Labour Candidate for Bristol East
Trolls have decamped to Twitter...

Labour Candidate for Bristol East
A Future Fair for All
My blog = my rules!
As Monica says in Friends, "rules are good, rules help control the fun!"
First: if you're after a detailed response, please email or write to me. If you're a constituent (or perhaps a very special case), I'll respond; if you're not, you'll have to contact your own MP. Ditto if you want to introduce a subject which bears no relevance to my original post.
Second: I don't have a problem with trenchant criticism of me or the Government, or vociferously expressed opinions, but if I regard your comments as offensive I won't allow them to appear. (I don't like having to moderate comments, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that people cannot be relied upon not to abuse my good nature!)

Thirdly: I might just randomly delete comments from certain people because I'm getting thoroughly fed up with them and want them to go away and annoy someone else for a while. You know who you are.
That's all - although I reserve the right to create new rules as and when I feel like it. My blog = my rules!From under the floorboards

You can. You can also use ping.fm to update both, and myspace.
If you are using twitter for facebbok then you'll want to turn off the @replies, assuming you're conversing with people.
What does the @replies thing do?
Thanks by the way, very helpful. And you're right about Facebook.
If you use @XYZ in your twitter message then the user "XYZ" will receive a copy of your message in their "@replies" tab.
eg
BristolUser:
@KerryMcCarthy Did you get my letter?
Then you will get a copy of Bristol User's message in your @Replies tab.
Exactly as Michael described. You can also use multiple @replies to reference different people. Like @KerryMcCarthy did you get @BristolUser's letter. That way both will see the message.
The twitter/facebook link is currently down.

The other things you will probably find adds more value to your twitter use will be a client of some kind (I've no idea about Windows clients, although I use one called Spaz that works across all platforms. Others swear by tweetdeck), and a decent URL shortening service. With 140 characters to a message you can use something like http://is.gd/ to shorten a URL, and thus save space.
