In a lengthy guest post on mumbrella, Renai LeMay defends journalism’s honour – with twitter. Twitter is the greatest tool humanity has yet discovered for facilitating relationships between people who have never met, yet have a common interest.

My Cuppa, Ultimo
Allpress Coffee. 769 Harris St, Ultimo. I spotted an Allpress cup on a desk at UTS, and asked “Where can I find it”. The answer was “around the corner from campus”, and indeed, only a short walk from the UTS Broadway campus is this place. With a bare street presence, it’s an easy one to …

Coffee – the decaf isn’t being delivered until …
