STILL TWITTERING . . . . It's been said that Twitter microblogs are to regular weblogs what regular weblogs once were to newspapers. But that's way too complicated. It's true, though, that Twitter moves faster than weblogs and seems a better place to post quick links.
Here's a link to my own Twitter microblog. And here's an example of the sorts of things I post and link to there--
