Great job on this post. I just wanted to stop by and say this was inspiring. I'm looking into Twitter. Thanks for the advice.

Please hurry up and roll our UK coverage.
Thank you!
Good Tips
I don't think so if my neighbor on Twitter, haha...
Umm, Wow no one thought to
Umm, Wow no one thought to just go out and talk to your neighbor? I mean what ever happened to real live communication. Have we all gotten so use to using a computer that you can't even face the person that lives next door?
Don't get me wrong I like sites like twitter and facebook, BECAUSE I can stay in touch with people that I don't have the chance to see every day. Like my friends in India or Paris. But the guy that lives down the street? What is wrong with a good handshake?
We, as a society are so indivduated now, I'm not all that crazy with making it more so.
Umm, Wow no one thought to...
I don't see Twellow as a means to distance ourselves further but more as a tool to connect with those locally. By doing so, and becoming aware of others that have similar interests and/or opinions it would bring communities closer and in a sense, "meeting your neighbors".
If you were exchanging tweets about a particular concern in your community be-it crime or schools,you may feel inclined to pay particular attention to something that was discussed. Perhaps knowing you are surrounded by fellow "Tweaple" (other Twitters) this may further incline you to wave hello to a neighbor watering their lawn or walking their dog. You don't necessarily have to know where they live as the beauty of it all is that you will just assume whomever you see in your community, could or may be, one of your "tweaple".

Umm, wow no one thought of being an A-hole either
Hey douche, It's about Web 2.0 and connecting. You are missing the point. I would not want to shake hands with the likes of you.
Good day sir!
RE: Umm, Wow no one thought to
We're not discouraging in-person socializing, but it might be hard to walk around your entire city going door-to-door to find out if someone is on Twitter. It could be done I suppose, but we just thought it would be easier this way. You can find Twittering neighbors with TwellowHood, but you can also find people on the other side of town, or across the state our country.
In fact, finding Twitterers in your own town can lead to meeting them in person and a fair amount of handshaking.
Like it
will it extend to areas outside of the US?
RE: Like it
Yep, it will extend to other countries eventually. I can't say when at this point, but they're working on it.
So good tips, marked!

Twitterhood north of the border
It looks like a great feature... I was pretty excited...
But one of the real strengths of twitter is that we can communicate with people SANS borders. Coupled with the fact that there are plenty of WPN readers up here in Canada, it's pretty disappointing that you stopped at the hoods within the states!
Here's hoping that you throw your poor cousins north of the border a bone soon...
RE: Michael Valiant
As mentioned in the article, the plan is for it to expand into more countries.
Won't you be my neighbor
I cracked up when I saw your head on Mr. Rogers in the email. Fantastic.
RE: Won't you be my neighbor
Yes, it was quite an artistic accomplishment :)
Yep, i dig it. Thanxs Chris
Yep, i dig it. Thanxs Chris for reminding me about it again. I had heard about it, then lost track of it.
I found and followed a few local Twitterers. If you live in or near MS, follow me at link below. Thank you. Missy.

RE: Yep, i dig it. Thanks Chris
Well, Twellow's been around for a while, but Twellowhood is brand new. Glad you like it though.
I tawt I Taw A Puttycat
What's with you guys. ICQ, MSN, LinkedIn, Facebook, Digg, Twitter and so on... where does it stop?
What about having a real life for a change. All these social media sites are becoming peoples main way to communicate.
It's great to be able to find friends, but why don't you just make a big "yellow Pages" for all to look through?
Just my 25 cents worth.
RE: I tawt I Taw A Puttycat
I would have to assume that the growing number of people using social media to communicate illustrates the reality of it. The nice part about TwellowHood is that you can find others nearby you and actually meet them in "real" life if you share common interests. It is much easier to do when you know they live in your town.
Outstanding!
Twellowhood is AWESOME-O-MATIC!
