Primal/Paleo Twitter Community

I'm going to start using the #Primal tag on all my Twitter posts about what I am eating. See Mark Sissons' post, for the background.

For those not familiar with Twitter, imagine having a blog where all your posts have to be 140 characters or less. Just like you can subscribe to blogs with an RSS reader, if you have a Twitter account you can follow other Twitter users and have see all their mini-posts ('Tweets') on your home page. The difference is, with Twitter, everyone is a blogger if they want to be...

The # system is just a way of tagging your Tweets. If everyone starts tagging their tweets about Primal/Paleo eating then it allows two things:

1. You can find other like-minded Twitterers by searching all tweets for the tag
2. We have a great way to collect together all the fantastic meal and restaurant recommendations and suggestions that come from the community
   

Tagging a Tweet is as simple as including #Primal at the start of the Tweet. It's a shame you lose 7 of those valuable characters, but it's a small price to pay!

So get Twittering by signing up here... and why not start by following Mark and me!
