How about creating a twitter account (they are free :D) and using it to post quotes, snippets, texts, insights or any other wisecrack in less than 140 words?

Why would you do it?

  1. Since these insights are small ideas that you build on, you need to save them somewhere. I do maintain a notepad where I scribble nearly anything and everything, there are times when you want them to be digitized.
  2. They are too small and are in early stages of conception. Cant clutter blog with tons of those.
  3. Twitter allows retrival using numerous methods. It is available for the world to see and comment.
  4. I can use hashtags and Twitter Search to retrieve thoughts that get old.

All in all looks a good idea. Let me try it out and see. I created this twitter account tumblr account for the same.

Any thoughts anyone? How do you keep your ideas in context? How do you develop them further?
