After a recent thread in the “Tweeple” discussion group on Linkedin, I am spurred to write a piece about twitterquette or perhaps one could say, about the twitter quest: what’s Twitter for and how do you get many followers? What’s Twitter for? Twitter is a space where you share — with people who follow you — “tweet” messages (up [...]

What does the future hold for Twitter? Announcing the Survey Results
Over the course of the last month, 39 people replied to this poll question (posted on the blog via polldaddy): What does the future hold for Twitter?

Year of the Comma – An Existential Comment
2,009 versus 2009 When you need to write two thousand and nine, as in “five thousand years ago, two thousand and nine people participated in the world’s first game of Twister” (they didn’t), you might also write it as “5,000 years ago, 2,009 people participated in the world’s largest game of Twitter…” (no points, just [...]

Facebook and new media communication…the deluge continues
