Tweets of the Week IX

What’s in a name? That which we call a Tweet, by any other name would smell as sweet.

TONIGHT: Wal-Mart joins the buy-local movement, courts all of us “scuppies” who ritually shop at Whole Foods. A mom presents her son with his first paradox: you cannot finish the Neverending Story. Armed with a new strategy, a woman takes her in-laws to task on global warming…though we can’t help with the dinosaurs or moon-landing conspiracy. JustMeans joins the Twitter conversation, just as the Fail Whale goes commercial and others hedge their bets with identi.ca. Celebrate the 4th of July with eco-friendly explosives. And…

Max Gladwell goes mainstream on TreeHugger with a how-to screencast about the Twitter #greenstream. Follow at your own risk.

Thanks for mentioning the JustMeans tweets! We are learning as we go, but you will see much more Twitter activity from us (if our impatience can survive the fail whale…).
