Bowing to Our Twitter Robot Overlords
I have an anti-robot stance on Twitter. By that, I mean to say that I don’t want to follow things that aren’t people (with all due respect to Bruce Sterling’s spimes). I just don’t need to add something automated into a place that’s inherently human. Or at least that was my stance.
Now, Tom Peters is evidently loosing a robot on Twitter, such that it will blurt out little Tom-isms. Hmm. I passed on the Seth Godin robot (wish to devil it was Seth for real), but the way Shelley Dolley put it has me thinking:
Tom’s not planning to jump on the micro-blogging bandwagon anytime soon (limit Tom to 140 characters? I don’t think so), so for now, this is the only way to get your Tom fix on Twitter.
So, hmmm. If it’s a little spurt of Tom Peters advice, and I like Tom (or Seth or Covey), maybe I should follow the robots?
Not sure. What say you?
