Tweeeeeeet
So I’m testing out twitter. I think I understand where the name came from– I kind of feel like a twit posting to it. Most likely b/c I’m essentially talking to myself at the moment. Unless you know many people using this site, or you enjoy commenting on what strangers are doing, it’s not that enjoyable. I suppose if you’re a teen, though, it could be fun to link this to your phone and check your friends’ posts (usually in lieu of paying attention in class). It’s sort of like instant messaging.
Looking at some of the messages posted… wow. It’s interesting to read what some people are doing at 4:00 in the afternoon. Watching movies, washing the dog (must have paused in soaping to post that)…
Facebook has something very similar. It includes a line up top — “what are you doing?” People change their post daily. It’s amusing to read what others are up to– even more fun to comment on their activities. (Read “comment” as “make fun of.”) =)
