I like to claim that I started using Facebook because I went back to school and it's how all the kiddies communicate these days, but the truth is I made an account as soon as they opened it to the general public. Previously it was only closed networks for students and company employees, there were no "local" networks. I wanted to know what the fuss was all about, so I signed up! I didn't do anything with it until I went back to school, though...didn't have any friends to add until then.

Hehe! I can't see that happening to me - not with my link - even though I know she's into promoting books.

Not unless she developed a penchant for erotica...

Why thank you!
Are you enjoying me working on my homework right now? I'm not.
Three tests on Thursday! Good luck.

This thing is very viral. I make maybe two little Tweets a day and have 87 followers in a little over a month. Every morning I wake up to two or three emails telling me who is following me. Right now it's just fun but when I get 1000 or more that's some marketing possibilities

I get a lot of new followers but most of them are either spam or people who follow everyone in hopes that they will get followed back. I'd rather my only followers were friends and people genuinely interested.

I don't block anyone. But I don't follow as many either as I did in the beginning. One girl wrote me and said she has to go masturbate when I tweeter. Which is weird because I'm not that sexual there.

Are you kidding? Your tweets are extremely sexual, exclusively sexual. You're the most explicit person I know on there.
As for getting 1000 followers, good luck. I've been on Twitter for 2.5 yrs and I don't even have 500 followers, and I tweet frequently and about a diverse set of topics. You're the only person I know who is so explicit, so you'll attract followers that way, but unless you tweet more often and follow more people yourself, it'll be hard to get 1000 followers.

Sometimes I am. Not sure what the rules are either. It's hard to write erotic being limited. At last it has stopped raining.

I just checked the TOS, I don't see anything on there about pornography. Of course, being limited is the point of Twitter; if you're not interested in the challenge, what fun is it?
I forgot that you're not totally sexual - sometimes you write about your garden. I like those. The other day you referred to "my first garden salad" and I was like WHAT?? The man has never had a salad?! Then I realized it was YOUR garden.

Funny, I just wrote an article about social media and why I think it's destroying civilization as we know it.
KIDDING. I did write an article though.
It does bug me a little to be honest, the current glut of social media.
I liken Twitter and Facebook to being at a loud, raucous party. There are lots of people, lots of banter, chit chat, flirting...but it's difficult to have a conversation of any substance. It's fun and exciting, but superficial.
Some people are happy with a diet of one liners and witty rejoinders, but I need more. In real life I prefer small intimate gatherings where people can interact on a meaningful level.
Maybe it's because I'm no good with idle chit chat and light banter.
Message boards like these, and the blog that I publish, which gets a pretty fair amount of traffic and therefore, spawns a lot of discussion, is more my speed. I've noticed on this board that some threads go on for pages and pages. I like that. It's satisfying in a way that Twitter and Facebook are not.
I don't condemn people who use those applications. I don't think they're socially inept loser types who can't function independant of their keyboard.
I do have a Facebook account and thought I don't use it much, it is fun. I definitely see the appeal. But I have limited time to "play" online, and so I choose other media on which to waste my time.
To each his own.
