Let's use something other than a hit or two on the spacebar. Even if that doesn't interest you, there are other reasons to look into some of the special space characters available.

I took a long break and now I'm tweeting some again but I'm retiring @tweebleone so if you followed me there, try my new handle (the official About.com account) @AboutDesktopPub where I just started some light tweeting over the weekend.
