We have a lot of conversations on Planet Money — on the podcast, over e-mail, by phone, out in the streets and in our studios. And, of course, we yak a lot on Twitter.

People who follow our feed send us links and questions and general good humor. It's a fun crowd, and if you're not already part of it, we'd like you to pedal over. Hey, it's free! (For those of you who are new to Twitter, you might find it helpful to think of it as part cocktail party, part microblog.)

Several Twitter folks have expressed an interest in meeting in each other, which for now means signing up for each other's updates. We invite you to post your Twitter names in the comments and to follow the people you see posting there. If you like, add a sentence or two introducing yourself. Let's see where we can take this.
