Twog: My TwitLog Experiment

By Ross

The results of my experimenting with Life via Twitter as @rkodner.Here are all my posts since I started Twittering ?way? back in October 2008. This includes my reTweets and replies as well as my own Tweets.

So should this kind of Twitter Log have it?s own name? It would be GREAT if there were software that could harvest this kind of information from one?s Twitter account. I?ve seen TweetScan but it doesn?t seem to get all of it.

New word for this: ?Twog? (short for TweetLog and anticipating the inevitable truncation). Definition: a chronological log of one?s Twitter activity.

So here?s mine, from the AM of March 24^th back to October of 2008. Tried to include ONLY the useful, editing out as much fluff as possible (about 30% fluff I’d say). I’ve also made a selected range of URLs active links (a lot of work since these all came in manually, non-hyperlinked) - it?s all Live via Twitter:
