One Book to Rule Them All, One Twitter to Bind Them

Ok, so this post has nothing to do with Lord of the Rings, that title was just too good of an opportunity to pass up. What it's really about is that Neil Gaiman's American Gods has been chosen as the focus of One Book, One Twitter. The idea of Jeff Howe, writer of Wired magazine explains exactly what this is:

What if everyone on Twitter read the same book at the same time and we formed one massive, international book club? ...The point of this (to the extent it has a point beyond good fun with a good book) is to create community across geographical, cultural, ethnic, economic and social boundaries.

To view the twitter coversation check out posts tagged with the hashtag #1b1t or follow Howe @crowdsourcing for updates including a promised schedule for everyone participating in the next few weeks. And if you have a twitter account and aren't following Neil Gaiman, well, you really should be.
