    Aaron - thanks for the read and follow. Good post. I am now following you back. Your comments are appreciated. I think one thing people forget when they tweet is, we all eat lunch, we all have meetings, we all do the mundane. One can bring the personal side out through blogs and even the tone of our tweets. When you are connected to hundreds and then thousands, it's impossible to sort through the streams of information.

    Stay connected.

    This topic is at the heart of more than just a few chats about Twitter and such. For some the personal info bits are a distraction in the extreme, where it is like background noise for me. I enjoy the random "moment of life" comment that strikes a chord and I laugh out loud ... really. Or, when someone rediscovers riding a bike, and puts a tactical description to the experience in a tweet, it is a happy moment.
    I keep coming back for the value, the links to content that give me something. That, I believe, is the glue that makes this social media have true life and a future.
    And yes, Aaron, I have that same conversion ratio thing going on.
