Twitter index: Nora Ephron mourned, Happy Hump Day

Sleepless in Seattle screenwriter Nora Ephron is being mourned by Twitter users on June 27 after she died on June 26. 

Nora Ephron was a playwright, filmmaker, director, producer, novelist and journalist and was a triple Academy Award nominee for Original Screenplay for Silkwood, When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle. She died from leukemia aged 71.

Twitter users are wishing each other a "Happy Hump Day" -- a name give to Wednesdays because they are half way through the working week, and therefore on top of the metaphorical "hump" in the road.

Microbloggers are also buzzing about the performance of British tennis player Heather Watson at Wimbledon, where she is currently competing against American Jamie Lee Hampton.
