Twitter

On almost every blog I read, the author is twittering. In case you don't capisce, twitter is an app that lets you post to your blog via cell phone. Twittering usually consists of short little updates as to a person's whereabouts, frame of mind, progress on a project or toward a destination of some kind. Snippets.

I don't twitter. I don't text message people, mostly because I so seldom have a need to that I generally forget its even an option...I'd rather just call. And also, I'm cheap a good steward. Texting costs and even though I don't pay for it (NC3 pays for my cell phone) I can't really justify spending money so that I can laboriously type in messages on a cell phone instead of just calling.

Besides, when I blog, it almost always is a major effort. With the exception of my humor contributions a la youtube.com, I almost never fire off a quip. Therefore when time is short, blogging often gets pushed to the back burner. Heck, the whole reason I'm even writing this post is to satisfy the not-so-silent minority of folks who begin harassing me if I wait too long.

So don't expect me to Twitter anytime soon, and don't expect me to care about your twittering ...unless you're, like, Santa or something. That would be cool. I wonder if Santa blogs?
