I’ll go first and say that I’m still sitting on the fence. I know many of you have your feet firmly planted on the ground on one side of the fence or the other, but I can see both sides of the argument. I am definitely leaning more toward one side than the other, but [...]

One very good reason for having a custom Twitter background is so that you can provide more information than will fit in the short 160 character bio, and since you can only list one URL in your bio area, it’s also a good way to let people know about your other websites, as well as [...]

TweetTornado claims to be, ‘Fully automated advertising [...]

Personally I don’t get it. I see people complaining a lot about the “signal-to-noise-ratio” on Twitter and just finished reading yet another blog post explaining how to deal with it.
