Tweet.

I remember life before twitter.  Just barely.  At first I didn't understand it.  140 characters?  To say whats you're doing?  Doesn't that sound like a silly waste of time?  Now that i've been using it for a little bit, I get it.  It's informative, and funny, and completely addicting.  So here are some good food related folks to follow on twitter.

  • @gachatz - Grant Achatz (Alinea)
  • @nappleman - Nate Appleman (A16)

Twitter is great. I follow most of my favorite bloggers (like you) and I also use it to network with my professional peers (I am a teacher an there are a LOT of teachers using Twitter to share ideas and resources). And, of course, I use it just to keep up with my friends. Its a very versatile little thing.

I use twitter to quell my narcisism and voyeristic nature, to mock my coworkers publicly, and I guess that networking thing.

i hadnt heard of twitter until i started reading this blog. i just decided to sign up and see what this e-buzz is all about. its awesome. it sort of humanizes some of these people others see as near demi-gods.

I follow achatz, cosentino, you, john mayer, coheed and cambria and i believe thats it for now

I didn't fully embrace twitter until I started following the_real_shaq...classic, especially his photos (the one of him @ dairy queen is priceless) and his kind give-aways such as free tickets...
