Ma intreb ce ramane

RoTweetMeet 1.0…

Ne-am vazut, ne-am placut, am schimbat intre noi carti de vizita mai mult sau mai putin branduite, am baut mai multa sau mai putina bere, ne-am amuzat unii pe seama altora, ne-am cunoscut off-twitter si offline.

Si dupa toate astea

Communication is the enemy

Oh hai. Looks like I’ve been away for far too long and this place doesn’t seem to reflect me anymore. Well, there’s pretty much ONE other place you can find me lately - except for the lovely UnseenRomania - and that is… the mighty TWITT-ER!

Some say it’s no good and vicious, others spell addiction all over, but they do agree on one thing: Twitter is it! This cute pixel-birdie has become a massive aggregator of web 2.0 VIPs and events, being the latest most popular sh*te in micro-blogging (the spring to ~1 million users in just a few months speaks by itself).

A huge number of desktop, web and mobile apps have been developed from its API (e.g. Twitdir, Hashtags, Twitterposter, Twitstat, TweetScan etc etc etc) - all serving the ultimate purpose of making Twitter a friendlier and more useful place to be.

The Zen of Todoist:

Now is better than later.
Later is better than never.
Organized is better than messy.
Big things are composed by smaller things.
Smaller things are done by action.
Think like a person of action.
Act like a person of thought.
The beginning is half of every action.
The longest journey starts with the first step.
Everything should be made as simple as possible.
But not simpler.
Celebrate any progress.
Don’t wait to get perfect.
Deadlines and stress are a part of life.

This web 2.0 bubble of crap is going to crack real soon.

UPDATE: Jason Calacanis has a definition of the web 3.0 for you, eCostin. :)
