Somewhere, the gods are laughing at me... I've started a twitter account.
And your twitter handle is????
Was a bit nervous about throwing it out there, but ah, what the hay. 🙂

Well, if you want people to follow you, you do need to tell us where to look. 😉

Yes, I could search for your name, way too much work. 😛

Thanks folks, nice to have someone care what I actually type... 😉 Still getting a feel for how it's currently used across the boards. Looks like a cross between professional commentary and events, a mini-LiveJournal, and a public texting conversation. Guess that's not THAT surprising.

Never stop learning, even if it hurts. Ego bruises are practically mandatory as you learn unless you've never risked enough to make a mistake.

Yup, that's about right.

Though you haven't seen one of the joke sessions going so....

Or just go to Paul's profile and see who he recently started following...:-)

My twitter handle is.... (drum roll please...) DBAWayne. I know, real original.

Ever get the feeling you're being followed?

@=)

And I took the opportunity to follow Gail and Lynn too, since I saw you were chatting with them. Whoot! Three in one blow.

If anyone is interested, this is my handle:

I'm looking for a couple (and I do mean 2) editors for a non-SSC piece on page restores. Please do not volunteer if you are not willing and able to do a tech and readability type edit in a fairly short time frame (no more than a week)

Thanks.

Try searching without the @ on his handle.

I'm sure it is not you. I've been searching people on Twitter all day, and most of the time they don't show up in the search results.

I couldn't find Craig either at first, not with his handle or with his full name, I had to resort to Google to find him.

Anyway, here is the link to my profile, that should work:

It looks like there's quite a few of us jumping into this twitter thing all at once. :w00t:
