When Bryan and I first went to a “tweetup” last summer, I pretty much thought we had crossed the line into complete geekery.  I kept trying to explain it

I would have never thought, then, that by now we would have shared meals together, or that I would have gotten so much good advice on topics ranging from how best to communicate through social media to how best to sit whilst appearing on TV.  I have gained much from knowing these people.

But perhaps the best part of the process for me has been realizing that while we may heartily agree on the best movie we saw last year, we don’t always agree on everything else. It has turned out to be a new way for me to see the personal side of whatever the topic of the day is – to understand the ‘other’ side.  To give a little more room in my heart.

We couldn’t agree more.
