To anyone reading here who might think I'm on Twitter, I am not. It looks
like the powers that be over there have brought my account back from the
dead, but its pointless as I never go there. Similar applies to Farce Book
as well as other social networks that anyone with my name appears on its
either not me or I'm doing it in another dimension. Life is too short to
mention every time I plug in a spectrum, or go to the toilet.

Ah, well, considering the light trip time fromthere to here it could be very
smelly by the time you hear about it.


Which reminds me, one of the April Fool jokes around at the time of the
Speccy was a Smellerface.
The idea was a smell interface for the spectrum. You loaded it with the
fragrance pack and it created realistic smells according to the game
content.

An add-on for the iPhone that does just that. And it integrates with
Twitter.

Integrates with twitter eh?
I imagine the only scent it's capable of producing is that of bullshit then?
