So, I'm all for the social networking, so obviously I would sign straight up to twitter.com as soon as I found out what it was.
Man, I'm a geek.
Anyway, it's basically kind of like a live blog where people can post comments straight away as soon as you update.. you update with what you're doing/how you're feeling, etc... like a status update website? - yeah that's probably the best way to describe it.
I also didn't realise how popular it was, with lots of celebrities updating on their regularly, with Stephen Fry being an active member amongst many others.

The Strangers "Beautiful" Camera
A personal project I am currently working on outside of University based around the concept of freedom, points of view, and opinions.
The concept is simple - I mailed a disposable camera and covering letter out to a complete stranger, who by way of letter, was asked to take one photograph on the camera of something he/she considered beautiful.
They were then requested to send it on to someone else, who then had to do the same thing, and so on.
The person who takes the final photograph on the camera is requested in the covering letter to then return the package to the return address, where I can then get the film developed and see what gems lie on it.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what I get back, and it will be very interesting to see just what different people consider 'beautiful'.
I will keep you updated on the results as and when I get them back.
In the meantime, I have a second disposable camera which I am thinking of handing out to someone when I go to New York next week, to see if they will do the same thing. I just need a subject matter for this one. So any suggestions are welcome!

I'm hoping this will be as beneficial and as productive as I'm convincing myself it will be, but then I guess it's what you make of it.. BRING IT ON!
Checklist:

This is Me
Hardworking
Creative
And I need a job.
(Guess honesty is one of my traits too).
I also have Dyscalculia - which in a nutshell means I can't count. Google it, it's real!
But what I lack in numbers and the understanding of quantum physics, I make up for in kick ass ideas and drive, so I guess it's not all bad.
