Dear RIM. Would you develop a Twitter Application with a better memory handling? And it would be much better if it does not DRAIN my battery. Thank you and sincerely yours.I think that will do.

However, this 140 characters limitation is actually the biggest challenge to me. There are certainly informations and thoughts which I can share within 140 characters. But most of the time the brainstorm ended up with way more than the limitation. Even if I have 150-characters-message, it's still greater than 140 characters and I don't like to use the shrinkage tweet feature (if the application provide one). It, somehow, distracts my audiences from the key point of messages which I'm trying to deliver because they have to interpret my messages first. And I believe they will be annoyed due to this as much as I will be.
To this matter, blog is still a preferable tool to share your thoughts, opinion, and ideas to the world. Blog also provides flexibility in term of the depth of information to be shared. But still, it doesn't provide you with social-media accessibility as Twitter does. In this case, I have to be able to combine both advantages to gain bit detail coverage yet maintain social-media accessibility.
The idea is to write a blog post, covering the brainstorm in my mind, and push the blog post to Twitter with an URL to the original blog post. In this matter, a tweet shall act as a gateway to a blog post.
Posterous' autopost to Twitter gives me the ability to push my blog to Twitter. The advantages of this method are including but not limited to (1) an easy way to manage both streams (because I just need to manage my blog and let the autopost take care of the rest), (2) an easy access to promote my blog post to Twitter's wider audiences, (3) a possibility to merge blog audiences and Twitter audiences, provides you with even wider and vary audiences, and (4) focus to the content and deliver messages without any distortion and distraction.
This method, in my opinion, will benefit any person who try to promote his/her blog or even will benefit any marketing company to convey full messages to the world and get full coverage from wider audiences.

I just realize that Posterous provides a Retweet link underneath each post. This is just GREAT!

Twitter hashtags – adding the conference name as a hashtag on a tweet – aren’t an ideal solution to tracking a conferenceExcerpt from Mashable. Personally I have no comment on this comparison matter because I don't have Google Wave account. But, in my opinion, Twitter doesn't provide easy way to follow a conference chat for a limited group. I, most of the time, lost in world of tweets when try to connect all chat into single and complete chats.

As Twitter grows and the number of tweets each day continues to astound us, we’ve noticed an increasing amount of clutter in the public timeline, especially with trending topics. Trends began as a useful way to find out what’s going on but has grown less interesting due to the noisiness of the conversationExcerpt from Mashable.com. You got that right. It's useless to find a recent update using trending topics when you always ended up fighting our way just to find a relevant topic. Twitter should learn from Google to manage the spam.

So far, three uses have become most visible: 1) Lists as a way of organizing your followers, 2) Lists as a form of recommendation, and 3) Lists as a way of measuring influence.Excerpt from Mashable.com. This provides good elaboration on strategy to use Twitter Lists. Which one is yours?

How do you deliver your message to the world?
Email to Posterous blog --> autopost to WordPress blog --> autopost to Twitter --> autopost to Facebook.
As alternative: microblog directly to Twitter --> autopost to Facebook.
I just love blogging! Especially when you can use email for blogging.
