The Sternberg Effect: Reasons to use Twitter

The bigger question you should be asking yourself is, "Why do I care what a random blogger (and not even a good one at that) thinks about Twitter (or anything else. But that's a whole other issue)?" The answer is simplistically simple: the nature of social media is to learn from others.

Conversation Agent: You're on Twitter, Now What?

Consider this - Twitter is

* searchable content
* a series of micro impressions
* a presence tool
* a social network
* an information hub
* an idea exchange
* always "on"
* quick, short, and not always on the mark
* sound bites where you provide the context
* and more... (feel free to add)

I generally focus on what I’ve gained, but I suspect readers of my sites and articles have gained something from the experience as well. Putting ideas out for discussion contrasts with formal “reach a conclusion and publish” model."
