Don Watcher on Twitter

I've recently started using Twitter. Twitter is a micro-blog that allows you to send messages of 140 characters or less. Presumably this was designed for use by mobile devices such as cell phones and Blackberries. Although I have neither, I think there might be some value in using it. For now I will use it for posts such as meeting alerts, pointing out an interesting blog about the Don. Occasionally I might use it to plug this blog, especially for significant posts.

For anyone not on twitter, you need to sign up for the service. Once logged in you can start to 'follow' a twitter feed. So if you start 'following' donwatcher on Twitter, anything that I post will show up in your list of posts which you can read and take note of.

Good to see you're on Twitter, before long you'll be live-blogging the various meetings you go to!

Here are some other Toronto related Twitter accounts you might find useful:

Add http://twitter.com/ in front of each:

torontoist

No doubt lots more, too!
