[A car­toon from 2007 etc.]

It’s no big deal. I liked Twit­ter. But I found it too easy.
I think my time would be bet­ter spent dra­wing car­toons and wri­ting books.
That’s just how I feel.
[UPDATE:] This story seems to have made it onto the front page of Tech­meme. Lots of peo­ple tal­king about it. Wow.
[UPDATE:] An archive of my Tweets can be found here.
[UPDATE:] A cou­ple of hun­dred e-mails later, I res­to­red the Twit­ter account. You can read again it here.

    I didn’t rea­lise you’d left twit­ter till I read about in an online subsc­rip­tion this mor­ning…
    I totally unders­tand why… its very dis­trac­ting. But at the same time I really liked get­ting to know you and enjo­yed your dis­trac­tions.
