It’s a good idea to host your best tweets in weekly basis. I’ll follow them from now on.
Have you just started doing from it from this week?
Thanks
R Jaini,
I’ve done them on irregular basis when I have time or when there was a particularly good week of links. Best way is to follow on Twitter though!

This is an excellent idea to collect your best tweets of the week and post them in the form of blog.I went through the links, I liked the one on content designing for mobile websites. I am a designer myself but till now, my work has been restricted to designing websites that are accessed through personal computers.
I was a little clueless about how to design it for mobile interface? I some times wonder, if the website I design for normal interfaces will be accessed as it is on mobile, will it automatically be re-sized, if I do not specify absolute values for css parameters?
