What about this Grundy guy?

Posted 01.03.2010 in Twitter

Here I sit in my ivory tower passing judgment on Twitterers that I deem worthy. And by ivory tower, I mean 2nd floor bedroom. Nevertheless, I want to give you the opportunity to give my tweet stream feedback. This is an open thread for just such a purpose. Am I funny? Interesting? Linkable? Lemme know [...]

Most of my favorite tweets originate from a personality trapped to the world’s web–y’know, the wide one. Not so in the case of one Jim Gaffigan. I started following him after watching his comedy opus King Baby. It was funny, so are his tweets. I feel like I’m watching an infomercial for suicide. I’ve been [...]

Do you work in a cubicle? Do you endure meetings on a daily basis? Do you take your coffee with a spoonful of scorn? Then MeetingBoy is your follow. There’s no money for raises, but let’s do the annual reviews anyway. That’ll be good for morale. People love being judged. If the film Office Space [...]

I decided to tackle this review as a twosome to show the contrast in how Twitter can be used. The two subjects are Jay & Jack of Nudia.tv, most famous for their podcast about the show LOST. Their media efforts can be followed @jayandjack, but I’m focusing on their personal accounts: Jay’s lukevenk and Jack’s [...]

I know what you’re thinking. 28PancakesLater is just the viral marketing Twitter account for the upcoming zombie flick that takes place entirely in an IHOP. Hmm? You weren’t thinking that? Wow, that was random…but not as random as 28PancakesLater. I type of the Twitter handle of one Erasmus Downey. This may be his real name, [...]

One of the early follows responsible for my continuous use of Twitter was hotdogsladies. The man behind the handle is the productivity wizard Merlin Mann, best know for his 43Folders blog which is best know for Inbox Zero which is best known for managing your email. What made me come back to Twitter in the [...]

With an economic recession, a growing pandemic and possible thermonuclear war making headlines, it’s no wonder that people turn to the Daily Show for the lighter side of the coming Apocalypse. I ask, is there a Twitter equivalent? I answer, yes. Does this toga make me look frat? Bluelanugo could very well be a Daily [...]
