Just a heads up that as of this week, the Get Elastic eCommerce Blog is changing its posting schedule from Monday-Friday to Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
We will no longer be posting the Friday Blogger’s Digest link list (so really, we’re only scaling back by one article per week). Instead I encourage you to follow me on Twitter @Roxyyo where I will be sharing my favorite links from around the Web all week long.
Just can’t get enough of Get Elastic? You can always check out previous posts by category (in the right sidebar) or our entire blog archive.

That’s too bad. I liked the link list and I just don’t have time to follow everyone on twitter.
yeah, me too. maybe you could include your tweets on this blog somehow? i think there are some widgets to do this.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes there is a way to post from Twitter to your blog, check out Twickie (thanks to Chris Pirillo)

You can also subscribe to my Twitter feed via RSS:

If you want to subscribe to other Ecommerce Gurus on Twitter just look for the little orange icon in your browser or in the sidebar of their twitter profile. I believe you must be logged into Twitter to see the icon.
That’s a real shame…
No offence to you, but I’m greatly interested in the digest links and not really into what twitters are doing, eating, watching or whatever non-ecommerce related stuff all day long.
Now I have to filter out the personal or unrelated twitters on a page which is really hard to read due to the personal picture with every tweet and max 140 characters long.
Also it’s quite anoying I can’t delete the already read twitters (or can I?) because it will take much more time now to filter out the good links that only have a very brief description and have links with only ‘tinyurl’ in it
And another thing I don’t like about twitter is the font size.. I have ‘text size: smaller’ in IE which makes the font almost unreadable because most usability gurus only look at the people that use text size larger/largest but they forget about the smaller text-sized visitors
@Boudewijn,
If you subscribe to @Roxyyo by RSS reader as outlined above, you will get MY links. I rarely tweet personal things. There were a couple random/personal comments from me this week but it’s mostly ecommerce/marketing related. You don’t have to subscribe to everybody.
Another cool thing about reading them in an RSS reader is you can enlarge the font size / formatting as you like it. You can also do that at the web browser level. If I find small text on a page and want it larger, I go “Command +” on the Mac or “Ctrl +” on PC.
