Twitter... (The NEW Red Blinking Lite on your Answering Machine)

I kinda noticed that I look forward to being twittered...
*( If you DON'T KNOW WHAT TWITTER IS... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter )*

Kinda like... Coming home (in the olden days) and noticing the Red Blinking Lite on my Answering machine...

"SOMEBODY WANTED ME WHEN I WAS AWAY!!!"

-or-

no blink...
"OH WELL, No One cares about me today"...

But

Then you read the text -or- listen to the message and it's either a ABC7 News update or telemarketer... AT LEAST on TWITTER, you can decide who's Stati you will receive and which ones get forwarded to your mobile...

But there is a LOT of fluff... and NOT a lot specific to me... BUT still, often I get to hear the mini-thoughts, the mini-moments of friends...

So it is a little bit special... Kinda... until you realize they just whispered this missive to 60-6000 peeps...

You just have to keep that perspective... NOT to respond EVERY TIME you read a Twitter from a friend BECAUSE it's more like a shout to a group rather than a whisper to you...

But still...

Sometimes...
It's kinda nice to be shouted at...
by a friend...
