@Gary: NP, Twitter needs channels/groups though so I can separate my PDX Tweeters from my Oracle Tweeters.

@Andy C: I have no problem broadcasting blog content. I try to keep it relevant to my audience of followers, but even so, I still wander.

I think it is perfectly acceptable to either selectively post blog articles (or automatically re-blog all content) to Twitter.

I don't know (or care) whether my handful of Twitter friends are familiar with my blog so my articles could be viewed as Tweets > 140 characters.

Any existing readers can easily skip the blog content as it is clearly marked 'New blog post:' (from Twitter Tools).

Yup! And I found this post due to Twitter - especially people I trust and follow.

Thanks for the tips!

@James: I read it yesterday afternoon, quite informative, and yes, humorous in spots. Sounds like SAP is continuing to follow the model Oracle did in enterprise s/w creeping out of a core competency into other areas where value can be added.

just read the last two sections. details of next releases of SAP Collaboration Server, and a writeup of a "packaged M&A scenario" which looks at enterprise data, and imports from orkut. the blog itself has some nice touches of humour if i do say so myself, but not enough to draw you in/keep you interested evidently.

@jwoyang: How about let OTHERS promote you? Surely more authentic then relentless "Look how gorgeous I am" Twittering?

I have no problem with promoting a blog over Twitter. RSS has become a chore, so it's been nice to get your "greatest hits" over Twitter. Wouldn't have seen your post today if not for Twitter.

I should clarify that Twitter is a subset of people I've chosen, targeted by me to follow. So, spam could be easily filtered out by no-following.

TinyURL does make it easy to raise the pageviews though.

Yup, I promote my posts, but people click on them because I'm already part of the conversation, listening, talking, dialoging (is that a word?). It's not just me shouting at everyone to 'look at my blog'.

A few other 'a-list' bloggers have not figured that out.

See you in the conversation!
