Heartland on Twitter (split from the Von/Twitter thread)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

that's the next step :lol: ;)

however, HL's facebook presence is a goup

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=4 ... 880&ref=ts

and i cant see how to connect the posts to a group. an individual profile yes, but not a group.

and last.fm doesn't support that kind of content anyway

http://www.last.fm/group/MyHeartland

although at a push i could see if i can get the 'currrently listening to' thread to scrobble playlists ;D :lol:

or is that a bit much? :innocent:

It's a place where if you're not careful you will get sucked into a world of excruciatingly banal homilies and/or self-regarding tosh written by irredeemable nincompoops. However if you're slightly and very necessarily discerning you can keep up with stuff like Heartland other worthies without breaking a sweat. 8)

Well put. Basically you just subscribe to a bunch of people, bands, companies, whatever that you think might be interesting then further down the line prune off all the ones that annoy you or post too much. Hey presto, a fairly lean and reasonably manageable way to keep up to date and have a chuckle.

There are some very handy ones to have in terms of specialist record shops or labels where it gets you an early heads-up on limited releases, for example. I'd have missed the recent Swans one but for a tweet by YGR.
