Twitter Power!

Today I’ve been thinking a lot about Twitter.  Is it bad?  Is it good?  Does anyone really care? A couple of days ago I signed myself up for Twitter.  Why?  I’m not really sure.  I have just started a new job in marketing and eventually I’ll be using Twitter for that.  I guess I felt like I should join up and get used to it.  Take a step into the Twitter pool.

So what’s been my experience so far?  Frankly, I keep forgetting about it.  I don’t have a phone set up to send Twitter messages.  Currently the only way for me to post one is to log in to the homepage and type one in — something I am routinely forgetting to do.

The other side of the issue is the actual messages.  What do I say?  I am not a particularly witty person.  I don’t have great epiphanies on a daily or even weekly basis.  I do have random thoughts, but who wants to read those.  In the past week, I think I’ve tweeted 7 times.  That’s it. No grand statements.  I have four followers, two of each I think are fake accounts.  One is my brother, and the last one is my boyfriend — both people I talk to on a regular basis.  So I say things that go into the abyss of the communication network.

I feel like I am adding to the clutter, adding to the noise. I don’t feel like I am doing anything remarkable or really interesting.

Maybe my usage will become more interesting when I am tweeting for my job.  Or maybe it will be exactly the same.  Adding to the commotion with some useless dribble.
