Inspired by this, this, this, this, this and of course this, I thought it was time we had a really slow twitter. Something less rushed and immediate but still brilliantly rich and daft. So I’ve set up dawdlr.com. (I say ‘set-up’, I’ve registered a domain name, created a tumblr blog, rented a mailbox and written this post, and that’s it. But you know.)
I’ve tried to make dawdlr way slower than twitter. I reckon most people I know twitter about twice a day, so dawdlr is going to update twice a year. To try and get people to say what they’re doing, you know, more generally.
To submit a dawdl send a postcard to this address:
dawdlr
77 Beak Street
London
W1F 9DB
Any questions: dawdlr at russelldavies.com.
There are many questions for which I don’t have answers but I reckon I’ve got 6 months to work most of it out.
