		<description>Recently, I&#039;ve begun seeing Twitter show up in places I&#039;d not thought of. I&#039;ve begun playing with the idea. You&#039;ve inspired this. 

You may find it more useful to have a twitter feed on your site, like over to the right. (with the other &quot;dead&quot; links)(laughs)  Have not tried that so cannot suggest how to do it, but it would be more timely, the most recent few thoughts...</description>

		<description>Back in Tokyo now. Had an interesting sight at a Zen temple in Kyoto, but will go into that later.

Twitter isn&#039;t all that bad. If you tried it, it might end up being a good thing for you, but it all depends on how you might use it as a learning tool. I mean, Davidya and Takuin are not really the kind of people to use Twitter to say, &quot;I just ate some eggs,&quot; or whatever.  ;)

I think I understand why I do not like these twitter posts. They are extremely dead! As you probably know, I never go back into posts to update them or change them. In fact, once the post is up, I never want to see it again. It might as well be burned as far as I am concerned. So by the time the tweets show up on the site, they are long since dead. And the delay in the posting acts as an exclamation point, stressing the dead-ness. 

And speaking of new technology, I just enabled threaded comments here and I can&#039;t remember to use the damn things! haha...although I managed it this time.</description>

		<description>Well yes, simplicity and getting to the point are good lessons. 
A fellow writer is promoting a course on using Twitter. I&#039;ve seen it mostly as self -absorption and focusing too much on detail. But then, the same could be said of many blogs...

I&#039;ve been trying to avoid adding yet another technology to monitor. Guess it&#039;s like group IM.</description>

		<description>Looking at it now, it is not so very pretty, is it? I do not like the way it looks. This may end up being an extremely short lived experiment.  ;)

I don&#039;t know about inviting conversation, or just skimming, but twitter may be a good tool for writers, although they probably do not see it as such. It can help one to understand the elegance of simplicity, or the power hiding within a single word. 

Even so, I&#039;ll probably kill this when I get back from Kyoto, or let it go for just one more week.</description>

		<description>You&#039;ve been twitterpated. (an old Looney Toons term) Yes, I figured Tom was to blame (laughs)
One can certainly get into Haiku&#039;s with a tweet.  But does it invite conversation, or just skimming life?</description>

		<description>Thanks to Tom Stine for pointing out the plug-in &lt;em&gt;twitter tools&lt;/em&gt;. I will use it for a bit and see how it goes over.</description>
