What a great post. I really love the personality and values of Zappos. Its an awesome company…

Their CEO twitters and blogs like its a religion… I like how this article talks about not only the business reasons, but how it makes him a happier person.

The summary is here… .but this one is worth the click-thru!

Transparency & Values: Twitter constantly reminds me of who I want to be, and what I want Zappos to stand for
Reframing Reality: Twitter encourages me to search for ways to view reality in a funnier and/or more positive way
Helping Others: Twitter makes me think about how to make a positive impact on other people’s lives
Gratitude: Twitter helps me notice and appreciate the little things in life

My buddy Hegarty started a great site, Hollrr, which is about really cool startups, and it’s worth following because he’s got neat plans for it’s future. Here, he’s passing along a link to a great article written by the Zappos CEO about Twitter.
