Week 3: Twitter

I have now completed the twitter learning section of the web 2.0. I am not happy about it. If any of my friends and family are twitter-ites (I just made that word up), do NOT look for me. I won't be using it after this. I have long said I would not get a twitter. I have too much on my plate to care or worry about the daily goings on of people. I barely follow on facebook and it's more interesting b/c I get to see pictures! It's not that it's hard to use; I just don't want to. It's not the easiest thing to figure out, but it is doable. I guess I expected it to have a block at the top kinda like facebook to type in w/o clicking on a person. Maybe there is one, but I didn't see it this time. I feel I am compitent in it enough to help somone wanting to use it, but don't want to use it personally. I even got the luxury of blocking someone seconds after I signed up. I had a follower (whom I'd never heard of) immediately who wanted me to follow the link to their pics. Can we say porn? I would definately be hunted down at work had I clicked on that. :-) I guess the library can promote our events via Twitter. I would only promote our twitter to those I knew had a twitter account. I wouldn't suggest someone get a twitter account to follow us. Our website is good for those things as well.
