Well, Twitter Me!



May Contains Geeks has joined the Twitterverse! I'll be posting mini-reviews of my daily Geek intake as well as site updates and general Tweet foolishness.

You can follow me @maycontaingeeks.

If you are new to Twitter and want some help deciding who to follow to maximise your Geek related Tweets, Geek Dad has a handy guide to 100 Geeks You Should Be Following On Twitter.

Plus, as it is #FollowFriday here a could of my suggestions that didn't make the GD list:

@noobde - Ed Boon, co-creator of Mortal Kombat.
@marcellerby - Marc Ellerby, creator and star of the Ellebrisms web comic.
@wossy - Jonathan Ross, presenter, film critic and comic book Geek.

I'll add some more suggestions next week and for those who fear the social networking side of the interweb like the Solanum virus I will also re-post the mini-reviews here on a weekly basis. Just like this:

Krod Mandoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire = 1 G for being the bastard child of Carry On and Robin Hood, and not he go episodes either.

Torchwood - Children of Earth Day 1 = 3 Gs for giving Jack & Ianto 'some' background, a double cross and killing Jack 3-times?

#Torchwood Children of Earth Day 2 = 3 Gs for the creepy Mr Dekker, decent build in tension and 'containing' Jack.

#Torchwood Children of Earth Day 3 = 3 Gs for A-Team style shopping, dirty politics and The Man.

#Chuck vs Tom Sawyer = 2 Gs for vintage arcade games, Dude Jeff but not enough Casey or Sarah.

#Chuck vs Tom Sawyer = 2 Gs for vintage arcade games, Dude Jeff but not enough Casey or Sarah.

#Torchwood Children of Earth Day 4 = 4 Gs for a chilling debate on school league tables, more deaths and the ominous 456.

1 vs 100 Live! (BETA) (Xbox 360) = 1G - I tried to play for an hour, crashed the box twice and only managed to answer 4 separate questions.

#Torchwood Children of Earth Day 5 = 5Gs for hard decisions & bloody politicians. Why couldn't all TW be have like this?
