Twitter

So I'm on Twitter now. I wasn't expecting to "get it", just like when I joined FaceBook, but this one grew on me faster.

I like the fact that Twitter integrates very easily with FaceBook and some other sites, so that I can send a "Tweet" and my FaceBook status is updated at the same time.

But I think the coolest part of Twitter is that I have a Rockstar following me.

No, really! I have a Rockstar who is following me.

Not that I expect that he reads anything that I post, or would "nudge" me if I haven't sent a Tweet for a while, but still, it's pretty cool. What's even better is that he is the lead singer for one of my all-time favorite bands, Simple Minds: Jim Kerr.

And, no, I'm not ashamed to admit that I love Simple Minds. In fact, I just ordered their latest CD from Amazon.co.uk. It's called "Grafitti Soul". I've heard some snippets from it, and I can't wait to get it. Should be here in another couple of days.

So if you're wondering why I haven't updated this blog for a while, that's why. Blogging takes more time that I have these days, but Tweets are quick, and that's where I focus my "Social Networking Energy" right now.
