I contemplate a lot of things before jumping in. Contrary to the perceptions and stereotypes of entrepreneurs, I’m not all that impulsive.

I’ve thought about Twitter for a while and honestly can’t decide if it’s going to be a gargantuan time drain or if it’s going to be a way to communicate effectively. When I can’t figure something out, I run an experiment. So that’s how I’m going to treat Twitter for now. Unlike blogging, to which I am 100% committed, please treat my current Twitter status as experimental. You’ll be the first to know when my status changes.

So if you’re interested in micro updates on what’s going on at blist, in the Seattle tech sector or with Kevin Merritt, follow me on Twitter. The first person to follow me on Twitter gets a free blist t-shirt. (Sorry but blist employees and members of my family may follow me, but you are ineligible for the free shirt). For those who don’t know, we hardly ever give away our t-shirts – we like them being scarce and we’ve heard great stories of people asking “where did you get that blist t-shirt?”

You might wonder whom I’ve followed on Twitter so far. Well, I won’t give you the full scoop, but I will share that the first person I followed is Loic le Meur, the CEO of Seesmic.
