ARCHIVE YOUR LIFE. Sum up your day in 280 characters.
Can't remember what you did this time last week? Free, secure, private and unsociable. Detail is optional, your memory will fill in the rest.
To include more, we'll limit each one to the Twitter capacity of 140 characters. We're looking for insights on how social media has changed business, media, technology, life, not necessarily in that order. Anyone who wants can either leave 140-character comments here, or Twitter them addressed to @stevebaker

Twitter is a lot like a dinner with a large group of friends at a big table in a busy restaurant.

Those who have panicked that their Twitter followers have dropped - don't be paranoid! The twitter spammers have again taken the axe. Twitter self corrects about every 90 days and you'll get used to it.
The fact is that Twitter is for meaningful, authentic communication - albeit short and if you do that, it can be a fun, and useful part of your personal learning network. It is unique to you and how you want to do it! Remember that it is not about the followers although you'll have people direct message you that you can somehow buy 200 or even 500 followers a day -- like that will enrich your life! Come on -- twitter is great and it is not about how many people follow YOU anyway - if you get tied up in that too much then you're probably really there for just selfish reasons anyway. Enjoy and have fun!
