Listorious Interview

How do you use Twitter in your professional life?

I use it to promote my blog, but honestly, that's secondary to using it to have fun and be a smartass.

Phil Plait in response to Listorious

Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?

If there's someone out there not following me now, they will eventually when my plans for world domination come to fruition. Mwuhahaha.

What's your best tweet?

From #robotpickuplines: Your lips say 0 but your eyes say 1.

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

I unfollow people when their tweets are too removed from what I like to read. I suspect that's true for everyone!
