Comments on: Twitter: Life's too short http://daryllang.com/blog/186 Daryl Lang's blog about media, culture and transit Tue, 02 Mar 2010 11:50:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Bret http://daryllang.com/blog/186/comment-page-1#comment-52 Bret Thu, 10 Apr 2008 02:37:01 +0000 http://daryllang.com/blog/?p=186#comment-52 I could very well be wrong about it, too, but I chiefly look at Twitter as a way to bring some sort of content to my blog when I'm otherwise too darn busy to post something meaningful. That's why I've also started tinkering with simultaneously posting photos to Flickr and my blog. I just run the risk of letting it stagnate, and Twitter offers something a slightly different way to do things. Will it revolutionize the Web? Eh. Anyway, I can see both sides of the Twit, but I'm having fun with it. There's something about being able to post something witty before you forget it. (I'm still working on the witty part.) At the very least, it also gives me exercise in telling a snippet of a story in 180 characters or less!
