I had that hump to get over with Twitter: first not getting the hype, then dismissing it as yet another contributor to our increasingly ADD culture. But of course I signed up anyway because I'm a joiner (I'm allowed one since I've held out and never done the MySpace thing). After a few updates ("tweets"), I had the light-bulb moment, and now I have to convince everyone I know to sign up and add me as a friend, because it's one of those services that is only as fun as the size of your network. If you didn't already know, Twitter is kind of a blogging/chat/texting hybrid. Its main appeal is convenience, you can update it through the web or your IM software or cute little desktop apps or even through your cell phone. If you're not reading this entry through a feed reader, you can see over there on the right that I added Twitter updates on my sidebar. I got an account for myself, kmel, and one to use for Otto updates, ottokight. I really, really wish I had started this back before he was born, because those zillions of little milestones go by so fast and Twitter provides such an easy way to record and broadcast them, e.g. one-handed while holding your little fussbudget in your other arm. Twitter may be perpetuating ADD but such is the new-mother brain! posted by in Miscellany
Comments i was the same way with twitter -- didn't get the point, at first. but when that lightbulb went off, MAN. doing one for otto is genius.
