The following is reposted from “freshly baked.” Daria and I thought our Boutique Cafe readers would be interested in this insightful article on Twitter, which I read in a recent Time magazine.

If it weren’t for gym magazines I may never know what’s going on in the world. From the latest detox diets to Fall’s must-have accessories, the gym is a plethora of useful information. But seriously, I do get the chance to read some really interesting articles when I’m lucky enough to grab a Time or Newsweek from the stand, and today is the perfect example.

In a recent issue of Time magazine I found an article all about Twitter titled “How Twitter Will Change the Way We Live.” Now, you don’t have to extol the virtues of the latest 140-character communication craze to me—I’m already a big fan. But this article pointed out a few things I didn’t know, a few things I hadn’t thought about, and a few possibilities for the future that make you stop and think.

New to Twitter? Seasoned pro? No matter where you stand when it comes to tweets, DMs, @ replies and followers, you’ll want to read “How Twitter Will Change the Way We Live” in its entirety. It may just change the way you think. And yes, it’s a wonderful, wonderful web.

Since announcing that we’re Giving Away two Poken as part of our Ultimate Blog Party, I have received alot of questions. “What are Poken?” “How do they work?” “How much do they cost?” “Where can I get one?”

This fun video shares all that information and walks you through the easy steps to “rock” your Poken experience. You can be totally cool and order a Poken from www.doyoupoken.com OR you can email me at daria@boutiquecafe and I can hook you up with some of my own sweet Poken for sale.

However you snag your Poken, be sure to bring it along the next time we meet up! – Daria
