Why Do I Twitter?
I use twitter to:
get news: I follow several of the google business news updates as well as wine, advertising and tech news.
make friends: Since my interests vary from motorcycles, wine, internet marketing to music, I find myself following people with similar interests. It’s cool to chat with people around the world.
communicate with friends: Along with new friends around the world, I even have some friends in real life who I like to update and stay updated on.
communicate with professional network: Being an interactive marketing professional in Kansas City, it makes sense to get acquainted and chat with fellow twitterites in the area.
give live updates: Sometimes if I go somewhere and I want to try to entice my friends or make them jealous, i might do some updates or even some twitpics of the good time.
get live updates: There’s always something going on and always someone on twitter willing to send updates.
get opinions of friends: the thing about twitter is if you’re registered, chances are you like giving your opinion.
allow non-twitterers to keep tabs on me: My wife is subscribed to my feed on her iGoogle page and my in-laws know how to get to my profile… so I gotta watch what I say.
So, why and how do you use twitter?
