Where's a Damn Lighthouse When You Need One?

Join me as I dive into the hive mind and navigate the Twitterverse. Along the way I'll learn the lingo and adopt a new twexicon, advance-search tweets, identify trends, follow tweople and find some twools to organize it all.

Aaaaand ... I figured while I'm at it, might as well take a peak in my own mind and see what's cookin'. My voyage through the uncharted waters of Lake Laid Off began in November '08. I can't believe it's March '09. It took a little time (more on that later) to start jotting everything down. Some days it’s smooth sailing, others I’m just trying to stay afloat. But everyday I strive to make sense of where I’m heading and how I’ll get there, hoping to make (at least some!) smart decisions along the way.
