Yeah, I twitter. I have since March 2007. At last count I have 2,988 updates, which means I’ve posted about my life 2,988 times. Wow…
So I decided to write a little post about why I twitter… here’s a few reasons:
1) Free stuff
I have received 10 free books (4 “real-life” books and 6 ebooks), tons of free Music and some great deals on Amazon mp3s, just by reading the tweets from people I follow. Booya.
2) One place to update what I’m doing
I like updating one place to update multiple sites – I like to be efficient. For some time you couldn’t update Facebook via text, but I could update Facebook via twitter via text. So there you go.
3) It helps my friends and family keep up with what I’m doing.
Sometimes I don’t have time to call or draft an email about what we’ve been doing, but I can twitter.
4) Limited to 140 characters.
This keeps me from writing ridiculously long posts about my life and making me look like a selfish “its all about me” tool.
Ok, so I better stop there. I could keep writing, but that’s not the point of this post. I just want to give you and idea about why I do it.

I love how the 140 limit forces condensation.
Sweet. Dad was talking about how facebook is…. He used some big fancy word for it but it meant something like self centered, I love how you can use it just for what it is meant to be used for, not to glorify yourself. That seems to be increasingly hard to do in our culture….I think I just got the topic for a new blog and facebook notes post.
