Anyway, two things have happened to me this week, both as a result of a change of heart. Firstly I've decided to close my Twitter account of three years. There have been a few people that have been curious as to why this is happening. The answer is really quite simple; I've been on Twitter since I was 16 years old and used my account to share personal insights into my day, converse with friends and contribute to the social networking table. While this has been great, I know the way I use Twitter will have to change if I want to promote this blog and my work more effectively. While I won't be vanishing from Twitter permanently I am reassessing the way in which I use it and keeping the personal thoughts off there, where possible.

Secondly, I have changed my tune on digital publications and iPads. If you'd asked me a year ago if I'd considered purchasing an iPad, chances are I would've laughed and then talked about all the experiences you miss reading something on a screen. Turning a page, sneaking a book around, reading in the bath-arguably all could be done with an e-reader but they wouldn't be the same. Anyway, lately I've been realising how much of a cost cutting exercise downloading digital issues and subscriptions could be. Not to mention the shelf space saved (my shelves are bursting with books and magazines). While it is a possibility at this stage, buying one would be a long way off until my budget settles itself down.

So that's two ideas I've been pondering over this week (I don't always think about Fashion!).
