Twitter

I have been warned of the impending revolution that is Twitter. My friend Jeff Holt (who has over 500 people following him on Twitter) is convinced that Twitter is going to take over the social networking frontier and be the primary tool for communicating. There are a lot of neat ideas on how to utilize Twitter, both personally and for business. Obama utilized several of them in his campaign, and we are looking at some for 24 Hours of Booty.

The trick is to keep pushing info out there, while also absorbing the flow of info coming from the people you are following. It can be quite absorbing. However, the information coming from that feed, if thought about and processed, could lead to new directions, accelerated decision making, and/or just feeling more connected to people and the community.

What is boring, or benign, or worthy of a post? Who knows. I do know that Chris Carmichael (Lance's coach) is getting better on his runs up the Incline in Colorado. And that he's sick right now. Why is that important? Not sure, but I am more informed and might even send Chris a get well note.

I'm Twittering at www.twitter.com/spencerlueders. Viva la Revolution!
