Employing @tweetbot's keyword-muting feature to hide Br*aking B*d spoilers until I can watch it this evening. A few close shaves earlier.

Started using @flintapp on iOS to access @globaldev Campfire. Smart iOS7 design and push notifications for keyword mentions. /ht @benlovell

Handy new iOS7 feature: Safari supports Bluetooth keyboard shortcuts like select all (⌘A), new tab (⌘T), close tab (⌘W) and location (⌘L).
At Weybridge Registry Office to give our notices in preparation for next year's wedding.

I'm looking for an iOS app that uploads a photos to an Amazon S3 bucket and exposes its URL for cut-and-pasting. Does such a thing exist?

Özil — never in doubt. Time for a sneaky bonus signing, Arsène?

In a florists for a wedding consultation. No idea what’s going on. I hear that peonies were late this year.

Trying and failing to choose a wedding band. Every demo is Kings of Leon or the Killers and sounds like a trying-too-hard X-Factor audition.
Mr Angry in the seat next to me is decidedly unimpressed with the referee. I think he’s missed his football over the last 3 months. 1-1 HT.
First match of the season. Looking forward to seeing all the new signings we've not made. Ah well. Come on you reds! http://4sq.com/14UQktP
GitHub Enterprise (self-hosted) looks very attractive right now. #githubisdown

Suggested name for #royalbaby: Dai… because he’ll be Prince of Wales one day and, y’know, his grandmother was Princess Di. Awesome idea.
Accidentally started reading a few football transfer stories and the subsequent rabid bile from loony extremist fans. Backing away...

Seriously addicted to Badland on iOS. Free in the App Store right now https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/badland/id535176909?mt=8
Ahead of the Google Reader #rssapocalypse I’ve paid for @FeedWrangler and ReadKit Mac and await @reederapp 3.2. Starred items are in Pocket.
Perfect ending to the film 50/50: Pearl Jam’s Yellow Ledbetter. JGL superb as always.
Also quite proud of a cracking idea I had this morning. Not sure if I’m now being controlled by Lemsip though.
I know it’s pointless to rant on social networks about hapless service providers, but BT really are staffed by witless incompetents.

Jason, if you hadn’t dithered with your logo colours we’d have had more @globalpersonals office screen time. For that reason #gpyourefired
.@globalpersonals’ @agit8or was the star of tonight’s #theapprentice. Lucy telling Luisa and Jason they only had 1.5hr was also superb.
Excited to reveal that we’re part of tonight’s The Apprentice: the teams were in our office designing online dating sites #theapprentice
It was fun for a week, but I’ve downgraded iOS 7 back to 6.1.4. ‘Classic’ apps’ UIs are just too jarring in daily use. Busy summer for devs.
@cronkshaw How’s your Pebble? What you expected when you ordered?
Spent an enjoyable afternoon hacking through ObjC and iOS examples. Lots of books out there -- any recommendations?
Upgraded to iOS7 last night: solid, no crashes so far and I quite like the new design approach. Other apps look sorely out of place though.
iOS badly needed this design fork. It’s certainly challenging but I’m sure it’ll all make sense when you actually use it.
