Continuing to Grok Twitter
Something going on here. And here. Always like to see Steve pondering things. And then the search driven queries in Matthew's post are great:
love:
working with Canadians
margaritas for lunch
when i know exactly what to do
buttered popcorn jelly beans
Trent Reznor’s lyrics
having lunch with my mom
the rain
my foster parents
Twitter
hate:
nitrogen
talking to my insurance company
airports
when i’m all itchy and stuff
those robotic voices
my work computer
deja vu
the Red Wings
Twitter
feel:
so lost
like i am cramming for a final
like i am being followed
bad but not guilty
extremely safe
old
like i’m on drugs, minus the high
a little lost
sick
exhausted
wish:
i were going to the ballpark
i was still asleep
i was outside
michigan had more job openings
i knew what bit me last night
i was never born
i could go back and punch myself
i was in nashville
people would do their jobs

i think you have to use twitter to truly grok it.
maybe you do, but if so i don't follow you
if you haven't tried it yet, just send a text message to 40404 on your phone and write
follow fredwilson
or follow techcrunch
or follow mathewi
or follow techmemefh
or if you are really daring send all four of those messages

John, I follow you on Twitter, so I saw you've been more active today, but I think you still need to get into a more regular habit of Twittering before you can truly grok what it's all about.
Anyway, I find myself explaining to people why they should care about Twitter quite often, so I just wrote up a fairly comprehensive blog post about it... If you're interested, here is the link: http://www.gee.ky/blog/2008/05/twitter-me-this.html
And I'm @girk on Twitter, if you want to follow me :)
BTW: I love the background image on Fred's twitter page -- you can clearly recognize how the financial center grew during the era when NYC was an important port -- and then you can also recognize how during railroad era midtown Manhattan grew. I wonder how the Internet era will ultimately change the landscape! ;D
Love

learning about seo
trees with new leaves
trees with old leaves
trees with no leaves
Hate
getting up
blow drying
working out
Feel
tired
outside my body
inside my head
Wish
more energy
my Grandma was here
to see Houston
