@J: Hahaha. Take your own sweet time. We all work and play and read blogs at our own pace. Whatever works for us.

Don't say that it's addicting. Other readers might have the wrong idea. Let's just say twitter makes one an uber blogger or blog reader. :)

@diTesco: Bro, I'm using Tweetdeck and I swear by it. The best! I'm still not adept with its filtering feature though. But I use other apps too - like tweetree. If find it's threaded tweets just lovely. Very much like threaded comments in WP.
Thanks for the heads up, buddy. :)

Heelo Jan. I joined Twitter earlier this year and contrary to some, I find it quite interesting and easy to use. One of the key elements to enjoy Twitter is using the right Twitter Client or application if you prefer. Using Twitter's website is not so fun because it is almost impossible to have a feel of what is going on. For this, I recommend Tweet Deck, probably one of the best. You can create groups, filter annoying tweets, see public tweets (even if you are not following them), etc. I have some tips and a list of Twitter Apps that you could be interested. Check it out if you want on Twitter Tools and Tips

BTW, used properly, it does bring you traffic. Just avoid posting only your links and send meaningful Tweets.

@lemuel: facebook can be like your backyard. You get to meet people and friend them if you allow them past your gates and vice versa. Twitter is more democratic. You don't need their permission if you want to follow them. The only bad thing you can't send direct message to people who don't follow you back. But of course you can type a message for them: just @username then type your message.

It's not hard to use, twitter. You'll get the hang of it eventually. Darren Rowse has a blog about twitter: twitip.com

@joji: :) Which is the same thing. The things we put up in our blog reading - so many hazards. I'm glad you came prepared. hahaha

Yeah, you're right. Before I put on my glasses it was a wall of text. Then I put on my glasses, and I saw the sea of gray. And then... my third eye saw the mirror of wisdom... ",)
