Design Info is now Tweeting
Design Info is now being fed to Twitter
@designinform
is the twitter address.
I am still learning about how to set up Twitter for a web site. Ironically, Tumblr, which I use for the Design Info blog is considered a competitor to Twitter. But I don’t see the similarity in how I use one or the other and how limited Twitter is.
Twitter, for me, is a short burst of info.
Well, I am sure some geekier person could set me strait if I am wrong.
The way I see Twitter working for Design Info is as an alert to new postings and a quick read of the post to save time.

Massive world record domino stunt in the Netherlands themed on different parts of the world with America the theme this year. Fire, air, water, bears jump out of domino water, information graphic on the collapse of the market made of dominos, just over the top. Dutch narration is fun to hear too. And this video is just the first 10 minutes of it! More sections here.

Texas Size Garbage Patch Update
“Ms. Monteleone, a volunteer crew member on Mr. Moore’s ship, kept hoping she would see at least one sample taken from the Pacific garbage patch without any trash in it. “Just one area — just one,” she said. “That’s all I wanted to see. But everywhere had plastic.”
Sony SLR systems
Looks like the Sony full frame SLRs are catching on with pros who worked with medium format digital backs in the past.
