My Twitter lessons .. No 7 (My first Live Twit)

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Today was a landmark day for me in my Twitter journey.  I met my first Twit (someone who I only met via Twitter).  I can’t tell you how I actually connected with this person, perhaps they follow someone who I follow.  I deliberately looked at people who were more established on Twitter who specialised in Change.  However, they responded to something I tweeted and it turned out they had spotted my blogs on Ecademy.  I then learnt that in this whole big global community, that they lived about 15 miles from me.

We have just met up for lunch and had all sorts of interesting things to discuss and share.  I think that this is a wonderful example of the possibilities that twitter can unleash.  It has the power to unleash random forces into your live if you allow it to.
