Selection of My Twitter Favorites, Edition 28

Twitter is a microblogging service where people answer the question "What are you doing?" via 140-character messages from their cellphone, laptop or desktop. You can select the messages you find useful, amusing, or both. Here is the 28th edition of My Twitter Favorites (the oldest post is at the bottom, the newest at the top):

DrCris @AllergyNotes If you follow more people you start to see twitter as a party conversation - if you are there, you are there. If not, fine.

ruraldoctoring I'm interested in the retweeting frenzy. What's next? Pre-tweeting? "I'm planning to tweet about this later, this is merely a concept tweet"

Micro-blogging on Twitter is easy, fun and can be very useful and educational if you follow/subscribe to interesting people.
