What twitter has taught me.(editor's note)
Regular readers of this column know I'm rarely at a loss for words here. But the available time in a 24-hour-day to think analytically, reflect widely and deeply, and create content--given everything else we do now--is evaporating. I want to more efficiently read, tweet, create, edit, reflect and share, so I'm taking a page from the social networks. Here's what they've taught me so far:

* Be brief, organized, include lots of images and links, and remember that everything, regardless of length, benefits from a narrative arch with a beginning, middle and end. (Creating magazines and interactive content, analyzing film and literature, and writing fiction and poetry actually taught me this long ago--but that's another story.)

* Remain hyper-aware, live in the moment, act fast and start composing in your head before your fingers hit the keyboard.
