I’ve had a Twitter account for about a year now.  Until this past week, I think I’d only posted to it about a half-dozen times.  But recently, I’ve started to see some value in Twitter.  For some of the bloggers that I follow, something that I’ve noticed on occasion is the delay inherent in RSS.  Being able to see immediately when a post is made lets me be the first commenter, or gets me some information just a bit earlier.

I was able to post something to my Twitter account this week to give me some ideas for an issue I was having in my life.  By allowing a few more people to give me some feedback, I was able to get an answer and set up a post about it.

My Twitter client of choice (at the moment) is Twhirl, which I covered for this week’s Global Geek Podcast.

So over the next while, I’ll be giving Twitter a good run and trying to see who I can follow, and what I can learn.  Nuggets.  It’s all about nuggets… er tweets.
