=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Socoder Newsletter -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "B is for Bananaphone" #048 - 26th March 2010 https://groups.google.com/group/socoder-newsletter Tell all your friends! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; Hello all Here comes April, folks, and with it comes a massive number of TV Shows. Doctor Who, Ashes to Ashes, Mythbusters, South Park, Fringe, Smallville, Stargate Universe, Flash Forward and probably even more that I've forgotten about, all inexplicably tumbling over each other, in a desperate attempt to steal viewers from each other. Here's a tip. Put your shows on when NOTHING is on, as opposed to when EVERYTHING is on, and more folk might actually watch 'em! Currently Eating... Ginger Nuts.. Mmmm... In the Workshop .. uhoh..... Did I forget the workshop again!? socoder.net/?topic=1924 In the Shoutbox.. Mario, Sushi, Chrome, Starbucks and more.. In the Mudchat The amazing adventures of a hand drawn cat as it ventures through an amazing white walled room, where it finds a strange portal which transports it into a brand new universe, where there are a multitude of crazy adventures awaiting it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c90n1q5754 Join in, it's occasionally fun! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Read Post$ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ; OK, Now What?
