I have PS3Attitude, but don't know of any individuals.
Most PS3 individuals all seem to be unsociable or arrogant cocks, but I'm sure there are some out there, I just don't know any.

Hmm. Not likely to use Twitter much at the moment (not really big into MSN etc.) but I always tend to default settings on such things to be less visible to the world.

I may change things later.

[Cho Zan Wan]

Wow! I'm on the list! :o

Unfortunately, I'm only the news editor, not editor-in-chief.

Can you add Britxbox's main feed too? http://twitter.com/britxbox ?

Thanks!

[NokkonWud]

Yeah. Not a problem :).
