Check out my FavStar page for tweets of mine that other people like.
I actively "star" all tweets I find interesting.
Check out my Twitter favorites
for the best tweets from people on my feed.
(I may also star a few of my own, but only after other people have starred them first.)
I would appreciate you starring ()
any tweets of mine that you enjoy
(because that's what gets me on FavStar). No limit! I also appreciate your retweets and
word-of-mouths.
Most of my tweets are coming at you LIVE as I think of them!
Occasionally, I may
plagiarize myself by retweeting what
I have previously tweeted, but most of my stuff is "in the moment" arising from
whatever is going on in my head at the time.
Unless you see quotation marks around something, each tweet is my own original work (trademarked, copyrighted, patent pending, etc.). Feel free to retweet and quote it as you wish, as long as reasonable credit is given and you don't claim it as yours.
(If you doubt my tweet is original, google it in "quotes".)
If you think I should be following you (or someone else), send me an
email: glenn (at) kilroycafe.com
If you want to contact me, I prefer email rather than Direct Messages or "@" Replies. (However, the 140-character limit is still appreciated, even in email!)
I read most of the tweets I am subscribed to (although I can sometimes lapse
for a few days when I busy with something else). However, I look at only a few of the
links, photos and retweets, in part because I usually read on a Blackberry.
I look at the Twitter page and website of every new follower.
I actively block spambots and marketers from my followers list, so
most of my followers
are real people or a reasonable facsimile thereof. (If you're not, let me know and I'll block you too!)
I have never blocked another human in anger,
only alleged followers who I believe are not
human or who only want to sell me something.
If I have blocked you in
error, email me to appeal the decision.
(But then, you wouldn't have found this page, would you?
Quite a conundrum, eh?)
I unfollow people mainly when they are producing a lot of tweets that
don't seem relevant to me or whose oeuvre has become repetitive.
It's nothing personal; my brain just has limited
bandwidth. If you think I should try
you again, send me an email. I probably won't unfollow you if you remain silent (because silence is golden) or if you produce only occasional spurious tweets.
It is only the high-volume feeds that I am forced to make a decision about.
Check out my Twitter Style Guide for tips on how to improve your own
tweets.
When I find a typo in one of my tweets (or some other way to improve it), I may
retweet it and delete the old one later. You should star only the latest.
(After 24 hours, the tweet is permanent, for better or worse.)
I have a lot of great tweets in my archive that
no one has ever noticed. You can give them new life by retweeting them. In the archive, click on the "view/retweet" link to go to that tweet on Twitter.
Check out my One-Page
Philosophy Essays (the Kilroy Cafe newsletter) which are
often related to the same topics as my tweets.
Feel free to friend me on Facebook. (Most of my Facebook page is public anyway, so if you prefer "just lurking", that's fine, too.) For a lower-volume feed of my new work, you can
fan me instead.
All of my photo albums are stored on Facebook and indexed on
RoamingPhotos.com
(perhaps delayed by a few days). For the latest additions (no delay), see my Facebook albums.
For the record, I do not tweet and drive, because that would be illegal in
many states if I am caught.
