Tweet, Tweet, Tweet...

Twitter Logo for Wendy CulpepperSo, have you done your share of "tweeting" today? Did you "Digg" or "Stumble"? To me, I feel so overwhelmed by social media. Just trying to keep up with facebook and e-mail is more than I can handle, and I have to admit I was dragged kicking and screaming onto facebook only six short months ago... Now, I know - the addiction is real people.

That being said, when I was told I should join "twitter" for the company and starting "tweeting", I thought "You must be joking, right"? There's more? Again, kicking and screaming, I joined twitter today. So for now, Facebook is out; I have a new obsession. It's really quite fascinating. I'm shocked what a voyeuristic perspective the site has. It's really just about interacting with others & reading their thoughts. Yes, that's it. The whole concept is "what are you doing"?

Now that I have people "following" me, they are waiting to see what I have to say. That's fascinating. Do people really care what I have to say? Apparently, some do. Anyway, as I continue to be inducted into the fascinating world of online social media, I'm always shocked at the impact and importance of these new outlets to the design world. I've already found on twitter so many amazing bloggers, fellow designers, PR companies, and many, many more just downright interesting people. So I'll end with this, whether you just think its fun to learn what other people are doing or you're looking for great business contacts and feedback, twitter is the place to start... Check me out and see me "tweet" at https://twitter.com/WendyCulpepper!
