Okay, all of you with that desire to remain continuously connected – You, yes you, need to get on the Twitter bandwagon. It is a blast. I love getting messages from friends and people I admire all over the country. They put silly things in like what they are doing or thinking and we all get to see it. You don’t have to have the messages sent to your phone, you can have them pop up on your desktop while you work. It is like IM but a whole lot more mobile. Get on the Twitter website, (click here) set up an account, (follow the instructions and you will be fine) and get tweeting!
I have downloaded Twhirl as a desktop widget to download the tweets I get and send the ones I type. It runs in the background alerting me when I get a new message from someone I follow, so I don’t have to leave my browser open to twitter the whole time. Here is the catch though, there are only one or two people doing this that I have a close connection to… I would love you to get on so we can build our community together and enjoy seeing what everyone is doing at any given time! (you shy people control how much info you send out by the way…)
It is simple – throughout the day just enter in less than 150 characters (yes that includes spaces) the answer to this question, “what are you doing?” COME ON join in I am dying to know! When you sign up tweet me, or put your twitter address in the comments section so we all know you are on!
