I hope you continue to do both.<br /><br />But as for your actual point, I only agree in a limited fashion. Twitter, like any fad, really should not be followed just because it is a fad, by any serious people. If something is popular because it is highly effective, that to me is not a fad. <br /><br />In the case of Twitter, I think that the disparity is too great between those for whom it works and those for whom it fails, to declare it a "must have". To be suckered into doing something you would not otherwise do simply because everyone is doing it, only to have it fail to achieve anything for you, is wrong to me. And not something I will allow myself to do.<br /><br />But that being said, I am attempting it's use, to see if it brings me success. Thus far, I cannot claim that it has done so to a great degree. But the experiment is not over.<br /><br />If, however, I do not feel any satisfaction from it's use at the end of my trial period, I will delete my account, fad or no fad.Ty Unglebowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06836504600859993438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637372924851105604.post-74198526753180933422010-03-05T23:42:47.015-05:002010-03-05T23:42:47.015-05:00Ty, I surfed from Brazen Careerist to your Twitter...Ty, I surfed from Brazen Careerist to your Twitter profile to your blog (I'm now subscribed via Google Reader) to this post. <br /><br />Personally, I feel that Twitter is almost becoming a must-have, in the same way that you needed a Yellow Pages ad in the 1970s or a fax number in the 1990s. It almost seems like a Twitter presence (or perhaps a Facebook presence) is expected. Even if Twitter truly is a fad, you almost need the presence for as long as the fad lasts.<br /><br />Whether the Twitter account is truly USEFUL or not...well, I suspect that you're forming your own opinions on that from your experiment.Empopriseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06344839707203239586noreply@blogger.com
