Twitter Me This

1 Comment »

So, I just started using twitter and it is pretty cool. One of the best things I think on facebook is seeing people’s status change…it can show what they are going through or doing right now. Twitter is a little microblogging tool that you basically just state your status like you would on facebook and thats it. You can get updates in text message form sent to your form whenever someone adds something to twitter.

I love it. Sometimes it takes too long to write a whole blog entry but it is easy to send little status updates in my free seconds…the question is, how do I get family members and friends to watch that for my status updates without having them be forced into getting an account and always logging in to see the updates…

Maybe there is a WordPress plugin I can use to show it on my personal blog or some sort of RSS thing to check out. Either way I think I like twitter…although they need to add more ways to send and receive updates, like through email, IM, or RSS or something, because I don’t get unlimited text messages so it can definitely ruin the experience.
