(btw, I got the idea to do this page from @wilw’s what to expect page. He’s awesome.)
So you found my twitter page and clicked on the “web” link to find out more.
Or you’re following me on twitter and you just don’t get it.
Or both.

Meanwhile, in the interest of full disclosure, here’s a few things you need to know if you are following me on twitter:
I tweet a lot. And I mean A LOT. On a slow day, I’m tweeting 20 times. On a big day, over 100. So if you are only following a few dozen people, there will be days where I will fill up your entire stream. I suggest you use a twitter client like Tweetdeck or Seesmic, or use twitter lists (which is what I do) to make sure you see your most important people’s tweets. But I’m not going to stop tweeting so much, so don’t ask me to.
I use hashtags. In a completely inappropriate and abuse of the hashtag system. And I don’t capitalize words internally in the hashtag (regardless of how much I care about the annoyance level of @unmarketing). If you can’t handle that, then don’t read those tweets.
I try to reply to @ replies and DMs, but I don’t reply to everything. Sometimes because I don’t have a reply. Sometimes because I’m just overwhelmed and miss them. It’s not that I don’t care or appreciate you. Please try again.
I don’t automatically follow back. I don’t look to see who followed me yesterday and check out their bio to see if I should follow back. I used to do that, but I got too far behind and just had to stop doing it. Please don’t take it personally – if you engage with me and we resonate w/ each other, and I figure out that I’m not following you, I will follow.
Twitter is where I am the most myself. Pretty much like me in real life after two margaritas. And once I’ve actually had two margaritas, my tweets get really entertaining / inappropriate. If you are easily offended or don’t resonate with me, feel free to unfollow, no hard feelings.
Some links I tweet are affiliate links. Because you could pay them, or you could pay both me and them. If you don’t like that, just do a google search for what I’m talking about. I would *never* recommend something unless I have used it myself or have a relationship with the creator such that I am confident that the service/product is awesome. If you don’t like something that I have recommended, please let me know.
I tell the whole story. Sometimes I’m full of joy and celebration and certainty and fun. But it’s not always pretty or happy. Sometimes I’m messy. Sometimes I’m freaking out or confused or don’t know what the heck I am doing. I occasionally use bad words, typically late at night.
I speak my truth. That may not be your truth. The truth is not always nice or politically correct. If you only want to read things that are exactly what you want to hear, I’m not the right person to follow.
I care about you and want to connect with you. There are days when I will not be able to respond to you, or look at your link. There are days where you may see me in real life and I don’t look like I want to talk to anyone. I’m an introvert (really!) and I get overwhelmed and I am not always *on* to engage with the world. But I do want to talk to you. Please say hi.
Twitter changed my life. The closest, more real, most intimate relationships I have ever had happened because of twitter. I finally found my voice, who I really am, because of twitter. I wish twitter would let me send them money. Until then, twitter, I think you are awesome. Even when I complain about you.
I have an inner circle, and I can’t promise you will be in it. I can’t be best friends with everyone. You can’t be best friends with everyone. That’s not possible, and we as humans are not meant to do that. And especially as an INFJ, I can only let in a few people at a time (because I don’t do it half-way). Please don’t be upset if I can’t give you as much attention as someone else. It is not a rejection of you.
All my tweets are written and posted live by me. I don’t pre-schedule anything, and no one else tweets on my account. (**When I was in the hospital with my daughter, Carla Young & Ken Moorhead tweeted on my account, and pre-scheduled tweets for me. Their tweets are designated as such.) The side effect of that is I may miss stuff. If I’m missing you, feel free to @/DM again. 
Thank you so much for following me on twitter. I am honored. And I can’t believe it. You people freak me out. And I love you. #thatisall
