Thank you, Jeri. You were one of the first people I met on Twitter, and I remember when you would show up in the midst of the insanity, and jump right in with your smile and joy. Recently, when I feared Twitter was losing its mojo, there you were to remind me how much I love the true connections that are made there on a regular basis. Wish you’d been in Dallas in November. Next time. Yes, together we can #TakeTwitterBack, and #ENB until Ed no longer Needs Bob!

LOL oooooo Mara
….you KNOW I love this post…every last word, what a delight to see and feel so many of the tweeties I know & love too….and yes that’s the oddest part of Twitter isn’t it? Those deep, very real emotional connections that are so, so strong…yet to the uninitiated IRL ppl causes utter confusion & massive head shaking disbelief.

Not much more to say then #TakeTwitterBack (def my fav #) Well that and #ENB… *wink*

When I read the other day that John Mayer was thinking of closing his account because Twitter over, I just laughed. It’s exactly what you put into it. I’ve started a new list and movement #TakeTwitterBack to counter all the spam, bots and hired tweeters. We’re keeping it real! #ENB

Absolutely brilliant explanation of Twitter! You use the technology to the fullest and reap the rewards which allows you to view further possibilities and encourage others to see them, too. Keep on pushing the limits and letting us share your adventures. #ENB You are an inspiring writer. Thanks for sharing.Cheers! Karen

Mara, You are amazing You and my other twitter friends are true friends. I still can not believe how many people I have met on the web are some of my best friends. I use to believe (not unlike alot of folks out there) that friends were only people you have actually met. SO VERRY WRONG. Even though we have never met I can honestly say you are one of my dear close friends Love to you,DC (SimplyJulia)

oh my i loved this. when someone asks me why i'm on twitter i'm going to point to this post. you have formulated the twitter experience in a way that just helped me to understand why i'm fascinated with it.

i formed the same wonderful friendships when i joined a project 365 group on flickr. a year later some of those folks who started out as strangers became close personal friends. almost three years later we are still meeting members from that group!

i can see twitter has the same potential.

thanks mara for the great post.

What a beautiful and insightful article on the pleasures of Twitter. And I'm happy to see that we met a mutual friend on Twitter — @MarkHundley ! Thanks for expressing so eloquently what I've tried to explain to people about the benefits and joys of "tweeting."
