What’s up with Twitter?

Monday, October 13, 2008

Since I am President of a technology association I often “dip my tow in the water” in respect to participating in some of the web 2.0 tools.  I first became aware of Twitter about 6 months ago when I learned that someone was “following me”.  My first reaction was to ask myself why is someone following me...are they some kind of stalker?  Well; that wasn’t quite my reaction, but I suppose it could have been.  Since then I have done an occasional twit, and actually follow a few people. 
I am sure, with ample research, I could understand the original intent of Twitter, or someone may want to respond to my blog who is more in the know.  If I had any say as to how it should work it would be more along the lines of people conveying information that is actually important.  Maybe it’s just that I see myself as all business about business, but I don’t really need to know if you went out and bought an ice cream for lunch or if your washing machine broke down.  This really could be a good tool if everyone could just agree to talk about things that make a difference. 
Wouldn’t this be a good topic for Andy Rooney to discuss on 60 minutes?
