Twitter

Hello all. I am learning how to use Twitter. What a new and strange world. Some people pass along great web information. Some folks talk about extremely personal things - almost like they forgot the whole world can see what it going on in their lives - wonder if they are concerned about privacy protection. Others just write to see themselves in print. I am learning all kinds of new words - like retweet and tweetdeck. I feel like such a newbie.

What is the take-away from all this? You can learn new things at any age, even things that belong to the newest generation. We were all young once and we don't have to grow old ever. Stay young and keep learning. Having fun is the opposite of boredom. I choose fun. How about you?

Twitter

Just set up a Twitter account for the first time. I am wondering if this tool is like have a phone conversation with someone with out the phone. I think if I look at it in those terms it make sense. Otherwise, why would someone care what little boring everyday things I am doing at the moment I am doing them. Anyone who knows me well knows I hate talking on the phone so Twitter could be a good thing for me. If you want to talk to me using Twitter my user name is BEAUTYWITHCAUSE (no "a"). I will probably get back to you faster than I would return a phone message.

Humn, that's two pieces of technology in the same month - I think I have made my quote for the month. For those of you that are technophobes my advice to you is start with just one piece of technology and live with it for a while. Start too many at once and you will drop them fast. On top of the fact that you won't be able to remember a single password! Take it slow and don't allow yourself to be overwhelmed. One new tool a month is plenty. I am always willing to help if you need it. Sometimes the blind leading the blind can be fun.
