Using Twitter? Friend me up!
Apparently, Twitter is really starting to take off. I’ve been on it for about 6 months now, yapping away in to the twitter void. It’s got a tech heavy following, but over the past month or so, Twitter has really started to take off with the non-tech folks. Twitter can be many different things to many different people, which is why it’s so cool. I use Twitter in a few different ways:
- Throw-away blogging, it’s for the kind of things you don’t want laying around on your blog, archived for posterity sake, and picking up negative comments years later (example)
- It’s the best way to have any question imaginable answered promptly
- Kinda like a passive IM chat room or IRC channel, where you get to pick who’s messages you get to listen in on
Twitter is pretty bad ass and I just thought I’d put a post out there (mostly for the benefit of you rss headz). Friend me up, if you’re a twitterer.
I find it like walking a very crowded street fair. You get that shout out from a friend, then they are gone. You hear interesting conversations along the way. And occasionally someone pops up that you want to ignore.
