I actually have a kid but am less busy now. Crazy. Yes, I am going to have to treat it like email -- not open all day, only allowed to check it at specified times. Michael, I have had the baby — that’s how busy 2008 was for me. I actually have a kid but am less busy now. Crazy.

Yes, I am going to have to treat it like email — not open all day, only allowed to check it at specified times.

Anyway, I had a fun couple of days when I first started using Twitter (getting a desktop client is the only good way to do it). I really had to get used to it sitting there, grabbing my attention. Now, about two months later, I'll completely ignore it unless I'm not doing anything at that particular moment. And that's really how it should be used. Don't bother yourself with reading every single tweet that comes through. (You'll see what I mean once you're following a hundred or two people.)
