Shawn’s most excellent Twittering
I’ve been receiving so many useful links and comments via Twitter from Shawn Callahan at Anecdote that I thought better put some of ‘em up here, both to share them, and as somewhere to record them before they scroll off the Twitter list!
Most are around themes on narrative-knowledge and business-storytelling: I’ve expanded the links and added a few comments in [..] where appropriate.
