Just Twittering Away

Is it just me or has the world of communication just gone completely mad? Thinking aloud I can now be contacted via my home phone, mobile, text, email (5 addresses on last count), this blog, Bebo, Facebook and Messenger. Oh and by letter - can't remember the last time I got one of those though!

In terms of online, I'm finding myself spending more and more time checking each site to get the latest news and goss' from friends and family as well as trying to put my snippets of news in each as well. It's just getting daft how much time I'm wasting in these things. So if that wasn't enough I just got an email from Jill last night inviting me to join Twitter . Now this is something I could get addicted to :-).

I've actually had an account there for a while but completely forgot about it. Essentially though the site wants you to answer one simple question - What are you doing right now?

I see this as a lazy man/woman's blog but in 125 characters you place entries in of what you're doing or thinking at that exact time. Being an era of online networking and friend requests Twitter follows all that by allowing others to "follow" your entries and you can do the same with them if they have an account.

"Sounds a bit dull" you might say but come on people how many of you like to know what other people are up to? That's why all these websites are popping up and driving us all mad - anyone else getting fed up with App requests from Bebo and Facebook??

So anyway you can find me here and I'm going to see how I get on with this. So if you're ever thinking "I wonder what James is doing right now" you know where to look :-). Oh it's accessible on mobile phones as well so no you don't need to be at a desk.

James.

P.S. Be warned I have some really geeky thoughts something :-)
