If is not a big secret, could you share with us how you added it on your blog? Because I am not much of a coder and a friend from work was asking me if is possible to add something like this on a blog. And now I see is possible. Thanks I noticed lately that you added that small box with “What I Am Doing On Twitter”. If is not a big secret, could you share with us how you added it on your blog?

In a way I want to create a big LCD panel in my mom's kitchen because she'll get the answer to the question she always asks me - "What have you been up to". That's the thing with Twitter, the social contract is so loose that it is a good way to stay involved with a group of "friends". It's great because the people using Twitter are ALOT like me personally so there is a lot of overlap in our knowledge but when there is a hole someone who "kind of" knows you can really help you out.

Twitter is something different. I use it through my IM client. And unlike my p2p IM chats, my twits get indexed by google. :-0 I guess I better behave myself ;-) Good post Ryan.
