    I saw this bit on The Daily Show a while back and fell out of my chair laughing.

    What’s really funny is the mad rush to be relevant in Twitter without really understanding it. Too many companies think it’s about branding or marketing, but it’s about community and interaction.

    I do agree with the point that Twitter is the cool kids tool right now.

About BigBlueBall

Pardon the dust... but we are shaking things up at BigBlueBall. The site has been through a couple of evolutions, and this marks the latest and best yet!

Are you sick and tired of "Top 10" lists that don't really help you make decisions that will improve your life? That's a pet peeve of mine, too, and I'm doing something about it.

No more crap about the myriad of choices out there. Just the best choice. The right choice. The one fill-in-the-blank that rules them all. And all of them are vetted by us... through personal use and experience. These are the tools, the gadgets, the apps, the websites and the lifehacks that we use every day. No bullshit. Just good advice for better living.
