A short bit ago, I received the typical twitter email announcing that someone had followed me.  It was quite strange as you can see…

Fortunately, Someone I work with, @paulknipe, translated this for me:

“Have you heard the news that I have a Twitter page? I highly encourage you to follow me right away. Click the follow button. It doesn’t cost anything.”

Thanks Paul, I think you are right on!  (But how would I know, I imagine I’m a little out of touch…)
