Benefits of Twitter
I have been using Twitter for about a year now and have found it invaluable for learning, keeping up with current events and connecting with like-minded people. I follow a combination of Application Developers, Technologists, Sci-Fi/Horror fans and Houston-area people. Being a programmer, it has been a great source of information for my profession. One day I posted a question asking what are some good books on WPF and received several replies from other programmers. In return, I try to post links to blogs and articles that I find interesting in the hopes that it will help or amuse someone else.
Below are some of the best articles on Twitter I have run across lately:
- Why Twitter Is More Than Just Tweeting – Jeff Blankenburg
- A Minimalist’s Guide to Using Twitter Simply, Productively, and Funly – Leo Babauta (Zen Habits)
