This week in Twitter, we spent time discussing which netbook to buy, what cereal to eat, what constitutes an ‘exclusive’ and why Gmail is suggesting burlesque poledancing lessons in Newcastle.

We also spend a little time teasing our Twitter follows about some cool stuff we have planned for the weeks ahead, and we were recommended by several members of the Twitterati (including the nice people at @SonyPlayStation).

Enjoy!

• @VenusDoom13 Thanks for the continued support! #
• [br] Nailed my netbook allegiance to the Compaq Mini mast. It’s remarkable. Anyone who liked the NC10 apart from its small keys: take note. #
• @Phil_Dawson [br] For the record: I still think the NC10 is probably better for its battery life and overall perf. I just can’t type on it. in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @NickColley [br] I’m still there. Not going anywhere in reply to NickColley #
• @Phil_Dawson [br] The Compaq keys are 97% full size compared to 91% on the NC10. I know it’s only 6% but it makes a big difference to me in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• [br] Ha! Someone is lying! Well, I got the sizes off the same site so I’m assuming they’re accurate. Check http://bit.ly/QA3GA for a peek. #
• @Phil_Dawson Yep, I watched both reviews before purchasing. I know I got the “lower reviewed” netbook but, for me, it’s all about the typing in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @Phil_Dawson [br] Yeah, torn between the Compaq and the NC10 as the latter IS a better netbook. But I didn’t like the bspace or return key. in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @Phil_Dawson [br] Some great games in HMV at knock-down prices as part of their May Day weekend sale. Mirror’s Edge €19.99. Lair €12.99! in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• Apologies this member of the PS3A team wasn’t in Helghan this weekend – needed to recharge the batteries! Normal service resumes soon… #
• @Phil_Dawson Not yet, but we will get a clan game set up during this week, so listen out for news on that soon… in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @Phil_Dawson No dates set as of yet, do don’t fret… in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @dmosbon No – but they did have an awful lot of great titles for little money – think it’s still going on – http://snipurl.com/ps3agame05 in reply to dmosbon #
• @heshster Just tested it in Chrome, IE and FF and no issues at this end. Have you tried clearing your browser cache? in reply to heshster #
• @heshster Should be OK now – can you check at your end please? in reply to heshster #
• @Phil_Dawson [br] I am roughly in Ireland. Precisely in Dublin. in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @Majiesto [br] There is a CEREAL from Reese’s based on this chocolate treat? Oh no. Good thing I’m not State-side. I’d be easily 300lbs. in reply to Majiesto #
• @leighalexander In related news, Pachter once again announces “the sky is blue” and “mountains are tall”. in reply to leighalexander #
• @xBBx You’ll love it… I’m almost done but can’t beat the last two bosses at present, so building up the army… in reply to xBBx #
• Still recruiting for PS3 Attitude; writers, podcasters/YouTubers, social networkers, event managers needed – http://snipurl.com/ps3ac4d #
• @xBBx Patapon 2 is more of the same, just with extra added awesomesauce… in reply to xBBx #
• @leighalexander Did they melt him down and re-mould him? in reply to leighalexander #
• @Phil_Dawson Quite well thanks Phil – lots of great people applying. If you don’t feel there’s a role for you, maybe you could help us… in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @Phil_Dawson …spread the word instead. Anything that anyone can do to help is appreciated – http://snipurl.com/ps3ac4d in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @RockStar_AV8R [br] Ubuntu? in reply to RockStar_AV8R #
• @Phil_Dawson By all means send in an application Phil… in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @RockStar_AV8R [br] Ah … still, anything is better than Vista. in reply to RockStar_AV8R #
• Fun fact from our recent GTA V survey – number of people who swore in the answer to the last question – 9 out of 981 – good night Twitterati #
