Fine. I’ll do the Twitter thing.

I have to admit, I really don’t quite get Twitter. 

My first experience with it probably wasn’t the best one.

It was with Twinkle on my iPhone, which – if you don’t know – will not only show you the people you’re following, but will also show you tweets from people who are around you.  I live in downtown Seattle – the tweets I was seeing weren’t exactly what I would call… “interesting.”  It was like a Seinfeld episode, but with younger people and more swearing - lots of teenagers with lots to say, but with nothing to talk about. :)

But, I’m willing to give this whole Twitter thing a shot, in the context of a work-related experiment.  I’m not good at blogging very frequently, as you may have noticed.  I usually have something to say, but not something substantial enough to warrant a whole blog post.  Maybe Twitter’s “Micro-blogging” concept is the right thing for me to do.  We’ll see, I guess.

So, if you’re up for experimenting with me:

I use the Twitter thing at times.  Not for anything product of course...  Is anybody really listening/reading/caring what I am thinking or doing in that short span of time.  If so I guess we are all celebrities now.   LOL
