I love Twitter, let me start off by making you privy to this simple truth.  Why do I love Twitter? Because of its magnitude (I follow/am followed by people from every continent) and because of its speed (a lot can be expressed when you are not expected to be long-winded--talk about getting to the point!).  Having said that, I was skimming a series of blogs posted by other "Tweeple" (I admit I love the corny lingo as well) and came upon a blog that insisted readers (or ersatz readers if you really think about it)  place no value on quality content and that they only loiter on your blog for a mere 36 seconds.  The notion was that our collective minds and attention are not gratified by the Best-Of anything (they likened it to the McDonalds formula-make a burger good enough and it will be bought, rather than attempting to make the best burger in the world).  The writer was a proponent of pumping out mediocre content, and a lot of it, quickly!  I cringed.  Not because I believe I am to become the Best-Of-Bloggers, but because we as a society have come to accept mediocrity in all its various arenas.  Personally, I would like to challenge the nay-sayers of quality and invite them to put their best efforts forward.   And in staying in alignment with the writers insistence that the reader only stays a half minute on a blog, I closed the link after 30 seconds.  Ahhh, the laws of attraction at work!
