Everyday, I spend more and more of my time “blogging” on Twitter, a global chat room that lets you tell the world what you’re doing in 140 characters or less. With a thriving community that includes @RobertBluey, @MarcAmbinder, @AnaMarieCox, @SorenDayton, @SeanHackbarth, @WilliamBeutler, @MarshallManson, @Flap and many more, I find it to be a great place to develop ideas that then get strung into longer blog posts.

Usually how it works is that a thought about the Presidential race or online media will pop into my head, and a few seconds later, it’s on Twitter. It lets you be raw and unfiltered in a way that not even a blog can.

If you’re a Twitter user, you can follow my updates via my Twitter profile. But I’d like to encourage those not on Twitter to follow me by subscribing to my newly burned RSS feed. Since I’ve never liked short-form blogging, Twitter is a whole new communications channel for me, one that I post to a dozen or more times a day. Think of it as the “DVD extras” of this blog.

I also cross post my blog entries and my del.icio.us links, making it the closest thing to a complete aggregator of my online activity that there is (for those of you who are gluttons for punishment).

To learn more, read about my successful experiment in aggregating Iowa Caucus results on Twitter, check out Politweets.com which aggregates Twitter updates on the Presidential candidates, and take a look at how journalists are using Twitter to report in real time.
