I kept feeling like I was missing something and--come to find out--I was. A whole world of witty 140 character length gems of philosophical isms. I signed up and then promptly spent the next few hours getting completely immersed in the lifestyle of fellow tweeters. Who knew that John Green reads Moby Dick in his spare time? Who has spare time?
Do you all tweet? And if so, can I follow you? As long as you sprinkle writing advice in with what you're having for lunch...I'll be happy.
What's your take? Is twitter wonderful or all encompassing, addicting, life-consuming: like crack.
Also, I'm considering these. Aren't they ADORABLE!
Twitter IS addicting! In a wonderful kind of way :) There's a huge writing community on there which I love. It's definitely a time-suck though, more so than Facebook, at least for me. So many different ways to get distracted!
ReplyDeleteI know. I need to figure out a balance. But I can see how great the community is.
DeleteI am not on twitter (part of the reason is the addiction factor and the other the non-excisting time factor)but I would definitely buy those shoes, haha!
ReplyDeleteProbably really smart to stay away. That's what I've done with facebook, but my crit partners kept courting me with twitter. I suppose it's like anything else, it will only distract me if I let it, right?
DeleteI'll pretend that.
Not a huge twitterer here, but when I have time (ha!) I'll peruse the rambling of twits. Welcome to your new distraction. :)
ReplyDeleteSee you on twitter.
DeleteI am currently in the serious time-suckage phase of my newbieness to Twitter. I hope I can keep things under control! (I'm happy you're on there with me, though.)
ReplyDeleteTrying to get a handle on it. It's a little like Kryptonite.
DeleteTwitter is a whole new world. Glad you're there. I'm working on it, but still feel pretty lost:)
ReplyDeleteI'm a little late commenting on your post, but I just found your site through Ilima's.
ReplyDeleteI started Twitter a few months ago too. I don't tweet a lot, but sometimes it's writing stuff, sometimes whatever. I feel guilty cause I feel like I'm ignoring Facebook. They are totally separare groups of people for the most part. Gotta figure out the balance somehow.
