I have been doing most of my “blogging” on Twitter the last year and a half. I thought I would copy my tweets from my Twitter account to the blog for posterity and searchability (accessibility).
Why Twitter? I suppose the reason I have been mostly posting on Twitter is that (a) I tell myself these thoughts are little insights that don't deserve an entire blogpost (but on further reflection I realize most people's blogs are indeed these little thoughts and so perhaps the most basic reason is that) (b) I want to share resources with folks and enjoy the connection with people who appreciate them, but I need to be focusing on my doctoral work at Duke and my family and Twitter is fast and happily limited by 140 characters.
So, here are my tweets from Nov 9, 2009 when I last pasted my tweets into my blog and today May 16, 2011.
Warm greetings to any readers.
