Just tossed out a "help" request...excited to see what may come back! Thanks for your blog...I'm excited for others to get on the band wagon...but on the other hand, I feel like it's a secret club!! :-) Loving Twitter myself these days!

I came into it not knowing what to expect but I really do enjoy reading other's updates and receiving relatively unbiased advice for some problems. Hope your conference idea goes well.

Hopefully that will work out the display will of course be more interesting than my PHP script - hopefully the images will scale up as well having the avatar of the person sending the message I think will enhance the experience.

I thought that was worthy of a little investigation and landed on your blog. (Almost all of my blog reading these days are through Twitter links.) I have randomly tossed out questions that I needed help with on Twitter and had several direct messages with possible solutions. For me Twitter is mostly about being social, but it's always great to have a list of experts just a tweet away. I came across your name on Twitter as we were both mentioned in a Tweet together.

These connections often virtual are sometimes more significant than real -world because we share common interests. There are people I have met and care never to have another conversation with them (and they work in the same industry) versus those I have "met" on Twitter who I could converse with for hours and have never met but wish to do so. How life is strange but how wonderful with tools like Twitter. Exactly, the longer I am on Twitter, the more convinced I am of the generosity of man.

It is an incredible (at times overwhelming)tool. BTW, I don't follow you, you don't follow me, but I saw a reply from Rheingold to you regarding keynote URLs. Curious, I linked to your Twitter page, linked to your blog, read your post, commented. Now I am curious...will follow...
