Daily Dose of Newton ¬

2007-12-21

Thomas Brand is at it again! This time he’s announced NewtonTips, a feed of Newton-related tips powered by Twitter. Complete with Mac OS X Dashboard Widget and all.

Now I have to admit, while I’m happy to see more Newton content flowing, I was quite surprised by its delivery: Twitter. I use it every day, I was on the fence about initially using it, and plenty of people use it as a news delivery medium, but I hadn’t thought of using it as your sole publishing platform. You essentially get free hosting & delivery of a few sentences worth of content via RSS and Twitter (so potentially web, AIM/Gmail instant messaging services, mobile SMS, and email).

More props to Thomas!

(And, yes, the title of this post is a bit of a shout-out to Dan Padilla’s now-silent Newton Dose blog.)
