Twitter @ TED2008

A guest post from blogger and Twitter-er Jim Stolze:

Twitter?
If you don’t know what Twitter is, you may have missed one of the most exciting new tools on the web. It’s social, it’s relevant, it’s sometimes useless, it’s fun, it runs on any platform: mac, windows, mobile, chat, mail, and it’s completely free!

So, who’s with us?
To point out who is twittering at TED I picked a selection of tweets from some TEDizens. Hope you like it and that you give Twitter a try -- and don’t forget to put the #TED (hash) in your message, so that it will automatically show up in the feeds.

With many thanks to:

* pierre
* chris
* mitch
* tara
* michael
* josh
* gia
* and everyone who is twittering but I forgot to mention

See you at TED!
