Then I started looking at what those tweets actually contained.</p><p>Common themes include:</p><ol><li>Being generally PO&#8217;d with the state of public transport/commuting:<br /><blockquote><p>The automatic announcer that&#8217;s supposed to make up for the shortcomings of the Israeli train schedules didn&#8217;t go off and I missed a train.</p></blockquote></li></ol><ol><li>Boring work related things that nobody who isn&#8217;t in my particular position would ever in their right mind understand or want to understand:<br /><blockquote><p>The guy who did the friday shift didn&#8217;t trace right.</p></blockquote></li><li>Playing (boring) games:<br /><blockquote><p>I played some plants vs zombies. It was cool actually.</p></blockquote></li></ol><p>I began to wonder if that&#8217;s the future of my communication with the outside world will be conducted in 140 characters or less and be about terribly simple things like playing Plants vs. Zombies (update: it&#8217;s a good game).</p><p>So perhaps it won&#8217;t replace it completely, but I wonder just how many of these tweets could have been expanded upon and become fully fledged blog posts. Not that a blog post is much of a step up from a tweet, let&#8217;s face it.</p><p>So I promise I&#8217;ll write more meaningful things, more often.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.dushkin.org/2009/11/28/the-best-of-me/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
