I do love that twittervideion. I've been admiring twitter from afar for awhile... I have an account but I'm just lurking. I do see... especially have today in fact in one instance what the brilliance is in twitter. In many ways breaking posts down into more granular bits makes it far more interesting and effective... then say... long rambling emails on mailing lists... or 4000 word essays on blog posts... those do have their points... but I've found that twitter doesn't become shallower or stupider because of the limit of 140 characters on post depth. Instead ideas my carry out over the course of many posts. Sometimes days. There's no obsessive need to capture it all in one post... so it's often times more fluid, more conversational, more enjoyable to read. Oddly I heard three podcast in a row yesterday completely at random about twitter. One was NPR, one was g'day world from Australia by the Podshow network... and I forget what the third was. The point is twitter talk is hilarious the fandom is reaching a fever pitch. I like to tell people I wasn't on twitter five minutes and steve woz was my friend... the actuall wozniak... blabbering about segway polo matches and all. It's freaking histarical... to bad it can't last. Can it? Lord knows I wish it could... but I'm afraid like any good thing it's going to loose it's brilliance after it grows to big... and stop being so fun interesting and exciting. To many people we don't know... to much noise... and above all to much of a walled garden. -Mike mefeedia.com mmeiser.com/blog > Have dreamed of a vlogmap on steroids for a while, would love to see > an animated version of that with videos embedded in the map. > > Twingly floats my boat a lot too but I do so much prefer browser based > crossplatform stuff. > > When I used silly phrases like 'seeing stuff across time and space' in > the past, these are the sort of things I meant, although possibly with > more control over time, so the first service to offer a map mashed up > with a timeline, animtaed, with embedded video, wins some sort of > 'elbows not moaning for once, but congratulating' award. > > Cheers > > Steve Elbows > > --- In [email protected], Rupert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Someone was saying yesterday that they have twittervision on all the > > time on their second screen. > > As soon as I looked at it for the first time, I saw a post by someone > > I knew from this group - marksmith - what are the odds?
