The Daily Tweet with Jon Twitter

While assiduously updating my Twitter lists, as I do every day before taking lunch </sarcasm>, I discovered a huge problem: The Daily Show with Jon Stewart account that I had been following was (gasp!) a fake!

Not Feeling So Lucky

Today, I got an email encouraging me to follow Lucky on Twitter. But why would I want to? They don’t provide a very compelling reason.

Twitter Drama

We live in such a reactionary society. The fact that, in this day and age, people (Congress?!) will argue against universal healthcare in the U.S., when so many other ‘modern’ societies consider this a basic right, is just the tip in the iceburg. Everyday I get a little bit more scared that we really are [...]

Twitter vs. Buzz. What’s better? THE ANSWER TO YOUR BURNING QUESTION.

Buzz is too different from Twitter to be ‘better.’ Better depends on both the intended use and the user. Better means you can tell all your clients to use one and not the other.

Loic Le Meur and Seth Godin

Loic Le Meur is an entrepreneur who now runs Seesmic, the video-commenting-turned-social-media-interface-app. He’s just one of those guys who sometimes seems to be everywhere. I suspect he’s been cloned. Here he is interviewing Seth Godin. I thought this was a really interesting talk. Great, lively questions and animated, insightful answers. The discussion includes talk of [...]

The Twitter meta wave is cresting. Now, attention is focused on Twitter’s practical applications in the disputed Iranian election and its unique capacity to harness real-time [...]

The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien :: Twitter Tracker

Conan started a spot on his new show called Twitter Tracker. The voice over and animation really make it. It’s one of the better knocks on Twitter that I’ve seen. (WARNING: Shameless self plug approaching.) Don’t forget, if you really wanna a Twitter Tracker, check out twitterAppTracker.

Oprah and Shaq :: Twitter Talk

I thought this was pretty funny. Mostly because Shaq was Captain Capitalization when he first started tweeting. BTW, has DC Comics ever messed with Shaq over his ongoing use of the Superman logo? Just curious. (via d>fffound.)

Twitter :: Fronting and Following

Lately, there’s been too much ado about nothing directed at Twitter. Meaning, lotsa pointless conversation and criticism. Mostly from people who have no clue what they’re talking about. Don’t get me wrong. I love Twitter. But if facebook is like having a private dinner party with friends, then Twitter is like mingling at a big party [...]

Seth Godin :: Talks about social networking for small biz

Non-embeddable, sadly, but here’s the link to the TwitPwr video of Seth Godin talking about the ‘giant cocktail party’ of social networking. It succeeds in reinforcing the face that the most important thing you have in your life is relationships. Whether those relationships are with family, a lover, a client, a coworker, or someone who [...]
