Let's see 140 characters, 20 used by bit.ly (plus a space), that leaves 119
(spaces included) on Twitter... so I guess no full links or sentences there...

I think we're constantly told here the manner in which information is
delivered is changing, so this is just another example of it.  Besides,
there's no requirement to click on the link or anything else.

Well, time was wasted informing everyone of this, so...

No kidding, for over 5 years prior to Long Beach ARMA, some folks thought
Peter and I were the SAME PERSON posing as one another to argue with
ourselves! =)
