I find that there are two different matters completely, twitter or microbloging are rather similar for short messages such as sms, mega blogging is meant for great things, however, articles, explanations, etc., in comparison to sms those are the emails that I personally use both, which also most do in the 21st century. as they say it: for every closed, there is also a key.

Micro-blogging kinda is annoying sometimes… I have a friend who has a microblog with a hugely complicated theme… I mean, his posts are one sentence long… That’s what Twitter is for… Your blog is great. (:

Twitter (especially with Lists) has helped me to deal with determining WHO to give my attention as I battle information overload.

Therefore, I wouldN’T want to contribute to that information overload myself so I try to keep my blog posts relevant and I use Twitter to interact with a select group of people who I am trying to engage. Micro-blogging seems to facilitate one-to-one engagement in ways that mega-blogging really can’t.

We could use the following analogy to understand blog and Twitter:

Private vs. Public

Traditional diaries –> Blogs
Instant Message –> Twitter

I think that both are an extension of the self… Mega-blogs are good for long thoughts and reflection.. whereas twitter is good for “Today I ate my Doritos with a fork” – the short fun stuff to keep people interested in visiting your blog. That’s my $.02

This post supported a presentation I recently gave to a number of marine industry professionals on Leveraging Social Media and Blogging. We use WordPress for all of our sites and Twitter to make announcements about blog posts, events, thoughts, etc. I liked it so much that I re-posted some of the ideas on my blog with a link to ma.tt. Thanks for the inspiration!

Hey Matt,

Just found you today from looking through WP goodies, particularly the new P2 theme that’s being tested on WP 2.9 beta and wanted to say you’re real cool with how you o about your thing.

I’ve just come back to innovative IT from a stint of lecturing and it seems there’s been more going on at grassroots level than I was aware of (shame on me!).

I’ll be keeping myself up to date with your thoughts and hopefully using them to better the project that I’m working with now – In short “Thanks!”

The reason most bloggers don’t update is not because of running out of inspiration but I think it’s because they don’t want to fill their blog with “worthless” contents. And I’m beginning to think that most people “switch” just because they have little to say. Tweeting and blogging should be a “and” thing and not “versus” as they compliment

I definitely think we are going to see some clever innovation as we mash these concepts together. Dave Winer is doing some of the most interesting stuff–gaining some control and thought over the publishing and syndication process is key. Right now the shotgun technique is creating a messy ecosystem.

it’s all a matter of what the platform does best. my biggest early critique of twitter was that if you had a thought that wasn’t worth blogging but was worth tweeting instead, it probably wasn’t worth sharing at all (i.e. the “i’m eating a sammich” tweets). but i think that twitter has evolved and i think that my early assumptions about twitter were misguided. certain things lend themselves naturally better to some platforms and not to others. is twitter going to kill rss? no, because people (myself included) still use rss to follow the blogs they care about — twitter adds to that by offering links (among other things) from people we care about that they thought was interesting. twitter vs. wordpress/blogging is not the same as amazon’s kindle vs. barnes & noble’s nook, or del.icio.us vs. digg where you’re comparing relative features. the thing that makes twitter brilliant is that it was built with a simple pretext as an open-ended platform, and how it’s evolved has been entirely based on where the users took it, which i think is fascinating and awesome.

wp-o-matic works great for that. one of the least-spammy uses for wp-o-matic that i've found is to use it as an aggregator for your social streams from other networks. much better than using it in conjunction with google alerts to generate auto-content like all those fake blogs do.

[...] i’ve been thinking about hacking the site design again. now that i’ve got the lifestream set up and i’ve seen how it looks in use, i’m thinking of moving things around to make things feel a bit more cohesive and less random. maybe emphasize the “this is what i’m doing right this second” aspect of the lifestream. my main goal is to split off the posts from the stream so they appear on their own and don’t get automatically buried by tweets or tracks played on last.fm. it was sort of my original intent, it was just executed badly (read: not really at all and then forgotten), and i can’t really expect everyone to click over to the blog tab, as much as i’d like them to. i’ve also been thinking about changing the formatting of the lifestream posts. just some minor tweaks to some stuff that’s been bugging me that i’ve been staring at, especially since getting feedback about the concept from matt mullenweg some of which is repeated at the end of his recent micro/megablogging post.
