I believe Twitter is a tool. We receive and share information in a fast, short and efficient way. I also believe finding good Twitters is the most important part!

When finding interesting tweets, I sometimes check what people I follow, are following themselves. I’m sure you’ve tried this at some point and it’s kind of a hard job right? First check the list of people you follow and click on each of them to see who they’re following… then you go back, check again etc. Boring.

However, we don’t have to do that anymore. TwtRoulette, designed by Shervin Pishevar allows you to see what other people see when they log into their Twitter account. Nice and easy and great tool to optimize you own Twitter account.
Maybe you’re wondering… what If I don’t want to share my twitter? Don’t worry, you have to add yourself to the directory voluntarily.

Lucky me, I wanted to check Brad Feld’s twitter account and voilà:

Quite an open discussion right?
Can we really consider iPads or tablets a full substitute of a laptop? Obviously not now.
Well for those who only check the email, read the newspaper online and follow their social networks, it definitely is!
But for those using applications (advance applications) is not really a substitute… for now.
Programming and anything related to introducing data by typing is not really made for tablets/iPads.
However, video and image editing is perfect! I’d love to work directly with my hands in photoshop instead of using the mouse!
Even Microsoft Office could be adjusted to work in a tablet. Could you imagine preparing a Power Point presentation with your hands? I get goosebumps!
Actually, whenever I see myself using an iPad I see “the future me”. Do you remember that scene in Minority Report where Tom Cruise is able to manage files and data in an interactive digital interface?

I truly believe we’ll get to that point and iPad are the beginning. But well, let’s continue with the present!
So, are iPads/tablets the future laptops?? I think they will be for a domestic use only. I’m in love with MacBook Pro but ey!, give me an iPad with Lighroom, Filezilla, Photoshop, VLC and NetNewsWire and my laptop will end up old and alone!
