BusinessCasualBlog's Top 18 Shareable Links On Twitter - August 6 2010

Yup, I'm on Twitter pretty much everyday.  I'm pretty happy with the quality of content I'm getting through Twitter these days.  Perhaps this isn't so surprising since I've been pretty selective lately about the people I add to my Follow list.  I've also been pretty diligent about culling my Follow list fairly regularly to take out spammers, self-serving posters and others whose activity have dropped off.  

Below is a snapshot over the past week of the top retweetable bits of info I've received from various sources and distributed via Twitter.  You don't have to click on every single link.  But at least read through the descriptions below.  Then, tell me if you didn't find at least one thing that you didn't find interesting.  

I don't take credit for the great information below, by the way.  For that, I have to thank all the cool people I follow on Twitter.  Will you join me?
