The reflex reaction to being presented with good content is to share it. Generosity, mutuality and sharing are the engines of social media.
But yesterday an un-named Blonde colleague brought to our attention a good idea.
Our collective initial reaction was to spread the word. Tweet and retweet.
Then it dawned on us that this was actually a very, very good idea. An idea that we can adapt and apply to our own wicked ends. An idea whose potential would probably be spotted by others. And we’d hate to be beaten to it.
Too good to tweet in fact.
(Until later when we’ll obviously give credit where credit’s due).
Meanwhile we feel a bit like this.

Ever come across anything that was too good to tweet?

Yes, I have, but I couldn’t possibly mention it here.
