Funny thing about blogs…I can’t keep them updated…but the damnest thing about Twitter…updates instantly and I don’t have to even leave the comfort of my messenger.
I use GoogleTalk…and thanks to that IM..I can post and send things instantly about what I’m doing, or more to the point…NOT DOING.
follow Take2_host1 at http://twitter.com
Now if you’re like I was and asking yourself…what is Twitter and what should I use it for anyway…then consider these few things:
1) Always wish you could network with a group of people and not really deal with them face to face?
2) Wanting to write down thoughts, ideas, or daily doo-dads, in 140 characters or less?
3) Ever say to yourself…I wish I had more friends that don’t really talk to me, but I can get updates on from time to time?
THEN TWITTER IS THE IDEAL BLOG/IM FOR YOU!
All kidding aside, it’s neat to see what others are doing in the world while you’re slaving away at work. It was very cool to see CC Chapman and others post about PODCAMPNY and watch others like BrittanyMason wish they were there with me!
I’m having alot of fun using twitter, but it can be extremely addictive and extremely time consuming when you miss posts. Thankfully you can always log into your personal space and view them all in one fail swoop.
Take2 Podcast has started doing more with Twitter and with the Podcamp coming to the Midwest, we’re extremely excited about networking with some of those we only see online or using Twitter!
Thanks to those that have included me in your Twitters…I look forward to getting to know you all, and to those that haven’t added me…someday you’ll want to! ;)
LATE,
Russ
