Cleaned out my room a month or so ago, and up against the window-sill I had a stack of PC User magazines (heresy, I know).

They must have been there a while, because as soon as I removed them I noticed a clear and distinct line of dust where the edge of the magazines once sat.

Scary stuff – needless to say, my room is now pretty clean. Actually, scratch that; a set of 4.1 Logitech speakers (no I didnt lose a speaker, they’re branded as 4.1), and a gigabit PCI network card that I bought of PC Case Gear because I thought the gigabit ports on my motherboard were stuffed. Turns out they weren’t – some residual power issue was running rampant, and leaving my PC unplugged for a while seems to have fixed the issue. /shrugs.

First things first – Tweetie 2 for iPhone is a Twitter client. Twitter has these things called trending topics, which can be supplemented by hashtags. Usually trending topics give a (fairly) good indication about “what’s hot” on Twitter at the moment.

I say fairly, because sometimes it’s possible to manipulate the trending topics list – and, if you’re unlucky enough, you’ll get your hashtag blocked from appearing in the trending topics list, as happened to the #hottest100 hashtag.

I don’t really care for trending topics on Twitter, mainly because they’re mostly spam-fests, and somewhat dominated by African Americans (who seem to tweet mostly crap, if I do say so myself).

Anyway, Tweetie 2 for iPhone has a feature where it will define trending topics for you. I’m not sure where it gets it’s info from, but it’s almost comparable to Brizzly’s trending topic definitions. Actually, it’s not. Brizzly’s definition service for trending topics is excellent.

The point is, somewhere along the line someone stuffed up – and, for want of a real definition, #witchaweakass doesn’t have a definition.
