Twitter's Intellectual Side

Everyone of my generation (and that means old), in the techy world (and that means geeks) is on Twitter. I've tried to feel apart of the community but I'm still an outsider. So today I took the leap and joined Twitter Feed to move this blog onto the yuppie social network. Yes, you folks on Twitter are suppose to be the more elite class, educated and thoughtful bunch. However, what I can't understand is why everyone simply copies other people's ideas. The retweet is more popular than the original. And most of what is tweeted is a link to someone else's web content. That is great if you want some person to aggregate content for you. However, Google feeds, customize searches and Google Alerts will do nicely without judgement or political agendas.

Therefore, I feel this will be a refreshing take on that copy other people's ideas theme. I will tweet what is written on my own blog. Of course, what is written on my blog is usually a collection of other people's ideas and content. So much for the intellectual side at 10 o'clock on a Sunday.
