you aren’t […]

I have stopped being “nice” on social media. Let me rephrase that, because that sounds like I have decided to start being horrible on social media. That’s not what I mean. In fact, let me explain what I try to do and what I adhere to, and then it will all make sense. I wrote […]

Yup, it’s another person moaning about Instagram. Because we need one more voice having a whine. But it’s Friday and I haven’t done a Friday Rant for a while, so I am letting loose. We all know by now (and if you don’t you clearly live under a social media free rock, somewhere, which is […]
READ MOREThis week is brief, I know, you all sigh with relief! ? I’ve joined SnapChat. It’s another social media app, and given I don’t know what I’m doing and already have a billion social media applications I can barely manage, is seems daft to add another but I’m weak, I’m a foolish sheep and I […]
