Mainstream media news seems to be all about two things these days. One: Print media’s dying. Two: Twitter!!!
LA Times published a buncha tweety articles today — and quite a few others did too. What these articles don’t cover, however, is how tweeting helps get the one thing I tweet most frequently about: Good food.
Some examples:
>> At Tender Greens tonight, you can get peach cobbler for $4.
>> Locali’s serving veg chili and cabbage soups.
>> Kogi BBQ’s at SMC right now — and I might bike over soon for kimchi quesadillas.
>> Whole Foods wants me to drop by for some new fair trade wines.
Haven’t you often wished for a constant, up to date stream of eco dining dealios in your ‘hood interrupting you at work? Start tweeting — and follow me. BTW — I just realized I joined Twitter on March 15, 2007. Has it really been 2 years? My twitterversary’s coming up!
Also: Jon Stewart shakes his fist at Twitter. Perhaps relatedly, his embed code isn’t quite working right — I don’t know why the header ad thing’s skewed off to the right –

It’s true! I tweet a lot about what restaurant I’m going to, what I got, and what I’m making for lunch or dinner. What can I say? I’m a foodie.
Tender Greens, Locali and Kogi BBQ are all awesome. I hit up Kogi right before they closed on Friday night and got to nosh on a tofu breakfast burrito on my walk to the subway. Mmmm… I’ve had their tacos several times but it was my first burrito. Their food is so flavorful and just spicy enough (although I love things hot, I’ve never felt the need to douse their food in hot sauce).
