Jason--I also believe it's all conversation--which is good. And we can totally tune out if we want--which is great! I will add, however, I feel that we can get more from the conversation and we can have more potential value if people are mindful of what they are saying. For instance, one could tweet: "just had lunch" OR one could tweet: "I just had lunch at Cuomo's on Park. It was fantastic!" The second tweet is much more of a conversation starter, much more revealing, much more engaging...and it's not that much harder to write. What do you guys think? While the first is valid and tells us about the person Cheryl–I agree that there may be potential value and dare I say–opportunity –in every conversation.

If you do not wish to hear it from someone on twitter, unfollow. On fb, unfriend. In real life, it gets more complicated. Thumbs-up to this post. It's called choice people. Exercise it!
