A twittering life…
My name is Antonio. I don’t have a cubicle or corporate office. I have a wicked smart virtual team. I work for Accenture.
I have meetings all day. Many projects to manage. I collaborate with New York, Saint Louis, Boston, Chicago, China, Japan, Italy, UK, Germany, Australia and others. My life is fast. I twitter.
I went into facebook and it worked for a while. Now it is too slow.
My friends and co-workers have @ symbols either before or after their names. I take breaks. I clear my thoughts. I get ideas. I meet my co-workers in corporate offices and my @friends at unconferences.
I am not attached to a location. I am attached to a business objective. I need tools. Fast tools. Mobile tools. Reliable tools. Good ideas. Better processes. I twitter.

That’s funny - My family is about to grow by 2 (at the same time) and my wife will be at home. I guess I’ll have to get a phone with a really good wireless antena and a train to be fast at muting =)
So Anotonio - you twitter - therefore you are?
Would you say your most important use of Twitter is to collaborate INSTANTLY with your world wide team? Or something else?
And do you have different @ TWitter ID’s for different purposes?
It’s been Great Tweeting with you on Twitter!
@CoachDeb
I would say twitter helps me be more creative - because it creates a testing environment for ideas that is on and available at all times. Not yet for work 100%.
My main point was that twitter fits the fast pace of current society. It’s light, mobile and not intrusive. You can tap *real* people in real time. You can turn it off at any point to do work or for meetings. You can take it with you or not.
I’ve even been helped by a fellow twitterer when I was taking care of some frustrating task. That helped me finish my task much quicker.
Thanks for the comment @coachdeb
not to mention - It’s light, mobile and not intrusive while tanning at the BEACH! eh?! LOL
I love hearing about how Twitter is a useful MOTIVATIONAL tool - as u described when a Twitter Friend (Fweep) helped u complete a task in record time - while making it more enjoyable. Now THAT’s a GREAT use 4 Twitter!
You’ve got it! ![]()

Ooh.
Now see, I would love that sort of environment. Much better than “have you logged into the server remotely so we can connect?”
(un)Fortunately, having retreated from IT to full-time parenting, I’m just a shout away from my daughter. Old school triumphs in that real-space setting!
