Something new that has probably passed its hype peak is Twitter. It's a sort of microblog that you can update particularly from a mobile phone. Luke has one on his site and is a pretty good user of the service. Quite a number of my friends on Facebook use a similar service to post updates on what they are doing/feeling/whatever.
Over the weekend I came pretty close to signing up with twitter but in the end I decided not to do it. To be honest, I have very little interest in keeping people updated on my life hour by hour or even day by day. One, I'm pretty damn boring. Two, I may have messaging bundle, but I'm not using it to post messages no one is going to read.
So I think I might as well pull up a chair with this here blog. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. ...Unless someone invents a holosuite.
Going to sleep because I have to work tomorrow.

I thought Twitter was awesome. For five minutes. Don't sign up. It's just another thing that you have to maintain. And I think it's for people who are too lazy to maintain a blog, you know - thinking of a topic, writing about it, using a few sentences...
My exciting update! Going for a cookie, decided to take two, nah make that three, then get a glass of milk with that, drink from carton a little, then use a glass, sit down, read blogs, wonder how I get so much belly button lint from a T-shirt. Don't worry, I'll let you know if I get another cookie! See how my life is full of adventure!
@Bob: Don't worry. I've resisted.
@Stevent: You gotta keep it under 140 characters. :-P
