Just Set Up a Twitter Account.
OK, I'll give it a whirl. I've begun basking in the eternal sundown of the goldfish mind, the text-messaging to the masses known as Twitter. My handle is @jurassicpork59 (homepage http://twitter.com/jurassicpork59) and I'll be looking to widen my contacts.
See you there.

Love the dorky Sox hat. No, really!
It's OK if, like Newt, every thought & idea can be expressed in 140 characters or less.
I've been reading your blog for years and I love your insights. The twitter thing seems to me like a strange fad that takes people away from long and insightful commentary like yours.
That being said, I hope it works out for you.
A random thought I've had while observing this phenomenon from afar is that it seems more likely that the ubiqitous tweeters like Karl Rove and others are obviously using mutiple employees to tweet to everyone since it seems highly unlikely he has that much time on his hands.
President Obama has a Twitter account but I don't believe for a minute that he actually Tweets. Otherwise I'd follow him. But just because they're written in the first person doesn't mean they're written by the President.
Rove, OTOH, I believe writes all his own material. After all, this is a guy who wrote about a half a million emails while in the White House, even though most of them got dumped.
That's why I immediately started going after him.
I agree with ANON above me...Specifically ANON's second sentence. And, Twitter seems like a fad.....Twitter=Twits.
Oh my,it IS what I had imagined!
To paraphrase David Bowman: "It's full of twits!"
