An Independent Game Developer’s Diary

I recently went to go back looking for a post on my own site and realised that I’m way over-spamming the twitter messages.

Twitter messages are still appearing on the side bar but wont come out in RSS or as posts anymore.

Feel free to follow me in twitter if you want to see my twitter messages
