Fuck. If it's good enough for Jon Wake it's good enough for me.
I'm a little scared of this Twitter thing because I know how carried away I get with shit like this. Dear God, have I not polluted our Internets enough already?
Ok, finally signed up, because i've got to switch from home-computer to amped up mobile phone for a few months. Not sure what I'm supposed to do know, but the chances are it will involve a LOT of swearing in many, many languages.
If I am asking to follow you is for almost no sexual perversitiy at ALL. Don't even think it.
Iam residing here and I should really go an join Mr. Ellis' faceless milions mow...
If you want to talk to me on twitter or see what I'm doing, look for @jaredchase . If you want to listen to my work twitter, which is mostly stuff about MMOs and Free to Play games, look for @ogreking .
I've almost stopped adding people back now. I actually want to follow people for real, not just catch a glimpse of them now and then in the enormous stream of people. A lot of you are faceless to me. So you follow me and I sneak and peep back at you and if I don't forget all about twitter for a week or two (something I do fairly often in these times of unstable internet connection) I'll add you back if I can put a face on you or if you tweet about interesting stuff or if I just feel like a grand, lovely lady of love and luck on that particular evening.
If you're some faceless person who haven't filled out his/her Whitechapel info nor twitter info, I won't bother. Generally, if you're using the internet as a social arena, the Whitechapel info profile thingie is your friend. I'm not saying you have to put your full address, your work phone number and your mum's maiden name. Just... something?
And I'm definitely with the less-is-more crowd here. Keeping it to 140 characters makes sure I choose the RIGHT 140 characters more often than not. It also makes me blog less because it raises the bar on what's worth blogging and what'll do as a tweet.
@odaelisabeth: I follow about 14 people, pretty much for the same reasons. With everybody else, I'll skim their profiles every now and then, and sometimes I'll subscribe to the feed in my rss reader to see if they keep coming up with good stuff. To me, that's a good middle ground - I can see more than 1 tweet at once in the rss reader, and I'll get a good impression without all the following, unfollowing and following again.
