A new feature has been added!

As we get closer and closer to the delivery date (not to mention that money is now involved with the actual due-date), more and more Readers from around the world are constantly asking if Amy is feeling any contractions... yet!?

Therefore, I thought it would be 'somewhat' useful to add a Micro-blog gadget to this blog. To the right of this page, atop the sidebar, you will see a square box titled 'Contractions Update.' Basically, this is an application widget from Twitter. For those who already use Twitter, there's no need for further explanation here. For those who have never heard of Twitter, it is really a tool for blogging, but at a minute detail level. It is designed for a quick and simple post/update with a maximum of 140 characters long. The cool thing is, I can type a short and quick update directly from my Blackberry, and the message will then appear in this window, with date and time stamped automatically.

When the 'Big Day' approaches, I will be spending most of my time taking care of Amy, with less opportunity to update this blog, in detail. Assuming that I remember to bring my Blackberry with me before heading to the hospital, I can simply type a short update via the Blackberry, and all the Readers around the world will know exactly (well, not really) what is going on... in between contractions! And if you want to see the entire timeline of events, simply click on 'follow AnthonyChan' and you can see all my previous updates. As you can tell, I don't use this Twitter tool that often.

Anyway, I want to stress that this is just an intent/attempt on my part to keep my Readers posted. I cannot guarantee that this idea will be executed as planned. There are 2 women in this world would make loose my mind when they scream and yell at me. One is my Mom, and guess who is the other one! :-)
