Twitter--or not?

Hitherto I have avoided twitter like poison.

What is it? Do I need it? Why do I need it? Will I become an even larger Internet weirdo than I am now? Jack explains:

I have been using Twitter for around a month and am slowly learning my way around it. For a long time I was reluctant to get involved with anything else that could serve as a time suck. As it is I feel like I am constantly searching for ways to turn a 24 hour day into 36 hours. So the idea of adding another responsibility bothered me.

But at the same time I find social media to be incredibly interesting so I wanted to dip my toes into the water and see what happened.

Thus far I have been pleased with it. It is fast and easy so I haven't found it to be particularly taxing...yet. Yet is the operational word because I can see a time and place when it becomes too time consuming so I have been relatively cautious about who I follow.

Thus I have fulfilled my obligation to link with Jack, ass today is Link with Jack Day.
