Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?

Rev Run, an 80s rapper reinvents himself on Twitter, fantastic.

How do you decide what to tweet?

yes it has, I now get 95% of the news from Twitter. Over the last two years I have made a lot of new friends thanks to Twitter.

AT&T would have fixed their wireless network and there will be a mobile app for the Shorty Awards.
