Wow! I logged on here this morning to find that I have a whole bunch of followers now, thanks to Roni Loren's tweet yesterday. How cool, in an intimidating sort of a way. I clicked on everyone who is on my follower list now, and checked their blogs, and clicked on the blogs they follow, and...wow. I'm REALLY not going to get much writing done now. Of course, if I could lay off the science stuff (as in, my day job) I could probably do more blog following...I'm sure my boss won't mind. No, I'm not sure.
I guess I'm also going to have to learn how to tweet. I have been resistant, mostly because I don't generally think I have anything short and sweet to tweet (and noone really cares if I "Went to the bathroom again because I drank four diet Cokes in the past hour"). I think I have to figure out that whole hashtag thing (and I'm not even sure I'm using the right terminology). Is there a "Twitter for Dummies" website?
Oops, my fifteen minute science break is up, better get back to work before the boss comes in...
Just a few days of scientific observation, and you'll have Twitter figured out in no time. :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with Twitter--most.addicting.thing.ever! And I hear you about the day job. I could get SO MUCH DONE if it wasn't for the day job...except for that paying the bills part.
ReplyDeleteGlad to help! And Twitter IS addictive. (Hashtag is the right terminology btw.) :) It took me a while to get the hang of it, but it's a lot of fun.
