The article David linked on founding CEOs was awesome. Keep the inspiration coming guys/girls.

It drives me crazy when people blog about their tweets.

If I wanted to follow you on Twitter, I would. So stop blogging about your tweets.

It just feels like link-bait.

Ryan, what is a “perma page”?

ML 30 Apr 10

AC: Out of hundreds of 37s tweets, this small batch has been selected. So it’s different than just following us on Twitter. A lot of this is the kind of thing we used to post here at SvN but since the convo has moved over to Twitter a bit, we think it makes sense to bring over some of the highlights.

Yeah, this is great stuff! Actually I’ve been thinking lately that this is probably best stuff in your blog.

deepeegee 01 May 10

I dunno, this sorta “gee, look what we’re tweeting” smacks of a little one-up-oneself some, you know?

What if it was called ‘small blog posts collected together’ instead of ‘twitter’? Would that make people happier? Writing is writing.

Matt’s ‘option click’ suggestion just saved me a lot of annoyance, so thanks for that.

It’s even worse when you factor in opportunity cost.

@ML:

You need to see Stranger than fiction. It’s great, really :).
