On Checking Out My Awesome Twitter Subscribers

I was checking out my Twitter subscribers for ProHipHop and for Hip Hop Press and I have to say you're quite an awesome collection of folks.  It makes me feel like I'm getting something right around here.

Seeing who's subscribed in the context of Twitter gives one a much stronger sense of who's interested than does RSS or email newsletter subscriber lists.  So I wish they'd take their claim to be a "communications utility" a bit more seriously and add RSS subscription options to the basic service.

Twitter's still very much in an early adopter phase and, though the tech crowd has already swamped the scene, tech savvy individuals in areas like urban media and marketing haven't yet become a crowd creating opportunities for networking that will become more difficult if the service reaches the mainstream.  So now's better than later to get on board if you're all about having that digital edge.

It's great to have you folks subscribing via Twitter and I hope my current approach to headline writing is serving you well.
