First I’d like to state a couple “digital housekeeping” nots.
1. No, Twitter is not the new blog…HOWEVER, it may be one of the best ways to socialize your blog or personal brand.
2. No, Twitter is not the new Facebook or for that matter LinkedIn. Personally I use Twitter for for a few reasons, immediacy, brevity and peer-2-peer networking to name a few – much more work related. (Note: Seldom used for personal or photo sharing…that’s facebook.)
Here’s a short list of some of my favorite bloggers/Tweeters:
David Armano: http://darmano.typepad.com
Peter Kim: http://www.beingpeterkim.com
DrivePM: http://www.ovrdrv.com
Matt Dickman: http://technomarketer.typepad.com
Steve Rubel: http://www.micropersuasion.com
Kevin Rose: http://kevinrose.com
And lastly…you guessed it, 22squareds blog: http://blog.22squared.com/
David — I’m very honored to be in your list! Thanks for reading/following. I agree with your two points above as well. I tell people that Twitter is all about people. It’s more social, connective and real than most other mediums excluding in-person. I’ve found that some of the connections I’ve made on Twitter are among the best offline friendships I have.
Thanks Matt.
