I have survived the rest of 2008 without taking part in the phenomenon we call, Twitter. Why you might ask? I’m not really sure. All I know is that nobody I know have invited me until this time.
And I had to be invited before I even took time to give Twitter a try. I’m weird.
Anyway, so my friend told me how wonderful Twitter is and how well you can make connections with other people, especially with people you haven’t even met (in person or online). I followed her advice on trying Twitter so I created my account and started sending out Tweets (did I spell it right?).
I found out it was really very fun to use Twitter. In just 4 hours, I already 5 followers including my friend. I have also downloaded and installed Twhirl, a Twitter client, as I’ve read quite a number of great reviews about it.
So here I am, a Twitter newbie still learning all about it while the rest of the world have made Tweets like a thousand times.

I was hoping you had posted out your Twitter username here. I tried finding papaces in twitter but the site said that the page doesn’t exist. :-p
Here’s my username: http://twitter.com/ladyprogrammer. I use TweetDeck to tweet my tweets!
See you around.
Also, I’ve used Twhirl, it was my favorite desktop client before, but I find TweetDeck less noisy and intrusive.
Hi Gem,
I’m using Twhirl right now. Maybe I’ll try TweetDeck later. So far Twhirl works fine for me.
is twitter better than plurk?
I’m not sure with Plurk. I only got to use it once.
I think Twitter’s better because there are more users plus you can get to follow popular people.
I think I need to get on the Twitter wagon soon. Thanks for the good information and I totally agree – even without knowing a lot about Twitter, it will not kill blogs!
