communication

I am really good at phrases. combining brevity and poetry. Sometimes you don't need all the words to get the point across and all the extras just make it longer to read. I'm going to start publishing "shorties." They'll probably be reposted through twitter and facebook to expand distribution, at least until they get popular enough that I should stop spamming my friends with them. ;D

The other day I was searching for some advice on Ruby on Rails. I got the usual links to message forums, experts exchange, HOWTO articles, documentation and API pages. One of the search results I found was a link to a twitter account. It seemed out of place among the other resources, but I soon discovered that this user is essentially using Twitter (via hash tags) as a gigantic, distributed message forum. And he's not alone.
