It’s easter Monday and i’m at the zoo. It’s a beautiful day and everyone is on their mobile phone…
Taking pictures, checking email,blogging…
Have you caught the twitter phenomenon yet? (twitter.com)
Got me thinking…How is the mobile going to effect your niche?
Not to mention the iPhone…
Have a great easter Monday.

Signed up for Twitter, and I’m trying to work out what it does (ie - where the real value is in it).
A few colleagues have complained that it’s just annoying (having SMS’s coming in every few minutes) and they can’t work out why/how any venture capitalist would have paid to fund it.
So far, I think the real value in it is in reminding people about you (so that they don’t have to check their e-mails / RSS feeds - you can reach into their mobile phone).
So when you have a new blog post, or a time-limited offer, you can broadcast it via Twitter.
I also think there’s some serious potential for a short message to go viral through Twitter in the same way a chain letter does. (ie - “Send this to your friends through Twitter and….”)

Re: Check Move Theory - Euge gave me the brief 411, and I’ve since bought “Wombat Selling” from Amazon to learn more.
Euge and I are working at the same company again, as of last week.
