If you don’t know by now I love Twitter. I actually don’t tweet that much but the 100 or so people I follow regularly share links or interesting stuff that I find relevant almost everyday in work.

Yesterday Darren Rowse of Problogger was attending a Search Engine Boot Camp in Melbourne and live twittering – I grabbed these four quotes which I thought summed up web development (and indeed the outlook on things we have here at Xebidy):

  • “most people when they do site redesigns dump their sites and lose all the learning they gained from the previous one”
  • “why site design fails, poor planning, no customer centric architecture, upsidedown design with content last (it should b 1st)”
  • “people come to your site with a purpose in mind – understand what that is and deliver upon it & you’ll have a successful site”
  • “A blogger can have more influence than a major brand has over their own brand online” – Jason West

And yes, I do think Twitter is effecting my blogging as I spend less time reading my RSS reader and more time being in the moment following links shared by those that I follow on Twitter – supposedly guided by their relevancy! It means that I am doing less personal writing and more spur of the moment quick commenting. You can always follow me on Twitter @xebidy
