Problem Solved: Twitter

Andy Borgmann is on Twitter!Ok, so I am thinking to myself. You know, I have this whole website dedicated to me, but frankly, that just isn't enough. Take this blog for instance. On any given page, there are, at most, 2 pictures of me. If this blog needs anything, it needs more photos of me, no?

But then you say, you can't just put more pictures of yourself because that would just be conceited and arrogant...right? So what's a boy to do? Enter Twitter...

Twitter is like "Status" on Facebook, but you can embed it on your site and update it by text messaging. My friend CJ has been using it and after bugging me enough, I finally gave in like a girl on prom night.

Take a look to your left ------------------------------------------------------------------------->
and there you go. Now, even between my blogging days, you can catch up on what I am doing.

The irony of course is, if my premise was to validate a reason to put more pictures of me on the site and not be self-centered, I think I have done the opposite because it takes a pretty self-centered premise to assume others actually care about what I am doing during the day.

C'est la nouvelle vie...non? Isn't that what the internet is all about: me...and of course, you!

Damn you CJ. You are correct sir. Not only do I stink at grammar, I don't know directions ;)

You can also get an application on Facebook that automatically updates your Facebook status with whatever status you post to Twitter. I just did this myself. I am using a third party iPhone app called Twinkle that will update my Twitter status, then my Facebook app updates its status with my current Twitter status. This would be really annoying if the Facebook app also used the "@name" messages as well, but it doesn't!

And as I'm posting this, I now notice that you are using the same Facebook app that can be found at: http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/

    Andy is the Producer of The Allen Hunt Show; a progressive, talk radio show based in Atlanta, GA aimed at bringing faith back into the public discussion. And enjoys travel, aviation, web design, politics, friends, and faith. He holds that the secret to a full life is loving God and loving people - which he fails at constantly.

    Andy's blog is a place to discuss religion, politics, ministry, education, and well, just life! It is cross-post at The Allen Hunt Show, and, in a more limited fashion, at Newsvine.

    Andy lives in Alpharetta, GA.
