TwitterVerse

So I have discovered a new obsession. Well, I was introduced to this obsession by my husband. For those of you who do not know what Twitter is, it is a simple messaging platform. How is it different then AIM or IChat? Well, First it limits you to only 140 characters at a time and the basic tag line is "What are you doing right now?" Second, it is a way to send a blast out to all your friends or followers of your most recent observation or what you are doing at the moment. The best part is you can have it sent directly to your phone and update your own status from your phone.
Why is it addicting? It is so simple. You can easily follow what your friends are up to all day long. The newest thing is that celebrities off all ilk are using this. All post are completely public. It is interesting to read things are coming straight from their mouths the minute that they think them. Now of course I know that said celebrities are not stupid. Of course they randomly peddle their next projects, but it can be damn entertaining in between. If you haven't tried this service out I would recommend it. You will be addicted in no time.
