Revisiting microblogging
Image by Moriza
Yesterday I posted my 4000th Tweet (aka microblogging entry) on Twitter.
I can’t think of too many other things that I’ve done 4000 times unless they’re biological functions, like taking a breath. How about you? Have you done anything over 4000 times?
I was going through the Broadcasting Brain archives and I found this post, almost one year old, talking about how microblogging (or microsharing, as some of us Pistachio nuts call it) was becoming a serious challenger to blogging’s turf. I think it’s still holds true today.
Blogging is dead. Long live blogging. (cue “Long Live Rock” by the Who)
UPDATE Dec. 17/08 – the people you meet on Twitter makes the experience unique and special. Check out this post on getting/losing Twitter followers for more info.

“Have you done anything over 4000 times?” If I was Gene Simmons I'd probably say…well you know full well what I as Gene Simmons would say don't you?

There's probably a few variations on that response, but, yeah.
