Mitch New Updates: Hello Australia :)

And as we all know, so was Queensland Tourism, making tweets the only form of direct, immediate communication available to us.

If Twitter can keep this rate of growth up, it should cross 50 million visitors by summ… Continue

Yes, it's true... for those of you that haven't heard through other channels, I've entered into another video contest. I'd love for you to help me out by watching the video. It's related to US Government bailouts of private banks and companies, but if you don't know or care about American politics it's still fun to watch. I run my brother over with a car a few times, back over him, steal his wallet, etc. It's great fun, and hopefully you'll enjoy watching! It would help me out a lot if you and y… Continue
