I enjoy reading what friends I have met around the world are doing. I don’t really care what they had for breakfast that morning, but I like reading about accomplishments they have made, quotes they have run across, great sites they have found, excellent articles they have read, etc.

An interesting thing that Twitter has taught me is the power of BREVITY. You see, on Twitter you can only write 140 characters (letters, spaces,etc) before your message gets cut off. I have been amazed however at the power of how ‘Less can be more.”

I have purchased products linked to in Twitter. Not because of the 7 page sales letter but because of a 140 character recommendation from someone I was following. I have learned some amazing SEO tips, a great backup strategy, how to add backlinks overnight, and discovered incredible software I have never heard of or seen  before all from Twitter.

I also learned that Kevin Riley has something for rodents.

Like I said, I’m a fan. Not a fanatic.

A lot can be done in 140 characters.

It used to be that I wouldn’t post a blog message here unless unless I had a thousand word essay to share. Unless it had to be printed out, I didn’t think it was worth putting out.

I was wrong. So except to see a lot more short and informative posts here in the future.

Yet somehow this post wound up being much longer than I anticipated.
