Twitter Consciousness vs. Spectacular Sunrise

tweet-consciousnessI was wondering what to write. I’ve been giving more and more attention to Twitter these days, so I thought maybe I would write something about twitter. My first thought was, “What are people tweeting this morning?”

So, I went over to TweetCloud to get a visual of this morning’s twitter consciousness. As you can see from the tweet cloud, what’s on tweeter minds is Project Natal (gaming not babies), Good Sex (always a hot topic), the lost Air France flight (tragedy) and Google Wave (techvolution).

Toys, sex, tragedy and technology. As I was pondering this collective consciousness and what to say about it, I noticed a spectacular sunrise happening outside (Walnut Creek California). Glorious pink clouds moving through the sky with the sun just starting to break over the mountains.

By the time I was able to get to the car and grab the cameras, the sunrise was further along than I would have liked, but here it is.

And now, I must take my leave as I have to drive to Pleasanton CA for a 7:45am appointment. But, let me just say – the sunrise will have more influence over my day than the twitter collective.
