Don't tell me how to twitter

Dec 19, 2008 21:36

What is with all these articles telling people how to twitter - what not to do on twitter?  Like this one.  I started twittering just to keep up with my friends.  I read my friends and hope they read me just to stay in touch.  I don't really care if other people follow me or not.  I allow strangers to follow me, but it's their own fault if they are annoyed that I twitter that I am eating oatmeal.  I didn't ask them to read.  Twitter for me is a place to put little bits of everyday life and connect with friends.  Seems like a lot of people use if for marketing and making business connections.  While I did happen to make a deal for our company with someone here in PC that I met over twitter, that is not my intention.

BTW - I turned off public twitters because I didn't want people at work reading my tweets.  And since I had them updating over at facebook too, they were getting read by people I really didn't want reading it.  So, that means they won't get posted over to LJ.  If you want to read them, you can request to follow snowboardbunny @ twitter.  I haven't had much time for posting, so they were kind of a psuedo posting.

I'm babbling.
