Charles Cooper’s article noting the rise of Twitter as part of the media fabric is a cue for surfacing a long conversation I had yesterday with some of my 800 Twitter followers. The pretext was my post about the end of software and the number of thanks folk posted on Twitter. On this occasion I donned my CIO suit of armor, complete with tin lid for what turned into an entertaining discussion. You may (or may not) agree with all/any/none of what’s said but even so, it gives insight into how the edge case people who turn up at Twitter are thinking and how the medium works.
