No, that’s a lie, but I have an embarrassing confession to make. — I’ve joined Twitter. Ok, not so bad. It’s not like I’m admitting that I read the Twilight books or anything. Though it’s hard to kick the feeling that I’ve joined some sort of cult of self-aggrandizing celebrities and their stalkers, Twitter is undeniably and increasingly becoming a powerful tool in the up-and-coming world of digital media. Twitter is also full of helpful and interesting users who post more than just cleverly worded 140-character descriptions of their rather mundane lives (no offense most of the people on Twitter, now including myself). I’ve been tracking a few members for a long time, but now that I’m a real twitterer (tweeter?) and not just a follower, I can become a more valuable member of this social-network.
First order of business — push “Jon & Kate adopt Balloon Boy” to the top of the trending keywords. Second order of business — hire a ghost twitterer who can tweet just like me so I don’t have to spend the 30 seconds a day doing it myself.
