This morning I receieved a tweet from @blockbusterbuzz:

“I have quoted your Twitterings in The Times today (p.19)”

My initial thought was spam, of course. But the profile link checked out. It turns out Michael Moran writes “mainly on popular culture” including, Blockbuster Buzz for Times Online (UK).

I asked for a link. But it’s a print-only situation. Michael was kind enough to send me a quick pic of today’s Chatter: trend, topics and tweets section.

It’s my tweet from yesterday regarding the legendary Lena Horne. Further proof that you never know who’s reading your tweets or how far they travel.

And yes, I’m willing to forgive the camel-casing of jbrotherlove.

Despite repeated requests, my friends know that I don’t use Facebook. But as someone active in social media, I keep tabs on the pulse of those who do use Facebook; especially the latest wave of concern.

I liked the way Hashim summed up his feelings today. Social networks have become ubiquitous and too few of us (myself included) are evaluating the personal and/or professional ROI associated with using these tools.
