What's your best tweet?
I try not to think that way - let the twittersphere be the judge of that
What are six things you could never do without?
Air. Water. Food. Trees. Mates. Love. Beauty.
How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
I don't use it to make money, so I guess I am an amateur, using it for love.
What's your favorite Twitter app?
I like being able to tweet from my mobile, but that's it really.
Twitter or Facebook?
What was the funniest trend you've seen?
#climatechangefilms e.g. Cry Me a River bed
What feature should Twitter add?
I think it has to be something that tells you who's physically local - in your own back yard - so you can tweep up.
Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?
Muhammad Ali
What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?
namaste
Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?
Muhammad Ali? David Cameron and Nick Clegg (for now.)
Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?
Yes. And I forget.
Why should we vote for you?
You tell me. Your instinct?
Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?
Contraction and Convergence (C&C is a mouthful I know, but a vitally important one.) Oh and #millioncarboncoaches
What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?
Your Mum.
Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?
#millioncarboncoaches or #climatechangesongs
How do you make your tweets unique?
By saying what I mean and meaning what I say... (as Doc Seuss encouraged)
What inspires you to tweet?
Smiles. Insights. Justice. Exposing cheats. Compassion. Passion. Humour. Experimenting with new ways of thinking, tweeting and being.
Ever get called out for tweeting too much?
No - I expect people just 'unfollow' if i overdo it - so I try not to :)
140 characters of advice for a new user?
Succinct is good :)
How long can you go without a tweet?

It's fine as it is. The opportunity for change comes from within ;)

Probably @altepper.
Who is the funniest person on Twitter that you follow?
I laugh a lot at most politicians.
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
That anyone knows what it really is, or could be. In fact it's all things to all tweeps.

They shouldn't. (But they can if they like.)
Can you name some one-of-a-kind Twitter accounts that you follow?
@aubreygci
How do you decide what to tweet?
Instinct. Intuition. Hunch.
Why'd you start tweeting?
cool cosmic consciousness karma and connection
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Yes. On Twitter you can be who you truly are, and who you truly chose to be. You can tell it like it is, and how you truly see it.
What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?
Practice compassion? Random acts of kindness. Peace and Love. Hugs.
How will the world change in the next year?
Beyond recognition. In a good way.
What are some big Twitter faux pas?
Taking self too seriously. Trying to sell anything.
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
Very different. It could go both ways. It's our Choice. And as @Bill_Hicks_RIP said, we get to choose. Love... or Fear.
