Twitter updates from Karen for the week preceeding Mon Feb 1, 2010

• When I see new followers, I look at their tweets. If all tweets came from API, it looks like a spambot to me, so I block that "person".
• 2nd Grammy award honoring #voiceover: 2) Buck Howdy won in Best Spoken Word Album For Children for "Aaaaah! Spooky, Scary Stories & Songs"
• 2 Grammy awards honoring #voiceover work/spoken word are already over: 1) Michael J. Fox won in Best Spoken Word for "Always Looking Up"
• Nice story about Worcester, MA #voiceover talent Mandy Nelson, voice of @Travelocity's phone system: http://www.wbjournal.com/news45560.html
• @mikeschubert My sure cure for hiccups is to hold your breath and swallow 15 times. It's easiest if you drink something to make you swallow.
• .@Mikedriehorst & @EdHunter Thx for RTs on the job hunter story. I pitched a podcast idea to 2 people at the same org. A reply would be nice
• 7am on a Sunday and already have done a #voiceover audition that included a creative sound effect. I can't say no when the muse speaks! #fb
• Wish I could use it after pitches to clients! RT @wheresspot When they don't email you back, pretend they did! Genius http://j.mp/8S2wgh NYT
• You GO girl! Many listen 2 you RT @taviagilbert got news the Phoenix is listing me in 2/10 issue as 1 of Portland's Most Influential People
• Do you know of any low-cost/free software that creates closed captioning? Mac video created in iMovie, exported to iTunes, converted to WMV
• Answered a LinkedIn ? with details about my idea to use the iPad when recording scripts in my #voiceover studio : http://tinyurl.com/yc4pdrf
• It's true! I thought the same thing but still am going to get one RT @kelseyads Women mostly not impressed by iPad name http://bit.ly/ajQ3gZ
• Best description I've seen! RT @margheritakrug Fabulous! RT @ChrisRooney: So the #iPad is basically Hagrid's iPhone
• @JeffBriggsVoice I've never been one to get too excited about OS upgrades; they often break something else. If it's working, don't fix it!
• @mitzpa Going paperless in my studio with an iPad is a green-earth thing, right? :) Only green part of this idea is my $$$ going to Apple!
• Of course, @DrewCommins & I already have 2 of almost every Apple product +2 Kindles. I really don't want to want another gadget! (but I do)
• iPad may be ideal addition to my #voiceover studio. I finally could go paperless on scripts & not need 2nd monitor. Rationalization to buy?
