Join the Pulse

Pulse is not only an excellent live set by Pink Floyd, it's also a good name for the idea that the guys behind pulse of open source came up with. Actually I don't know if it's their idea, but it's pretty cool. Twitter is to blogs what IM is to email, or so they say (I guess).

Pulse of Open Source is sort of like Planet, but for twitter. One random day Christer Edwards said something along the lines of "we should organize all Ubuntu people on twitter and put that to good use." Poor Christer made the mistake of having a great open ended idea, so I convinced him to implement it. :)

Pulse of Ubuntu is a twitter account that follows people around from the Ubuntu community. As you can see, there's already a good list of people being followed. So if you use twitter and want to check out what people are doing, then follow @pulseofubuntu. If you use twitter and want to microblog about Ubuntu-stuff, then let us know and you can pulse with us. Send spam to jorge (at) ubuntu dot com and christer.edwards (at) ubuntu dot com. EDIT: Don't forget to tell us your twitterID.
