Nothing beats immersion for a good introduction

I've been singing the praises of Twitter for months now, but it took Ilise one conference trip where Twitter was on the menu for her to finally see its power.

For those of you with short memories, she's been up at Bizjam in Seattle this week. All good, but I had to laugh at the email I got today, saying Aliza Sherman (a very plugged-in lady currently residing in Alaska) had been Twittering Ilise's session and could I please blog about it.

Emailing about blogging about Twittering. Sometimes, I just love the time I'm alive in.

(It's old news now, but you can check out @alizasherman's old tweets, or, for you supernerds, check out the Bizjam hashtag.)

UPDATE 7/11: Color me Behind the Times; didn't even know about this tweet tracker.
