Twittering!!!!

     I had heard of twitter before but was not exactly sure of what you did on there or what it was even for. I thought you just updated what you were doing all the time so everyone that wants to know can see. What I did not know is how many people actually have twitter and use it. The assignment was to create a twitter account and use it for a week. This is my experience with twitter.
     The first time I logged on the twitter website was the night before it was due. Guess what, the website was down. So I thought to myself and said I would do it in the morning. I logged on the next morning and it worked fine. I did not expect twitter to be so confusing at first. I was sopposed to add everyone in my section and this other list of things. I was so confused. It took WAY longer than I thought and I barely finished it before class on monday night :) . Anyway I found just jumping into twitter for the first time was kind of confusing. I have figured it out now and I can see why I would want to keep my account. There are many people on twitter and people you know, so it is interesting to see what there doing. Also you can get updates from the news or pretty much any company you like. I also like the fact that you can tweet a comment to someone directly. So there can be conversations on there which is cool. My twitter link is http://twitter.com/#!/ChadStarlin, and feel free to comment and throw some tweets at me.
    All around I found the assignment to be fun! I like just jumping into something new and trying to figure it out. Yeah I got frustrated at times only because I did not know what I was doing!! If you spend enough time with it though you will get it figured out. I suggest everyone should try twitter, but maybe have a little help around incase you do mess up setting up an account. The last thing I like and think people should try twitter is that you can actually find jobs. Many companies can be searched on twitter and looked up which is nice. I found this on the readings (http://www.sysomos.com/insidetwitter/sixdegrees/). So twitter can be a very good positive website that I suggest everyone should try and see how they like it. Even if you get very confused and frstrated at first. It was a fun experiece overall though and I now enjoy it.
