So I was persuaded by a friend to get Twitter and I caved in. Tweet! It's like having a Facebook status all the time. I can update my thoughts, feelings, and questions and get comments and feed back through followers. Check me out at:

So why did I get an account? I heard it was a good way to find connections and possible job opportunities. Maybe ... and if so, why not give it a try? Tweet! I'd love to hear from viewers and share my status with people who are interested in my day to day activities. Compared to Facebook, Twitter seems to be more private, since it does not give out any personal information, photos, etc.... Which is why I decided to share it here!
There are so many social and networking sites out there. I'm only beginning to test them all out. I've heard of such sites such as "Tumbler" and "formsprings," among my peers, but have only tried formsprings:

If I am correct formsprings is a questionnaire site that allows anyone to ask questions, Either anonymously, or known. It's something to do when your bored, but I do not find it as addicting as Facebook. I think live feed and updates among people you know is what makes Facebook and Twitter so addicting. Lets see how addicted I can get with Twitter. So far it's not as exciting as I thought it would be:)
