I hate how that link I just shared includes a tweet of mine with a typo. I was walking and tweeting at the same time - never a good combo.

"Very interesting, although I wish this piece didn't include a tweet of mine with a typo in it – I was walking as I tweeted and corrected it with another tweet but Natt replied to the first. Where's that 'edit tweet' button, Twitter? :)" - Martin Bryant

Re: that last retweet - I waited aaaaages between fav and retweet to keep @marshallk hanging.
RT @marshallk: If twitter were as quantified as sports, we'd see "time from fave to RT" -time between when people fave your content, then RT it secs later
