My little sister is four and a half. She sends me things in the post and I often get a call from her asking when I’m next going to visit. But, a few days ago I received a text from her. Considering she can’t spell her own name yet, you’d think this is a little young to be owning and using a mobile phone and when I asked the world of Twitter, many seemed to agree.

("We didn't have those in our day did we, we only had mud to play with in the ‘70s".)

I tend to be a bit late when it comes to watching movie trailers and online videos that everyone on Twitter is currently RTing themselves silly over. (For example, I just now watched Double Rainbow Guy.
