I was thinking along the same lines as you the day after posting, remembering it's not about technology, it's about people. And that it is about how we use the tools in order to ignite people that is important, not any given template for how to use it. So, I was trying to enforce a rule, when there are non :o) Again, thanks for the contribution! Best Helge Hi thanks for the polite correction Steve, and the very nice comment.

I think it's a mistake when we put false barriers around what a tool like Twitter should and shouldn't be used for. The reality is that Twitter CAN be used as a broadcast medium, AND a listening/sharing/relationship tool at the same time. Somebody can have 96,000 followers and still have an intimate relationship with a smaller number of those people. Keep up the great work - I'm shocked that more people aren't following your work and interacting with you. Helge – I agree with you 99% of the time, but not this time.
