Some of the blogging team have expressed disappointment with how difficult it is to get our readers commenting. Maybe this would do the trick guys!
I put up the A. B. interview this morning, but I also wanted make a few comments and get the links in. Oh, and the video clip for those of you who are addicted.
GMT
The 5th anniversary of the founding of GMT is coming up in September. I’d like to see some special things put together for the occasion… do you have any ideas for things we could do? Leave a comment and I’ll take it to the leadership team.
I’ve been wrestling with how to approach my Twitter account. I have no interest in microblogging the minutia of my life, or seeing anyone else’s life microblogged. But it seems snobby to use Twitter just as a tool for getting and giving profound thoughts.
Seems some people build readership by adding lots of friends. That strikes me as using people. Others just use it for a small circle of friends. Others don’t subscribe to anyone and use a separate account to follow friends.
Have you wrestled with this? What were your conclusions?

- I’ve just added Kezia Dennison’s new blog Sunergos Aletheia to the blog roll. Check it out.
- NeoBaptist has a great little clip on blogs for beginners.
- Go to the ant… zoom in x400… wow. HT.
Finally, good news! Think of all the money you’ll save on that surgery!

Please Jay don’t hurt the duckie!
I haven’t really gotten into the whole Twitter thing. I think I waste enough time with Facebook I don’t need another outlet to waste my time on.

Jay, S.A. was supposed to be anonymous!!! =P
5 years for GMT? Whoo! Congratulations!
My Twitter is open for anyone, but I only follow 7 people. I don’t know about profound thoughts, but usually what I microblog there is quotes or thoughts that have been on my mind during the day. FWIW, I enjoy your profound thoughts on Twitter. =)
As for the duckie, I think you should pick on someone your own size, you meanie! =P
As for not commenting – blame Apo! =P

Pull the trigger, if the duck dies it was meant to be from before Creation.
As R.C. says, “There are no maverick molecules”

Jason,
maybe you could re post some classic or memorable posts for the 5th anniversary, something evangelistic, some competitions, book give aways etc:)

Rob,
Good ideas for the InFocus anniversary. Actually, InFocus’ fifth anniversary isn’t until next year. So I’m looking more for things that focus on the forums.
Lumpy,
No maverick molecules but the occasional intentional lead. =P
RoZeS,
You should know me better than to think I’m going to promote an anonymous blog! lol btw, I agree, it is usually Apo’s fault.
Mel,
That’s generally how I felt about Twitter..
