Why You Should Twitter
Posted by scottix in Technology on 08 12th, 2008| icon3No Comments »

People always ask me, "What is Twitter? I don’t understand". People go to Twitter.com and look at the public timeline. Once looking at it for a while, people question, "What is the point?" The public timeline is really not that easy to follow and not the main point of Twitter. Twitter is called a micro blogging website. It is like a blog but not. It is like SMS on hyperactive drugs.

Twitter can be used to tell all of your friends what you currently are doing. Imagine sitting down and adding all your friends to a text message and sending out a mass message. When all you have to do it sms a single number and everyone following gets the message.

It can also promote whatever you are doing. For example writing a blog or something that you want to make popular. It makes the public commercialization personal. There is someone behind the product that you get to share with. Ending with that note.

Problem is you need people to follow you. That is why I am asking you to follow me. All you have to do is click on this link , create an account if you need to. Then just click the follow button. That simple so go do it.

I have been meaning to write this as my first entry but haven’t gotten around to it. Hopefully more will be coming out of this blog. I am trying to brighten up and start out fresh. Watching the Opening Ceremony for me was mind boggling. I would have to say my favorite part about the ceremony was the blocks which at first I thought was all electronically done then at the end when they all showed their faces it amazed me. To me I don’t see how America could put on a show like that. I mean all we have is Pop Stars and I don’t think it would even compare.
