As mentioned previously, I’ve recently delved into the world of Twitter.  In the short amount of time that I have been experimenting with it, I’ve experienced some nuances in communication that I never that I would encounter.

On one occasion, I came across this tweet from Robert Scobel informing everyone that he was transmitting a video feed from his cell phone camera live to qik so that anyone could listen in to the party.  Not only was I watching a live feed of people sitting around a bar table in San Antonio, but I was able to interact with them via chat and get near immediate responses via the feed.  I must be getting old because this was a bit shocking to me and it all started with a twitter tweet.

Alternatively, I have found myself responding to someone’s tweet on twitter while communicating with them via an instant messaging platform.  All the while, this person was simply sitting at the other end of the office building at which I work.  In the end, and after finally realizing what I was doing, I got up and walked over and started to talk.  Yup – verbal communication face to face.  Amazing.

I’m kind of curious what else I am going to run into.

It’s been quite a long time since I have written a blog post.  The activity got a little overwhelming in that I was paying more attention to spam in the comments than content on the page.  Recently, I dove into the world of Twitter. I had no idea what I was doing, but now my addiction is becoming a little more evident. The ability to provide a smaller update in life without committing to an entire blog post is exactly what I need to maintain traction here.  I have included a small feed on the homepage of my site so that even more random people can stumble across my day. All in all, I have things to say. I have thoughts that need a place to go. We’ll chalk it up to randomness once in a while, but darn it, it might be fun!
