Twitter part 2

There is a lot to talk about on Twitter, as well as a lot has been said about Twitter. It is referred to as a Social Media application. That is good enough for me.

With other people on there, you have Followers and people follow you. It's a bit confusing, I know, but once you get into it, it works pretty good I guess. I thought that it was going to be much more exact in it's communication ability than it is in reality, or at least my experience. There are times when I may not get a response back at all to posting something to somebody. It is very hit or miss in that respect. At first I thought I was getting dissed and felt like dropping everyone I was following and expecting to get a response back from. But then I would e-mail them and get great Emails back, so it is just the nature of the beast. It is more of a one way street I guess.

You throw your posts out there and odds are they are just going to sit there, nothing will happen in response, but then there are those times when the heavens open up and the Twitter God smiles down on you kindly and followers actually respond to your posts.

There are two kinds of responses you may get, direct and through the Twitter Feed. You have a way of checking on both of these, But I think some people wait a while to check any such thing. I don't know. I know, for the most Part, I will respond to a message either way, direct or not. Others, I guess they are just too busy or Important.

Or I am just getting dissed.

By the By, I am Beamer on Twitter, if you want to follow me. I'snt that exciting news?
