interestingness (and other 21st Century Skills To Teach Your Kids)
bored
I did not realize people were having such a hard time trying to find people to follow on Friendfeed and Twitter.
So as a public service I have gone through my Twitter and Friendfeed lists and put together a list of people you should follow and probably aren’t.
They all have only have one thing in common.
http://twitter.com/tylermackechnie a 14yo kid who twits about his life and happens to be a tech junkie. Why follow? He’s been to like 7 countries and tweets things to friends like “iPhones are better than Sidekicks”
http://friendfeed.com/okdork Everyone should follow Noah Kagan who runs the website okdork, which is one of the most interesting sites around if you are into marketing, online communities and the like. Plus he is always giving away stuff.
http://twitter.com/hairandeyes some college kid who loves her mom and is headed to NYC this week. How interesting do you think that will be?
law

I don’t Twitter or do Friendfeed. In fact I rarely text or SMS. I find that since I use to have a cell phone for work for about four years, I consider a cell phone like a leash. I rarely get any calls on it. I use it to tell the time mostly. I don’t have an iPhone and don’t plan on getting one, even with the new ones that just came out.
But hey, lots of people use those services. I rarely check my Facebook anymore either. Usually once every few weeks.

Good to see Chartreuse back in action. I saw a tweet of yours to 1938media and that’s what prompted me to check back here. Twitter is still not dead.

Hey, man, thanks so much for the shout. I’m pleased to get a nod from you, since I dig this site. You’ve really perfected your style of arresting visuals and almost haiku-like text. Unfortunately, for me, I’m not sure my brain’s wired that way.
See you around soon!
