Two nights ago a tech-savvy couple asked me this question. They were laughing at the fact that I do twitter suggesting that my, and all tweets go along the lines of:
- Just got up
- Getting a coffee
- Reading my tweets
- Off to the toilet now, brb
Fortunately this isn’t what my twitter stream looks like and in fact, I’ve had immense productivity gains through networking and questions/answers, (through GTD and eProductivity), via twitter. But I botched my chance at selling twitter because I struggled to put the benefits across properly. I also didn’t explain very well how to get started. I think I made things more complex than I needed to.
So, in the hope of redeeming myself a little, here are some great links.
