I have been very fortunate in the last week to have either written, or been featured on a couple blogs. I was interviewed by Kyle Steed on his site. Kyle is a great guy and designer that I have had the chance to get to know over the last month or two. I also wrote my first guest post for We Are Just Creative a great site that is run by Graham Smith from I am Just Creative and Soul Tweet.

What I love about this is I met both guys by interacting on twitter. Through this I realized the power of building a community of designers that we can interact with for feedback on designs, help with a snippet of code or when we are stuck on a design.

There are a lot of awesome people that I have met through twitter, and I am getting some awesome opportunities to collaborate, and have also learned quite a bit in the last few months simply by interacting. We can also help draw attention to one another’s design and writing abilities. There are a lot of great blogs that don’t get enough good attention as they should, and they would be great contributions to those who read them, so using twitter we can help let other people know about good reads, and great, inspiring design work. Chuck Westbrook has a project to help this very concept. I would challenge all of us to contribute to building a design community by interacting on one anothers blogs… Think of the benefits.

Thanks to everyone who I have had the chance to interact with and meet, I really appreciate the support and interaction.
