To tweet or not to tweet …These days this is more the question than any other , if you look at twitter anytime of the day or night the tweets will amaze you , they are so varied , cover so many subjects that truly nothing is left out . The news people even use it for finding out things they do not know about as more often than not twitter knows , people from all walks of life will tweet things they see or experience and often they are right in the middle of something going on. Almost no one these days will not tweet if they see something or someone that they think we all should know about which is why the news is often behind the eight ball they are not on the scene so to speak as quickly as the twits. There are more twits now than there ever was so way more information gets passed around so much quicker than it ever did , we know things now faster than ever if we want to or not so many twits it almost impossible to avoid finding out .
So how has this come to pass? how has Twitter become so big , so important to so many in such a very short time ? Let’s face it , it has not been about that long , but it seems now that everyone and his dog has to use it , they either are on it or they have access to it. I know I have blogged about Twitter before but thought I would go again from a different angle as so much has changed and Twitter has gotten even bigger , and they are now looking to give us more than 140 characters , and that will make it more interesting lol trust me on this , there has been times when trying to tweet someone that the character limit get’s right in the way . So increasing the amount of characters we can use should make things quite interesting indeed. ( Should be very funny too )
So why has it all become so big ? Why has Twitter become so popular ? Why is it that so many people have now got Twitter accounts ? What is so good that so many want to be on it ? Myself I use it for the contact with friends also for the fun and giggles and there are a lot of those believe me . I also use it to keep up with the news of what is going on around the world as it is almost always way ahead of the main stream news , and it is good to know what is what . Also get most of my sports news there first as all of the sports we follow all have twit accounts , and lol even some of the cars tweet and a pit lane whiteboard we know also tweets so what is not to like ? There are so many sports we love it is good to be able to see what’s going on with them so quickly , and Twitter is the best place to find out about things quickly. Also it is a very easy way to keep in touch with family as a quick tweet gets info to them very quickly rather than having to wait , and you an tweet on the run knowing that the 1 you are tweeting will get the message .
So is it a good thing or a bad thing ? That is a very good question and no I have not worked that out yet either , sometimes I think it is great other times I don’t , depends on the day , the time, the circumstances , every 24 hours is so very different on it you just have to go by what you see at any given time . Whether this is good or bad is something we have to work out by ourselves , make our own decisions what is good and what is not . I find that for me it is just mainly a giggle and a great place to stir people from a distance , have some fun , I find the best way is never to take any of it too seriously that way you can’t get hurt especially if we don’t let it get to us . That way we do not get our knickers in a twist over nothing , and keep ourselves intact as much as possible.
To Tweet or not to Tweet ? No idea but I will continue to monitor the situation and get back to you on it lol . This is a thing that really you do need to just keep watching until you know what you want from it , and it is really up to the individual to work out what they do or do not want in a social media outlet. There are other ways yes but not many as direct to people where you can get an answer right away , there is still IRC and that is also good and a lot of fun but not too many people use it anymore , the glory days when almost anyone was on have long gone sadly as it too was a lot of fun , there are still a few of us that use it but not many now.
To Tweet or not to Tweet ……Is all up to you …
I woke up this morning feeling down,so I stood up…
I think I’ve finally found someone I could spend the rest of my life with, I should probably get out of his closet and introduce myself……
