The difference social-ity really makes

I'm writing an article, usually a very solitary job and not my favourite thing, even though I'm a writer.

But this one's different.

This is a piece for February's Idealog Magazine about social networking, and I'm getting all Meta.

One of the features is a top 10 list of things you need to know about social networking. I could figure it out myself, or I could ask the community.

So I did! I just Twittered.

This makes the whole process much more interesting, much more like a conversation - which, ironically, is what I've always been striving toward in my writing.

I look forward to seeing what the community comes up with!
