Post an entry in your blog on the topic of Twitter. You might discuss any of the following:

To help you get started, I’ve provided a page of Twitter Resources, here.

This post should include the visual and textual touches we’ve talked about before:

• At least one large great-looking image.

• A “For Further Reading” section, with titles and links to 3-4 relevant online articles
