So far, I'm enjoying twitter, I've started using twitbin for Firefox while I'm at the computer and think it's interesting to scan people's tweets. Twitter allowed me to meet a few people at this trade show I was attending last week in Denver and that was cool and impossible under any other platform. <br><br>I think I'd like Twitter a lot more if I had the internet connected to a phone, but I don't get into high end phones with my lifestyle. anyways, loved to hear your perspectives.

In fact, the camera I use on these videos was recommended by a fellow Twitter user a few months back when I Tweeted about needing a good HD camera. There's a certain level of trust you build in your Twitter network and it definitely pays off. <br><br>Welcome to AnywhereMan, and thanks for stopping by!

If I'm thinking about something, say a new gadget, for instance, and I'd like some quick feedback from people who've already used it... I ask my friends on Twitter, and without fail, a cluster of people have first hand feedback to share. Just make sure you're ready to share back! But I agree, Dave. Twitter really is the ultimate virtual water cooler :-)<br><br>I'm on Twitter: @telesaur Twitter is also a good tool for crowdsourcing answers to questions.

Twitter is such a great tool for "getting a foot in the door" with people you might never be able to access through other means. You don't even need to have a great opening line - just responding and engaging is all it takes. I always say that Twitter really flattens out what normally would be a very vertical hierarchy of society members based on class, visibility, career position, etc. Plus it's fun!<br><br>It's been great engaging with you on Twitter, and here on AnywhereMan!

For example, finding and connecting with others who share common interests is key. I have made more valuable connections over the past few months than any other social media platform. I twitter is all about how you want to position yourself whether business or pleasure. I think you hit on some great points here.
