A Thoughtful Twitter Use Manifesto

A way to use Twitter authentically

\’\’John Miles of Too Much White Space has inspired me to be a more conscious Tweeter with his manifesto on using Twitter in a thoughtful way.

He wrote:

  • I will thoughtfully compose all posts in a state of awareness and genuine goodwill for all beings.
  • I will not feel compelled to post, just to post. Periods of silence on Twitter are beautiful – enjoy them until the next idea organically surfaces.
  • I will only post thoughts to Twitter that have the potential to deeply enhance the well-being of others either by laughter, thoughtfulness or sparking of new and valuable ideas.
  • I will abstain from idle-chatter and meaningless posts that do not add value to the lives of others.
  • I will abstain from gossip, back-biting, rumor spreading and any posts that does not bring more love to the world.
  • I will always tell the truth to the best of my abilities on Twitter. Neither hiding nor embellishing anything.
