Follow Me On Twitter! If You Dare...

I've just recently begun a Twitter.
I didn't know anything about it or what it even was when I joined.
Now though, four days in (I think it's four...sort of a blur) I am addicted.
For those of you that don't know anything about it, it is essentially a social site that's sole function and purpose is to have status updates.
Nothing more, nothing less.

What is its purpose?
There is none.

Why is this appealing?
I don't know.

Twitter claims that these status updates (that can be updated from nearly anywhere tech-savvy enough to have made an application) are for friends and family to keep updated on what everyone is doing.
Cousin X finds Cousin Y on Twitter and clicks "follow" to receive any updates, and vice versa.
Family connection?
Maybe.
Depends how you look at it.

One thing I do know is that people are not going to frown if I update my Twitter 300x a day like they do on facebook.
Which brings me to the fact that I hate facebook...despite the fact I have one.

Moving on, it's useless fun, but fun it is for people like me that change their moods and minds once every five minutes.

And if this post hasn't rattled on enough already, you can follow me on my Twitter if you have one, and if not, join up!
