Me and my mobile phone

I’ve been tagged in a slightly odd meme by the irrepressible Matt Wardman:

The assignment: Your phone, exactly 139 words explaining why it is your phone, and a hero.

Here goes…

This is my phone.

I use it to wake me up, email, text, Twitter, TwitPic, surf the internet, blog, read, write and even, to make telephone calls. Apparently, it works in Afghanistan, but only occasionally in Somerset as the signal there is rubbish.

I did most of my degree on the previous version.

The revolution may not be televised, but it will be covered on a range of social media.

It is powered by lots of tiny gnomes on tiny bikes who have to pedal really quickly if I want to call long distance. The gnomes used to be bigger, but they became smaller, and that’s why Nokia had to change the size of the power cord. Hey, it makes as much sense as any other explanation.

Large and a bit geeky – it is a good representation of me.

I tag the Political Penguin, James Higham and Laurie Penny.
