12:20pm: Chad: So this is our first attempt to interview the Conservative Grassroots here on Wave then to post the archive on our blog and out to Twitter! Can you start with telling us a little bit about who you are and what has drawn you away from family, friends and the pursuit of Happiness to become a Conservative Grassroots Activist?
Read the rest at GrizzlyGoundswell.com Thanks to Chad and all the fine people at GizzlyGroundswell for all the amazing work they do to support the Conservative movement!12:32pm ChristinaKB: LOL! I first heard about Twitter from a writer-friend of mine named Phil. I guess you could say we worked together. I was a pr (hack) & he was an editor for a mag. His story was my first cover back in the olden days of the early ’90’s. Anyway, he told me about Twitter in August of ‘08. I checked it out and was immediately smitten.
The idea of microblogging in real time – sort like chatting, but not exactly, was intriguing. The election was in full swing & was apoplectic at the sorry state of affairs of the GOP, it paltry messaging, and the frankly, silly slate of candidates (sorry to be so harsh, but there you go). Here we have these ridiculous candidates Hillary? Biden? “U-bam-uh?” Edwards??? Really??? The GOP was, in a lot of ways, even weaker. Hmmmm… this is turning into a screed…
The point is that I very quickly found some of the smartest, kindest people through this cool, online Twitter-thing.
