For me, there are two different things that make Sherlock Sherlock. One is, you know, within the books: obviously he's a genius with an attention to detail, his ravenous hunger for all aspects of knowledge that might feed into his work.

And he’s on twitter, tweeting about local startups, global technology news, and of course, his own clients. I follow him on twitter.
