Yes, make your own blog and learn how to make it "visible" to a large audience. Also how to serve it in a seamless way for years.
I didn't like Twitter from the very start. There's no chance to have a meaningful discussion in a small window limited to a couple dozen characters regarding what you want to publish. That's just retarded. All important epiphany moments I've had in my life were coming from studying extensively written material, mostly books. Regarding short forms like articles, maybe even multimedia, something similar happened to me maybe 5 times. The only other role these short forms perform is to confirm my believes I've already had. That's pointless for someone who's looking for truth and/or has a need to solve a specific, important problem.
"There might be brilliant people in the world whose brilliant ideas never even crossed our ears" World if fulfilled with brilliant ideas yet majority of population has two left hands and can execute even two projects concurrently, whereas what we deal with nowadays demands a sharp focus on dozens of projects, goals, tasks, etc. Before one is going to move toward using other people's brilliant ideas one must do the job of becoming someone who's capable of doing any advanced stuff at all. That takes years if not decades and has everything to do with a lot of reading and thinking, and nothing with consuming 140-characters long BS created by bozos between eating a morning sandwich and scrolling thru Facebook. Don't be a sheeple, think for yourself. Except of rare cases there's no place for small windows with limited characters input in a life of thoughtful person.
How do you see my post fitting into what the Twitter crowd demands? And I've just touched a tip of an iceberg. Howk!
I don't know even one reasonable person using Twitter for things other than marketing or just messing with sheeple. Really.
PS: Twitter's whole model only contributes to the "loud ideas overcome great ideas" problem.
