We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year’s Day. Edith Lovejoy Pierce
Thanks Twitter for a fantastic year of participating in a great, wide spectrum of community like:
- professional feedback (often when presenting live);
- political banter;
- DNC coverage and blogging it from Denver this year;
- collaboration offline, and in this case at BarCampDC 2008 with Shireen Mitchell i.e. @digitalsista;
- and fun(!).
Did you see this from Rich Becker? He describes Twitter to his son set to holiday story traditions - wonderful.
And to continue in that spirit, I share some fun below that emerged with help from Todd R. Jordan (@tojosan); Mayra Ruiz-McPherson (@marketingMisfit), and Chloe (@chloedc)

…and to clarify the screenshot, the text follows:
Twitter Holiday Story p4: Jingle tweeps jingle tweeps tweeting all the way, oh what fun it is 2 tweet w/ bunch of tweeters yay! @marketingMisfit
Twitter Holiday Story, p3: hashtag was #twalidays, they all tweeted galore & New Yr Resos were ‘we’ll have to tweetup more!’ go @chloevdc!
Twitter Holiday Story, p2: …Blog posts were posted by bloggers with care, In hopes that St. Brogan would soon review there, go @tojosan!
Twitter Holiday Story, p1: There once was a meetup where all thru the house, all tweeters were giddy, not one was a louse!
Great post Jill in that captures the spirit of the seaosn. I loved your Twitter Holiday Story as it was happening in real time.
Wonderful stuff.
All my best,
Rich
