A Sign Of The Times

Omnipresence was another big theme in 2007 with Twitter bringing always on, always available communication to the masses. Whether this is merely the beginning of a broader trend, or something that will pass in 2008 is still to be seen. Certainly I’m not sure if I want to see lot of people live twittering births, like we saw from Robert Scoble this year, but perhaps overall we’re all the richer for the networking Twitter delivers.

NC Winters at Freelance Switch sums it up nicely; Twitter fans can substitute Twitter for blog. For our coverage of Twitter this year, click here.

I'm a huge fan of Twitter (follow me at http://twitter.com/jeffhester). It makes is easy to share thoughts, links and ideas as they occur, without the effort of a full-blown blog entry.

As Techcrunch noted, it's a great networking tool, but it's also educational. I can "follow" people that I admire and learn how they achieve success through by their tweets... assuming of course, that they share regularly, honestly and completely.
