I’ve heard talk to Twitter for so long but resisted because of my lazy stance on blogging and the fact that I thought it was just for trendy tech types, well this week I finally gave in and signed up and I love it! For those of you that don’t know, it’s a micro-blog – basiclly like a normal blog but only the post have to be less than or equal to 140 characters. Because of this it lends itself more to throwing up little comments about what you’re doing or where you are and often just URLs of interesting videos, articles or blogs you’ve found. The simplicity of Twitter makes it perfect for filling those little spots of time you have free such as train journeys, waiting for data to load (occupational hazzard) and walking down the street (looking both ways when crossing roads mind you), even better is the fact that it’s availably via the web, instant messaging clients, mobile web, SMS and RSS (supported by the Sony Ericsson W910i). In the service you choose people who you want to follow and then other people choose to follow you, I’m currently wondering how I might increase my number of followers but I guess like any medium that if you build it – they will come.
Well, that’s enough real blogging now – I’m going to get back on over to Twitter and try to find more people to follow.
