Okay okay, so I’m a little obsessed with social networking sites. Just tonight I joined Pownce. I couldn’t tell you yet what it does, but I’m there. I think I can share more stuff there.
I joined Twitter a while back (like, in November), but I had no idea what to do with it. So I didn’t use it at all.
Within the last couple of days, two people (whom I know) have started to follow me on Twitter, so I figured i had better figure out what this is about and use it.
I’m starting to get it. It’s like a teeny tiny blog. You write 140 character updates about what you are doing. Some have compared it to the CB, which is an analogy I love. I remember when that was all the rage in the 1970s. When I was about eight years old, my family took the all American vacation, driving across country in our van. My dad got a CB for the trip. We all created handles. I think mine was “Pooh Bear,” being that I was obsessed with Winnie the Pooh.
I like the CB analogy, but I think that Twittering is more artful, more akin to haiku.
Now you just need to sign up with Jaiku to complete your set. Not to mention then put them on FriendFeed to aggregate. 😉
Like your site, btw. Subscribed! 🙂
