I found a great tool via the Twitter universe (twitterverse?) called TweetStats that allows me to look athow I'm using Twitter – which is a lot, these days.
What's on my mind? Here's a cloud I put together using Wordle.

(If you're not familiar with the micro-blog tool Twitter, check out this overview on 170 Spoons!)
And TweetStats shows me when & how I'm twittering. .

As you can see, my usage has increased dramatically in the last six months. That's when the Aha! moment happened for me and twitter became a platform – not just a status indicator.

Another interesting trend is that I'm using Twitter consistently every day. I think that indicates that I've crossed the threshold from toy to tool. I'm slightly more communicative on Tuesdays, but… who isn't?
I'm also seeing that I'm sending tweets and replies in the early morning, generally before the rush of the day. That's not surprising, because those are the few minutes when I can generally get a few feeds read and catch up on what everyone is up to.
One graph that I'm not posting for privacy is the number of @ replies I'm sending. Replies (either initiated by me or in response to others) represent 18% of my total tweets.
I'd love to have a look at your TweetStats, so link 'em in the comments!
And if we're not connected on Twitter, send a message @kevindonahue!
