So this morning out the blue my mum sent me this photo from her workplace, it being a rather gorgeous morning.
I thought I’d spread the cheer so I sent it off to Twitter via Pix.ie and I got some responses tagged #viewfrommyoffice…
And last by not least, my view at dusk…
I have fallen madly in love with the Playhouse project. It’s beautiful, it’s fun and now it’s interactive. Tonight, Liberty Hall in Dublin is the world’s biggest Twitter client.
How do you get your tweet up there? Simple. Just add the hashtag #playtweet to your tweets. Here’s the live video & audio stream:

Here’s a shot of one of my favourite animations so far. Hat tips to Daft.ie, the Ulster Bank Dublin Theatre Festival and SIPTU for a really awesome piece of work.
Find out more about how it’s all put together here on the Playhouse blog and vote for your favourite animation right here.

@alancostello – Atonal cellos
@Wexxie – A lone milky

The next BTW is happening on Thursday September 3rd at the Kudos Bar @ Clarion Hotel, IFSC.
If the finger food and 2 for 1 cocktails weren’t enough to get you signed up how’s about finally getting to put a face to that blog you’ve been dipping in and out of for the past while? Or that Twitterer you’ve been having a bit of banter with – drop the @ and have a drink and a laugh face to face instead!
I’ve really enjoyed the last 2 BTW events and this next one should be wicked – hoping to push the turnout to about 150 this time so spread the word, register some friends!
Sign up here and hopefully see you on Sept 3rd.
