Twitterpated
I joined Twitter ages ago, but it seemed like yet another silly distraction. Well, it IS another silly distraction, but until recently, I couldn’t see the use in actively participating. That is, until my trip to NYC last month. I found out that my friend Sooz and I had both been in NYC at the same time. She said, "I twittered it!" The part that turned me off was having my phone beep all the time. Turns out you can receive twitters any way you want them: online, on IM, in email, or on your cell phone. It was just catching on while I was in Boston, but only my techiest friends were signing up (me included, of course). Those who headed out to SXSW of course got hooked. Given my daily life, I never did. Lately, my techier friends in Raleigh have been signing up, and since I’d had that missed connection with Sooz, I’ve jumped on board. You’ll see my twitters in the right sidebar here and on my Twitter page. I’ll stay public as long as I can’t see any good reason not to.
