NASCAR Nation Lets Build the Biggest Twitter Account Ever
Not related to NASCAR but a good summary of why NASCAR fans should use Twitter as well as anyone who uses SMS to stay connected with their posse. In fact that is what we should do ZuDDies. Create a twitter account named NASCAR Posse, can it be that many characters? Then we all sign up and we have this big huge NASCAR nation conduit that would rival the accounts of anyone on Twitter today! What do you say to that gang. What do say? <crickets>
Ok, then... Here is a reason to use twitter even if you guys don't want to take it to the next level and have more followers than any Twitter account active today! <crickets>
Here's the quote from Robin Bloor who oddly enough started following ol' ZuD on the Twitter service today. He has a magnificent Blog with a title that is almost as good as mine: Have Mac Will Blog
I just love that title it's like the old TV show: Have Gun Will Travel
Staring the great Richard Boone, I encourage you to research him as he made some drop dead performances that scared even me.

I read a post on the Technobabble 2.0 blog the next day that quoted my remark; “Robin Bloor says real analysts don’t tweet” and under it was published a list of 50 or so analysts, all of whom were registered on Twitter and tweeting regularly.

Since then I have found other reasons why Twitter is not just a good idea, but imho destined to grow much larger than it is now. Here’s a list:
