Twitter has taken over my life in a way I never expected. I have been absent from the blogging scene for quite a while now. It’s just that it’s been easier for me to tweet and share my experiences with everyone than logging on to wordpress and drafting something new. I have integrated my twitter with my facebook to make it easier for people to view my updates. Each time I tweet I have a new status message on Facebook. My friends get tired of me sometimes coz my updates fill up their page and it’s kinda annoying for them as I am totally in their face. I managed to annoy my brother big time as I kept tweeting while watching “Drag me to Hell.” He was annoyed coz he thought I was revealing potential spoilers for the movie.
Sometimes I get really bored and just tweet for the sake of it. I tweet a lot and yet I am unable to finish my text message allowance. Despite all my persistent texting I am only able to use around 400 texts a month. I have around 1200 text messages to use every month and it’s a pity most of it goes to waste.
Anyway I know for a fact that Doc (Teeth Maestro) loves using twitter as much as I do though he uses it for more practical reasons. People are finally catching up with Twitter and using it big time. I started off when Doc got an account but didnt use it as much as they ended support for a lot of network operators in Pakistan along with a number of countries.
I am really glad that facebook and twitter work so well together. I get a lot of facebook updates through text everyday. Most of these updates are by Doc as he is tweets a lot. I remember the day when terrorists attacked the Sri Lankan cricket team. I managed to get RT updates on my phone thanks to doc which kept me in the loop. However it can be annoying when you are sleeping and your phone keeps buzzing every 2 mins. I woke up earlier this morning to find 50 messages in my inbox (thank you twitter/facebook).
This is absolutely right –
The whole Twitter mania is sweeping the whole world – including myself getting an account both for myself and work purpose.
But it looks like there are even more people taking advantage of the service.
Nice post BTW