• @LCaruana [br] RSS feed looks good from here. Though some recent rogue Javascript has caused a few hamsters to get sick. Looking into it. in reply to LCaruana #
• R @p_tom Stupid question time. How do I know if I’m in the first 487? Also, do I get bonus points for writing a haiku in Japanese? #
• R P_TOM We definitely joined before May 1st! I’ll give you the translation of my Jap haiku, just in case you thought I was making it up #
• [br] Re: Ghostbusters exclusivity. Check our article guys – 3 sources quoted. It is NOT exclusive to Sony. Only timed. http://bit.ly/J8KRQ #
• @halbpro [br] Atari are saying it will still launch on non-Sony products “in 2009″ so … 6 months, at most. in reply to halbpro #
• @Person678 [br] Yes! Because 3rd party exclusivity is inherently wrong as it excludes gamers. Timed is ok as everyone gets it in the end. in reply to Person678 #
• [br] I should note that the recent PS3 Attitude tweet about 3rd party exclusivity is BRODIESAN’S opinion and not the opinion of the site. #
• Can anyone else confirm N4G is down at present? #
• @djhsecondnature Thanks – we weren’t even seeing that… was just bombing out… in reply to djhsecondnature #
• @leighalexander Any chance you could follow us please Leigh? in reply to leighalexander #
• @Brodie_san You don’t have the ‘fro (or the leg warmers) for that particular impersonation, my man… in reply to Brodie_san #
• @Phil_Dawson Yeah – we weren’t able to accept that one, but we’ll have some new matches soon #KZ2 in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• @INFECTEDPB503 [br] Hey. It’s not actually a PS3 exclusive. Just timed. http://bit.ly/Ybxs in reply to INFECTEDPB503 #
• @technological_1 Latitude and Longitude – i.e. where they are right now #iphone in reply to technological_1 #
• Congrats to @leighalexander for being our 400th follower. Who will be our 500th? #
• Goodnight dear Twitterati – will leave you with this thought; where does your lap go when you stand up? #
• I’m actually too old to test MotorStorm Arctic Edge! Oh, cruel fate… #
• But if you’re over 16 and under 35, you can test it this weekend in London – http://tinyurl.com/djm2y6 – RT @MusterBuster #
• @ps3attitude gained 366 followers in 91 days and 8 since yesterday: http://twittercounter.com/ps3attitude #
• @Phil_Dawson @MusterBuster #greyfoxes Old gamers know their stuff, don’t you know… and with us being such big MotorStorm fans too! in reply to Phil_Dawson #
• inFamous preview code just turned up – look out for our impressions soon at PS3 Attitude… #ps3 #
• @Majiesto [br] Get off the fence and come in for the big win in reply to Majiesto #
• @Majiesto What type of fence? An electric one? #infamous in reply to Majiesto #
• @nickchester Watch out Nick – you’ll have someone’s eye out with them! in reply to nickchester #
• @geoffkeighley We love The Soup. Whether McHale can pull off a press conference though… maybe if he brings Spaghetti Cat with him… in reply to geoffkeighley #
• Gmail‘s auto-suggest feature can be funny. Looking at an email that said “I did three yesterday” and it suggested “Burlesque in Newcastle”! #
• RT @Veronica: New episode of Qore out today: Subscribers get into the Uncharted 2: Among Thieves multiplayer beta! http://bit.ly/nIMnV #
• @Majiesto [br] I read that as “filling” and was thinking: what the hell is he filling up with? I hope it’s cake … in reply to Majiesto #
• @djhsecondnature Yep… in reply to djhsecondnature #

• Can all the unfeasibly hot women, who don’t really exist and only have one tweet about ‘insurance’, please stop following us. Thanks. #
• And as an FYI, if you’re a Twitter Spammer you get instantly blocked anyway, so it’s not worth your time… #
• “What did you say?” – *Next Tuesday* – “Really, that soon. Crikey.” – *Catchy name too, I thought* – “Yeah… me too” #
• @KillzoneDotCom @VenusDoom13 @SonyPlayStation Thanks for featuring us! We love you guys… in a bromance way, of course. #followfriday in reply to KillzoneDotCom #
• Welcome to all our new followers. Your timing couldn’t have been better – http://bit.ly/11Ty4c #
• If you’re looking for a GoWII-like game on the PS3, you could do a lot worse than Wolverine… #
• @VenusDoom13 Sure. Because that sounds better than a gromance. #
• @raydawg13 We saw that survey too, but it does sound very unlikely to us if we’re honest. #gow3 #
