Ms. Mojo persuaded me – she can be very persuasive – that tweeting could be cool. I’m skeptical, but game.
Not about me
For those of you coming in even later, Twitter is the trendy new revenue-free social web phenom. Users communicate through messages of no more than 140 characters dubbed “tweets.”
Some call it “micro-blogging.” Expect storage-focused tweets. Click here to follow StorageMojo .
What do 140 character StorageMojo posts look like?
Here are the 3 most recent – and only – StorageMojo tweets, presented in their entirety:
Fusion-io’s ioDrive.”. . .scary fast in a database server, especially when it comes to tiny random write IO’s.” http://tr.im/hDVv
Latest LTO tape is spec’d at 200 entire read/writes. What if disks had that spec? http://tr.im/hDUU
Cisco to Buy Video Camera Maker Pure Digital – are they nuts? Kodak’s mtk cap is $1B – with real assets & a great brand.
The weird URLs are compressed – like TinyURLs – and clickable. The latest 5 tweets are also on the StorageMojo home page, as is a “follow” link. Look below the tower ad in the far right sidebar.
The StorageMojo take
I hope this makes Ms. Mojo happy. And who knows, the 21st century telegram may grow on us.
Courteous comments welcome, of course.

I’m working on my own nano-thought technology that will broadcast the firing of individual brain synapses. In phase 2 I’m hoping to record superimposition of quantum states. This would have the added advantage that, when read, the individual’s state of uncertainty will disappear through the workings of quantum entanglement and the collapse of the quantum probability function. They will therefore have been forced into a decision, albeit probably not having any record of how they came to it.
