To Tweet or Not to Tweet

The other day, I made the spontaneous decision to get a twitter account (shocking, I know, that I didn't have one until now!) but I'm not sure what to do with it. I have never really understood the point of twitter. It only seems like facebook statuses, so if you have a facebook, why do you need both?

Well, I was bored the other day and decided to try it out. I didn't know what my name should be. I have seen people do their blog's name, so I just went with that since jminton was taken. But now I'm thinking maybe I should have gone with my name instead??

And now for a confession....I have a weird obsession with The Bachelor/ette alumni. I know that they all date each other and it just fascinates me to know who they're with on that day. This is why 99% of the people I'm following are people who used to be on the Bachelor :) Weird, no? I acknowledge and accept that it is.

And I have NO idea how to read Twitter lingo! RT? I don't understand who's tweeting who on the main page when multiple names are listed!

I don't know if I'll post anything, I may just be more of a silent stalker of lame ex-reality stars :-) (Including Brad and Emily!)

My name is @smittenmintons but I may change it (if I can?)

So what do y'all think of Twitter? Is it more fun than I think it is?

Hahaha...I know! It took me SO long to understand the point of Twitter. I've come to the conclusion that - there isn't a point. It is just Facebook status updates...or very quick blogs (140 characters). Haha! I have one so that I can follow my 1,000,000 celeb crushes. I will definitely be following you! TWEET AWAY!

I'll second Brittany's comment - it does kind of take a while to get used to it, but it gets more fun/easier once you get a little group of Twitter friends that tweet together. haha. (I live by myself - I can't help but gravitate to social online stuff).

I can't seem to find you on Twitter though. Hmmm. Will try again.

I love twitter. RT means "Retweet" (:

You'll get the hang of it. And I'm obsessed with bachelor people too!

I don't have a Twitter account either. I've been thinking about it, but I'm with you on the FB statuses. If you have FB, why Tweet? hmm... but some of the comments are making me reconsider...

I am on there too but still don't get some of the lingo.

Ha! I can totally relate to this post! I adore blogging and recently branched out to opening a "fan page" for my blog but am struggling with remembering to update it. I feel that twitter would push me over the edge...and I might not ever leave my computer again. But, hey, that is just me...happy tweeting :) xx Cat
