    Twitter FTW!

    On Tuesday, a chap tweeted about needing a freelance JS developer urgently for a project. A mutual friend retweeted it and, when it thereby appeared in my twitter stream, I replied that I was available.

    Chap invited me to come in for a chat yesterday and ended up hiring me. I'm now on my first full day of a two monther in London: excellent rate, fun project, no agent required

    So if you thought Twitter was just about other people's lunch, you've been doing it wrong.

          They really didn't need to interview you. One look at your twitter feed would tell them you know more about this stuff than they'll learn in a lifetime!

          Congrats!
