Would someone like to put out a Hint of the Day on this list? I’d appreciate it. Could include changes and improvements too. I know it would be some work, and wold require tracking old hints, but they could be accumulated in a web page for our reading.
Or maybe the others on the list would hate it.

why not tweet it? That way it’s discoverable by many more people, will help promote Textmate, and won’t take over this list
#textmate or something. Create a twitter persona @TextMatesGreat or something for us to follow?
The #tag works well for #Rstats

Second that.

If you go for tweets, please announce that on the list. I'm not a great fan of tweets, but a daily hint sounds interesting.

For me, the problem with tweets is they're too short to provide anything useful, at l least in terms of TextMate tips Likewise the mailing list isn't really an appropriate arena for them.
New TM users are very unlikely to search the mailing list archive to find tips, so it would only be helping the userbase who were subscribed at the time of posting
I'd much rather see a wiki, which everyone can contribute to, and develop it into a good TM guide. Right now the docs are a little outdated and ambiguous, with many articles referencing TextMate 1 (but not always making this clear)

we could make some kind of wiki or repository for TextMate tips and a bot for twitter that tweets them once in a while. That way everyone could look at the whole list, contribute and gets informed about new or random ones.

Hmm, some real repository sounds interesting. That way one could have some sort of quality ensurance; down side: one has to do it.
and a bot for twitter that tweets them once in a while.
Make that a mailbot and a (read-only, perhaps) mailing list. Twitter is dull and far to small a canal.
That way everyone could look at the whole list, contribute and gets informed about new or random ones.
I second that part.
