Alright, I’ve tried twitter once for a couple of days and I don’t see the point. I’m in the tech business and I just don’t get it. I suppose that if you’re a famous person and you want to connect with your fans on a regular basis, it’s a good idea but on the more pedestrian level that I operate on, it seems a shade much. I don’t have “fans”. Heck, my daughter doesn’t really think I’m cool anymore.
I tied my twitter account into my facebook account and I was updating my status like 20 times a day. I quit doing that as I noticed when other people did it I found it annoying so it seemed idiotic for me to bombard the world with my status updates. I find it hard to believe that people are at all interested in the everyday workings of my life anyways.
So, I don’t really know what to do with all of this. I still like facebook but I don’t update as often as I used to. My friends do comment on my updates and I have fun doing it but I can’t really imagine going much past that. One thing that seems kind of appealing would be to twitter in real-time as we go through the budget. I like that as an alternative to updating the blog all the time with endless budget updates. The only problem with that, of course, is that I need to pay attention while those meetings are going on!….:)
