Excel Twitters 20090724 – Excel Theatre Blog

What did we learn in Twitter this week? Excel can improve your health, or make you feel like a time-poor hack. Good thing a sense of humour will help you get through the week, even if your 17-year-old self wouldn’t recognize you. And no, that tired and cranky tweeter wasn’t me!

Now remember, don’t let your kung-fu get rusty, and keep pimping that Excel shiz.
