    Great article John.

    I had a problem going through all of the sites and trying to find the quotes that were under 140 characters, it took so long, so I put a few thousand of them together and made a site at http://famousquotesfortwitter.com if anyone is interested.

    I also found people like jokes, so i got a few thousand of them also.

    Have a great tweetin' day,
    Tate Burns

    Awesome list, I quite enjoy the stupid tweets that get people fired. Is that quite macabre?

    I had no idea the "pig to sing" quote was Heinlein. Okay, so he did get something right.

    (Yes, I know, he got a great many things right, but I wish LeGuin had been the SF writer to found a religion.)

    Fascinating list, however!

    The problem I have with quotes is how can anyone possibly know for certain who said something first? Maybe I look at it all wrong? Maybe it's not about who said it first, maybe the trick is being the first person to be recognized for saying it. I'm just always worried I'll quote someone and then find out later that someone else should have gotten the credit.

    Cool lens Fluffy! ~ I just tweeted you when I saw this. I follow you on one of my lenses that I was just updating, trying to keep my bottom lens in the 2nd tier. I think I got it.

    Nice, I love great quotes. I use a fair share of them in my twits, although some of them are by the infamous me. Check out @BFuniv and see if it tweets your fancy.
