Yesterday was exciting :D TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington (@arrington) retweeted my blog post “How silly for a tech magazine editor to underestimate a blogger.” That led to a string of retweets, which led to more than a thousand views in an instant. Good thing I am on cloud hosting…

But the best part: I was honored and humbled when @arrington started to follow me on Twitter! Unbelievable! @Scobleizer also started to follow me, putting me in his Twitter list of “Tech Pundits”! @Scobleizer/tech-pundits

Feel free to friend me or follow me @Robin_Kim.
