I’m now a 3-week-old Tweeter, and new enough to be having daily ah-ha’s (and woopses). I’ve followed, then un-followed some good folks whose messages were more than I could process. I’ve obsessed over replies and RTs, downloaded TweetDeck, and installed, uninstalled, and […]

I’m perusing the Forrester Research website, taking in Provocative Predictions based on Rigorous Research. As usual, it’s exciting, but I’ve always been an annoying student. The more I read, the more there is to question, and sometimes it’s only a matter of minutes (this time I made it past 20) before I hit […]
