Leibson's Law: It takes 10 years for any disruptive technology to become pervasive in the design community. This blog is about the disruptive technologies that either have or will win over electronic engineers, some that won't, and why. Please feel free to link to these blog entries! Written by Steve Leibson, a freelance content creator and marketing/lead-generation consultant specializing in high-tech companies, former VP of Content for Reed Business, and former Editor in Chief of three publications including EDN.

Found: A Use for Twitter—Blog Announcer
Apr 7 2009 6:44PM | Permalink |Comments (2) |
During a phone conversation with EDN editor and close friend Margery Conner, I finally got a use for Twitter. Margery told me that people would more speedily find out about these blogs if I Tweeted them. It’s even faster than an RSS feed she explained after I asked. So if you cannot wait to find out when my next blog entry hits the Blogosphere, then you’ll find my Tweets posted by “therealsleibson” in the Twittersphere.

I follow some bloggers via both RSS and Twitter. But I tend to click on the tweets more often, for whatever reason.

Tweets are shorter, easier to read. It's like reading a list of newspaper headlines, you basically know what each link is about in just one sentence and select the ones you like.
