If so, I really doubt anyone really cares what I'm up to. (If you do, its playing COD: World at War and looking for a job). -------------------- Thailand, Laos and Cambodia 2010

Planet Pioneer Group: Local Expert Posts: 2215 Joined: 3-May 06 From: Guildford, UK Member No.: 692	on a side note I just started thinking how good twitter could be. Any way that it could be integrated into Travelpod? I was thinking about it when I was in Sri Lanka and only used a pc twice in 2 weeks but could have easily posted a quick update to say where I was using Twitter. -------------------- My Travelogue Rich

What would you like to see? Maybe an automatic link to your blog gets posted when you update it? We don't have anything like that right now. You could always remember to paste a link to your blog in your Twitter after you're done. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara
