I have been using Twitter to write down micro-blog posts. I post about two "tweets" per day on average. I highlight articles worth reading and share quotes and ideas on my mind. I have tried to keep my tweets focused around the theme of church leadership like this blog. Each “tweet” is only 140 characters. I try to provide something of value and not just tell you what I had for breakfast. Anyway, I just thought I would post the last 62 here so you can see what has been on my mind the last month.
- You can follow me by setting up a Twitter account. You yourself need not actually post any tweets, you can just follow people.
- Or, you can subscribe to my tweets by RSS feed such as Google Reader.
- Or you can just click on my Twitter page and scroll through my posts.
- I have given you my Twitter glossary at Preaching, mission, Barth and Duke: recent Twitter micro-blog posts
- I use bit.ly to shorten my links. In other words, it is much too long to put http://www.andyrowell.net/andy_rowell/2009/11/catalyst-conference-fuqua-willimon-publishing-newbigin-and-rosetta-stone-my-60-tweets-from-the-last-.html as the link in Twitter so instead I use http://bit.ly/3ZJf3d which directs the person to the same place.
The tweets descend from most recent November 7th at the top to October 5th at the bottom.
