Chat rooms, sms, myspace,facebook,weblogs and now TWITTERS!!!!
Posted by mykringo on 13th October 2007
Where do people get the time for all this internet chatting etc. I have only just checked out TWITTER. Referred to as MICRO-BLOGGING . I have enough trouble getting time to do more than one blog a week for uni. What’s going on??? Is anyone actually doing any work out there?
Twittering is confined to 140 characters but hooks up with e-mails, sms as well as instant messaging and when you check out some of the twitters it’s obvious there are a lot of people with nothing else to with their time.
Check out this example quoted from the Wall Street Journal:
9:51 a.m. Tweet Tweet… Just checking in… Happy Friday Twitter-ers
11:02 a.m. Getting ready for my 1sy Yoga class of the year! I’m scared.
2:02 p.m. Late Lunch – Tomato Soup & Pretzel. 4hrs till Happy Hour! (Yoga was good)
4:11 p.m. Falling asleep at my desk. 2 more hours till cocktails!
5:40 p.m. Shutting down & Heading to the Bar. Might turn on twitter-txt (you’ll hate it I’m sure)
5:43 p.m. Just for DougH, I will Twitter-intoication
8:01 p.m. Hi twitts miss ya etc.
Really exciting eh?
