I'm embarrassed to be sharing these before photos. The only reason I'm doing it is because I can post an after photo.

A couple of weeks ago, I changed my Twitter name. When I signed up three years ago, Twitter was just another random website and random offering - no one knowing how big it would really become.

The founder of MyJotJournal.com realized that while one status update on Facebook might not mean much, collectively the pictures and the updates mean a whole lot.
