I find it encouraging and informational to find out what real people are doing throughout the day. jjcutt is a good example of a "normal" Christian just making it thru the day.

In addition, a number of companies are using that to inform their customers realtime of products and deals you wouldn't get otherwise; wtsbooks is a great example.

Certainly not alone. I read your entry, and still dont understand. I just don't have the time to be typing/reading random thoughts.

If anyone's interested, I created a Twitter for the PCA's web magazine, ByFaith. It updates whenever a new article is posted.

Anyone else care to share or know any more worthwhile accounts to follow?
