Twitter Is The New Zen

What are you doing?

By now many of you have heard of Twitter, the micro-blogging/status network that’s popular with a lot of marketers right now.

Regardless of how you feel about Twitter or it’s use, you can’t deny it’s Zen quality.

When you’re using Twitter and in the “Twitterstream” you’re in. When you’re out, you’re out. There’s no searching the archives, no paging back for hours reading the comments of everyone you’re following. You have to accept the fact that the information thats happening now is the most important information there is. As they say, “The past is past, The future is yet to be”.

At first it may seem unsettling because there’s a tendency to feel like you’re missing something, like you’re out of the loop. But soon you begin to realize that everyone’s out of the loop.

Unless, of course, they’re in the loop.

Happy Twittering (and follow me if you’d like)
