#freealncl and all that jazz!

For those of you that do not know, my Twitter account (@alncl) has been suspended.

Simon Wakeman has blogged about this and gives all the basic details so far. I'm still waiting for a response from Twitter as to why the account was suspended, but am using an alternate ID (@_guy_incognito) in the meantime. Please follow my alternate account for updates until this situation has been resolved.

You may also have noticed that I'm now on WordPress. I have been looking to develop my blog further and this is very much a work in progress - but I felt I had to update on the situation as it's showing no sign of reaching its conclusion. There will be developments with my blog and I'll keep you informed.

Twitter hashtag for the suspension is #freealncl and there is a petition and a twibbon!
