I also started using Twitter, more or less, during my visit to C4 (a very well put together indie mac dev conference in Chicago). That's also where I met al3x for the first time, back when Twitter was almost more famous in the States for being a working Ruby on Rails app. It was a surprisingly influential conference, I'm learning in retrospect. My thoughts drift back to that weekend from time to time, which has increased since I stopped using Twitter this week. If I could go back in time, I might go back to that conf and make a couple different decisions just to see how timeline divergent my life ended up. I still have the weirdly colorful tie I got there.
