[...] But since the start, for those of us who’ve been around Twitter for a while, and those who’ve built businesses on and around the simplicity of 140 characters, it’s a time to cheer on the evolution and success of a service that has changed the way we communicate, changed lives and brought so many of us together.

I re-read your Village post a little while ago when @armano did his fund-raising thing for #daniela on twitter recently. Reminded me so much of Ashleigh’s death and the coming together of our twittervillage. I don’t know so much any more that we’re a village – perhaps more of a major metropolis now, with neighborhoods.

How big it has grown.

And yeah, the phone is off the hook.

As you have articulated so well, Twitter is the village we need to raise our children, care for those in need, celebrate our accomplishments and those of our friends, ask for help of every kind. It has become this amazing village because of people like you who are not afraid to open their hearts, their lives and their minds to whoever happens by. Thank you for having the vision to see the limitless possibilities of the connections that a few simple 140 character phrases can create.

What began as a novelty for me and I am sure many others, has become an important way that I am able to connect with other people. I love the ability it gives to me to connect with people from anywhere I chose to venture. And, I also love being able to be part of helping others in ways I never imagined possible. And the things I have learned from so many wise and brilliant people who populate the twitterverse amazes me every day.

Thanks for including me in your village,
uberbabyboomer

Yes, twitter certainly does become like a family… you can feel more love each and every day… which makes it SO HARD to actually log off!

Laura – Thank you for explaining Twitter to the word in terms anyone can understand it…and keep pushing the boundaries of how such a simple thing can be so profound in the way it connects us all.

We have only begun to explore the cultural, organizational, and interpersonal ramifications of this new way of communicating and the world (and a lot of businesses!) need you to help navigate what this all means.

Wishing you much success in 2009 as you continue to explore. And thank you.
