Introducing The Overflow

By David Ponce

Making OhGizmo! isn’t the easiest of jobs. Every day we have to comb through so much noise (blog posts, press releases, unsolicited phone calls) in a never ending quest to find you the few gems we end up writing about. Usually, we’ll bookmark a good number of products that we think are potential articles… and only end up writing about a few of them. The rest? Well, that’s The Overflow.

We figured that instead of simply never writing about these products and leave them confined to the places where we found them, we’d give at least some of them a chance to live on in our sidebar. We’ve decided to use Twitter to do this, because frankly it suddenly seems like the world is on Twitter. While we may occasionally write about something else, most of everything you see there are links to products we considered writing about, but didn’t.

So, go ahead, follow us on Twitter!. Or better yet come back every day to check out what’s new in the sidebar.

From Andrew: On a related note, I’ve also recently revived my long-dormant Twitter account, and if you’d like to follow my random, self-aggrandizing, often confusing, occasionally sarcastic updates, then check out my Twitter page as well.

    That's a GREAT idea! I often don't follow websites i subscribed to with google reader because their twitter feed is just the stories that i already read through google reader. Now if you post the overflow to twitter and is something that i haven't yet seen, love it! Subscribed! www.twitter.com/conedude13
  • Would rather see a Twitter stream of your actual stories. It would bring me to your site more often.
