My twitter account is the story of A-san told in the form of a dialogue. Rules for replying and adding your own dialogue lines are below. Not sure how well it’s going to work but here goes.
気まぐれ会話のルール：
１）会話の続きは、「@kimchi314」の返事で行う。
２）会話の続き以外の返事はダメ。
３）返事は、日本語だけ。
４）話し手を明確にする。
例えば、「@kimchi314 A：ありがとう」
Update: I will retweet any interesting replies (with maybe a little embellishment). Eventually, I will follow good contributors. Use #kimagure for meta discussion about 気まぐれ会話
No related posts.
I like the idea, but how do people know if someone else they’re not following tweeted the continuation of the story already? Maybe making a hashtag could solve the issue, though.
Also, it looks like you’re not following anybody… maybe I’m a little confused about how you want to manage the thing
I can still see replies of people I’m not following.
but we won’t be able to see other people’s replies to you unless we are following them?
Isn’t that how twitter works?

That could be true, I’m still new to twitter. I can probably retweet any interesting replies, I think.
What if you added a # to your tweets, like #kimchi物語. then everyone can follow all the related posts!
Good idea, maybe put all meta discussion in a hash code.
Have replyers put “@XamuelA” in their reply (replace “XamuelA” with the Tae Kim username.. which, incidentally, doesn’t seem to be linked anywhere?!?! what is it?). Then to see replies, people can just do a search on that.
Thanks, I updated the rules with the user name.
Haha, for some reason the “fullwidth colon” character after ‘A’ or ‘B’ at twitter displays as an Arabic character here, both in chrome and firefox. Both browsers are set to a Japanese locale, the page encoding is correct, and I have plenty of Japanese fonts installed. If I cut and paste the text into another application, it becomes a proper colon. I have no idea why this is happening.
Interesting. Shows up fine here. I’m not changing it…
