A Twitter Experiment

Life is an approximation of reality. What we know and what is possible are two different things. Experiments help test and bridge the gap. With that spirit, I’m experimenting on this blog with Twitter now. You can find a link to my Twitter feed at the bottom of the right-hand column.

What finally got me to cross over was an interesting post from a corporate CEO on why he Twitters, and of course all the stories about the effects it is having on communication in general.

We’ll see how it goes. I’ll report back in a month with observations and results.

In the meantime, check out the clever Twitter aggregation at Twistori. They have aggregated all the Twitter statements starting with things like, “I love” or “I feel”.
