Hell, I can’t even keep my blog updated, and it’s one of the “first” and most straight forward inroad into this world of social networking. Anyway, there’s a lot out there. So, in order to get myself caught up and such, I signed up for a Twitter account on Friday.

It’s hard to describe exactly what it is, but think of it as blogging with severe A.D.D. You get 140 characters to speak your mind and often times, this generates replies by those who “follow” you. You chose people to follow was well. So, you start to build a rolling list of comments made by people all over the world. There are any number of disjointed conversations for you to take part in, and when you explore new people to follow, you get to see who they are following – thereby increasing the potential to add to the pool of comments you get. It’s kind of like the digital version of people watching at a bar in the middle of a Las Vegas casino.

Anyway, I’ve enjoyed it. Hopefully this will get me to post more thoughts here (the kind that need more than 140 characters). I felt like sharing. Check it out if you haven’t before. Hopefully, I’ll see you there!

By night, I like to pretend I’m the next great internet entrepreneur (tights and cape sold separately) by trying to dabble with little web projects from time to time. Unfortunately, I tend to get distracted before any get substantial traction. I decided this week (along with starting a new blog), to pick back up on one of the ones I’ve taken a couple of cracks at already:

Texas Music Talk

We’ll see how things go this time around.
