Notice anything different with this site? I got rid of Tweet Back. Here is my post I originally wrote about it, Tweet Backs. I thought it was a good idea to add it. That post has several Tweet Backs, which you can no longer see. I was looking for something new for the site, it seemed like a cutting edge kind of gizmo, and that’s all it turned out to be. A Twitter gizmo.

Value for my visitors? None. It added extra javascript to load, extra delay in page load, little to none participation, and the list goes on. So farwell for now, Tweet Back has been removed from this site.
