Terrific points, Ryan. All goes to the evolution of new media, yes? Traditional media outlets ignore these expectations at their own peril. You're a model for others to follow.

Thanks for stopping by here to add your insights.

"Bright and tight." Love it! Now I can consider twittering to be "honing my copywriting skills."

Thanks, Suzanne!

I always say twitter is a heck of a barrier breaker. So exciting to be having conversations with people who traditionally would be insulated behind layers of gatekeepers. The best part: none of them would consider you "nobody." We're all learning together.

Thanks for stopping by!

Well, thanks, Darryl. I can't promise I'll be smoking cigars any time soon but I do hope to meet you in real time. Maybe we can solve a problem or two together. Thanks for stopping by, my twitter friend.

Aww, Ann...if you're shallow so am I. It is the ultimate procrastination toy. Yet powerful indeed. Thanks for stopping by to comment!

Be yourself...because who else would you be, right? Everything else seems to fall into place after that. Thanks for stopping by to comment, Damien.

Can't imagine a better way to stay on top of new developments! I'm always amazed at the amount of information I find on twitter each day.

Thanks for stopping by, John.

Love your point about reaching out to people in other locales. I'm discovering little niches that I would never have known about with online networking. Thanks for stopping by to comment, Jay!

@fuzzyredrobe I'm on twitter because I love people and I love information. It's the best of both worlds.

I twitter for my business to keep up on my industries and what's happening in CLT. To reach out to clients, customers and communicate with them.

I've twittered privately in the past, just as I blogged in the past, but now my business is pretty much my life, so I don't do that anymore.

We're on twitter to connect and genuinely engage people. We like to connect with Dog lovers, twitter doggies, Bloggers, Tech people, all people. People on twitter are some of the smartest around. Our life is better because of our friendships.
Also we are there to answer any dog questions and be there for support.

To find out what interesting people are doing on the web. I love the idea of seeing new ideas on technology, and how people are incorporating it into their lives.

@NBCSquire b/c twitter helps us reach a larger audience or people we know are information seekers, but who have begun to pass over traditional media for their information because we 1. don't provide information that is relevant to their lives, 2. don't provide information in a way that is relevant to their lifestyle, 3. don't allow them the opportunity to be part of the information gathering/disseminating process.

@suzannetobias I like Twitter for the info, the humor, the community and the daily exercise in writing bright and tight.

Also, I don't tweet about work-related things at all - haven't figured out how to balance "inside the kimono" activities with what my public should hear about.

so far, mostly on Twitter as a listener. Don't have many RL friends here, so my tweets are pretty much general interest when I do them
