Thank you for doing this as a separate account. I’m fine if people want to use Twitter as an alternate form of RSS , but I hate when people do it mixed right in with their regular chatter. If I wanted their RSS feed, I’d look at it in Google Reader.

I don’t see the utility of this.
Why not just RSS ?

Pablo: Because lot of people who don’t use RSS (me included) would like a way to be notified of new content.

Pablo,
Many people have declared RSS feed bankruptcy and are just relying on social media for things to bubble up. I hardly open up my RSS reader anymore to check for new content.

37signals – are you seeing a difference in how people are finding your posts? Are you still seeing a bump in subscribers, or unsubs, or more referral traffic from Twitter, etc?

I for one really appreciate this. I’m a big fan of technology but I just never really got into RSS . This works much better for the way I actually use Twitter. Many thanks.

I to this very day still like RSS a lot. Good to have both options though.

I can’t see how Twitter as a replacement for RSS can be functional.
Reader is organized. Twitter is in a single stream.
Reader remembers everything. Twitter remembers the last 20 messages.
How are the two interchangeable? I feel like I don’t get it.

Good point, Phil. On the other hand, as long as the RSS feed is available, I’m happy.
Robby, I’m intrigued… why have people declared RSS bankruptcy, and how does Twitter work better for them?
