My Favorite Tweets of 2012

Posted on December 20, 2012

Twitter iconI use the “favorite” option in Twitter to save things I see on my commute that I want to read or research later, tweets that are inspiring, or tweets that I wish I could RT but can’t, due either to character or cussing restraints. Occasionally I scroll through them for a laugh or a thoughtful moment, and I thought you might enjoy them, too. Here are my favorite favorites from 2012:
