• A quick follow up

      Wednesday, 14 May 2008 - 10:24 GMT

      First of all, thanks for the great comments about twitter. Very clarifying.

      Now, the updates:

      1 – I’m starting to think that the most important use for twitter is not news, networking, or annoying followers with useless messages. I suspect it was created with one goal in mind: report earthquakes.

      2 – Remember when I said that my generation is getting old earlier than we should? Ditto. Yesterday I went to the doctor with a serious pain in my foot, and he suspects it might be gout.

      Gout! I’m a woman, 29 years old, I don’t eat processed foods and don’t drink too much. We still have to wait for the result of the blood test, but this is a strong possibility.

      I feel old and unhealthy now.

      PS: My MSc graduation is today, so if you see someone limping on the stage of the Albert Hall today, yes, that’s me. And my very old sick foot.

          I have two male friends in their 30s who have had gout. Apparently cherries are a good folk remedy that actually works!
