Twitter has started blocking unregistered users - I noticed this earlier, didn't think much of it, I was busy doing other things, waiting for extremely slow git push/pull or branch switch. Thought to myself oh here we go again world, now you're blocking Twitter too? Anyhow, hope Elon finds a way to undo because what's the point in posting there if everything is annexed behind a login, might as well just use WhatsApp. Yuk. theverge.com #
Moving on - Doc Searls' blog is being unnexpectedly shut down. Doc was one of the first people I started reading and listening to online back in the early 2000s. He wrote much about Linux and open source, and was on quite a lot of the early tech podcasts. Looks like he'll be able to move his stuff over to his old domain. I’m glad he has some friends that can help him. It's not much fun being booted out. Best of luck with the move. [internet archive version] Update: He ended up at doc.searls.com. blogs.harvard.edu #
