As I have mentioned here before, in addition to blogging I am also on Twitter. The stuff I often talk about on Twitter is related to the work I do but isn't necessarily worthy of a full blog post. On the other hand, I also mention my blog posts on Twitter. This got me thinking the other day that the people who follow me on Twitter are getting "more for their money" than my blog readers (many of whom are not among my Twitter followers). And so, dear readers, to keep you in the loop, I've decided to borrow a page from Dan Michaluk's All About Information Blog and create a regular column devoted to updating you on what I'm talking about on Twitter. Lacking creativity today (heavy sigh), I'm calling this column "Twitter Talk".
Here's a sampling from the past few weeks (for those of who are uninitiated to Twitter lingo, RT is short form for "retweet" meaning that I am repeating or quoting someone else's original post or tweet. Also to note, if you click on the hyperlink mentioned in the tweets, you will be taken to the original article I was referencing):
