I am just beginning to warm to twitter. I live in Wisconsin (go ahead find it on a map) and technology seems to lag here. Twitter is useful if you are exchanging notes amongst a group of people, but up here cell phones are just gaining popularity. I think of it like charity work amongst the technologically challenged.

This post at 0xDECAFBAD blog has an interesting thought one how to tag in twitter. He has come up with the idea of sticky tags or persistent tags. Basically you tag your message and those tags persist across every message until you remove them. Then to follow a thread you simply use http://twitter.com/yourname/tag or http://twitter.com/yourname/tag+tag. I like the idea of keeping it simple. So if I want to follow only your tweets on barcamp but am not really interested in the rest I could use http://twitter.com/yourname/barcamp
