Column: To Tweet or not to Tweet

Email

WWW - With the advent and release of Twitter in the summer of 2006, I swore, as a freelancer who did much of his work on a barstool, I shall never Tweet.

I needed more than 140 characters.

I blogged like it was a daily addiction on any topic from anti-war rhetoric to covering the finals of the Old Timers Hockey Tournament in Detroit Lakes from the scorer's box, typically with bad gin and cheap juice.
