Several weeks ago I started twittering. Just before that, Facebook changed their look which I didn’t like. Now, after twittering for close to a month, I’ve grown to like it. Since setting my Facebook status to coincide with my twitter updates, I have gotten 200% more comments. So, I think that using the two together can help build more converstation and community. When people ask me what twitter is, I tell them it’s basically the Facebook status page without all the gifts, pokes and stuff. Although today, Matt Rhodes got the first Twitter Technical Foul for referencing wesleyan women. By the way, we are having a contest to name the Twitter Technical Foul. Send me your suggestions. It does not have to include the words twitter, technical, foul, or redundant. Winner gets full credit and something named after them. Easier to do that than to get “Mullikined.” Speaking of Facebook, watch this video right now. Now, I just need someone to show me how to do twitter pics. Saw something about joining a twibe today. Looks like twitter is taking a page out of the SWU handbook. That is to name every event using the letters “S-W-U.” The SWUperman shirt(anyone know where the template went), the SWUpy’s, SWUper Saturdays, SWUsical, SWUne flu, etc. I take full responsibility for this as all of this started with an idea Mike Keaton and I had(the before mentioned SWUperman shirt). Does this mean that all of us on twitter are twits? I should get a Twechnical for that one. Ding ding ding…we have a winner.
