Why do I never have a jacket?

Just got a cup of coffee the size of my face.

many people talk about everything like . what they eat , when they sleep . whatever they get by chasing the mouse in their skull will appear on their profile.

I remember some years back mobile companies in india was giving free sms service at the time when talking on cellphone wasn’t cheap and in those times sms became a part of life of so many peoples. the next thing was the gmail status messages they weren’t publicly stored and accessible in future but still they were popular.

I was never into writing diaries , because I don’t have a good writing and editing something you write is always painful when you write on a physical media. the microblogging services will be like good old diaries for few peoples. I wonder how will it feel like for people when they will read their own twits written some years back .
