It's about real relationships. And most companies will never have real relationships via Twitter, Facebook, whatever. In fact, most situations on the Internet will never build a real relationship unless you do something about it. I think this will become more apparent 5 years from now (when it's too late!) when companies realize that the ROI in having a Twitter account is ridiculously low. I'd argue that most people on your Twitter feed would not go "out of their way" to help you as Seth Godin brilliantly puts it. Time to start build relationships the real way: by knowing people.

]]> Comment on The Return of the 800×600 Standard? by Eric http://esmoretti.com/blog/2009/03/02/the-return-of-the-800x600-standard/comment-page-1/#comment-88 Eric Sun, 08 Mar 2009 15:20:33 +0000 http://esmoretti.com/blog/?p=220#comment-88 I do agree, keeping a mobile style sheet is the best practice. Although I just wonder how long before mobile phones start reaching "desktop" resolution. Since my first mobile phone about six years ago to my current G1, the resolution has basically quadrupled. At 480x320 on the large end (for the US, some European/Asian phones are much greater), how long before we get to 800x600 or something close? When we start looking at resolutions that high are we wasting time developing for mobile users? Especially since the projected use of smart phones is supposed to sky rocket in the next decade.

After reading your article, I did a little research and found out that most Netbooks have resolutions of 1024×600 or 800×480 (http://tinyurl.com/b4n7kh is one article for example) and that most are 1024 in width. This happily means that we don't have to skew our width but that we have to definitely rethink the content above the fold for these viewers. Personally I feel that, unless you have a strongly European audience (where 10% of the population are Netbook users), that keeping the 600 height in mind when designing for the fold is fine for now. At least until Netbooks get a little more steam. As for the mobile, I think that using a seperate stylesheet is still the way to go. Great insight on this subject though!!

As soon as I want to monitor a certain trend/keyword, I can use that without the need of following those people. And now, most desktop twitter clients let you do that very effectively.
