Twitter and 140 Characters
Monday, November 10, 2008
Regularly typing within the constrain of 140 char. has influenced how I frame information and ideas. Near as I can tell, it's for the better

Am I lame for being 23 and still having no idea what the crap twitter is?
@K.L. The answer is NO to being 23 and not knowing what Twitter is. Twitter is not age dependent.
Twitter is on one hand micro blogging and on the other hand public sms. Yet, it has social aspects too. Bottom line, it is a new communication medium. Like with other mediums, when they were new, people are using it in different ways and still experimenting.
One way to go about it is to find people that tweet about what you're interested in and "follow them." Their feed will be delivered to you. Then you can choose to interact or what ever from there.
All kinds of services are available to make tweeting easier. You can get into that stuff later if you like.
