1bigpresent joins the Twitterers
Thursday, February 5th, 2009Are you twittering yet? Or are you the one who’s wondering why we’re all twittering on? Well I was recently introduced to Twitter, a social networking site where you can mini blog as often as you like and with the likes of Phil Schofield, Fearne Cotton, Jonathan Ross and so many more. In fact even Britney is all of a Twitter….
To date Schofe is my best twitterer! He’s like a naughty schoolboy and twitters at every opportunity, even when he shouldn’t. It is addictive stuff! You can twitter about anything and everything. I haven’t come across any hard and fast rules - yet! It goes a bit like this: You register and then you look up some folk and simply ’follow’ them so you can see their daily tweets. If the mood takes they follow you back. It’s pretty cool that you can follow these guys and get daily insights into their lives but try to hide your disappointment when they don’t follow everyone back. Hey, with almost 37000 followers on Twitter, Schofe, I may just have to excuse you for not following little old twittering me:(
On the downside, one of Schofe’s avid followers is my worst twitter nightmare!! A few folk apparently have nothing much else to do but to stalk their celebrity favourites, and OMG boy do they stalk, ALL DAY. This means, when like me you have just a few people to follow or who follow you that their tweets appear on your screen constantly! One, who shall remain nameless, must tweet to Philip Schofield every few minutes, ‘Ooh I love your hair Philip! Is that a new suit Philip?’ and is currently upset that he hasn’t thanked her for the latest gift she sent him! She drives me absolutely crazy, or did till I deleted her!! Oh what joy, to exterminate on twitter, just like that, POW! GONE!
So what you all waiting for! Go get following and twittering and exterminating! Oh and BTW to follow me look for 1bigpresent!!
