Twitter

Social networks seem to me what all the buzz is about this day and age. People of all ages are using these sites to keep in contact with friends, family, businesses, and many other uses. I have noticed people who have generations of family members on their friends lists, even as old as grandparents. As technology advances in our society, we will continue to see these trends, and more people will eventually jump on the bandwagon of using social networking sites for an array of activities.

After my experience with Twitter I have learned a lot of great uses for this social site. Whether I use the website to obtain bits of news, information about events, or to keep up on the celebrity gossip, something always keeps my attention. Twitter allows users to keep in contact with your friends, family, and favorite celebrities or athletes. I have also learned that Twitter is a good way to get our name out for potential employers. Many businesses will tweet about positions and openings available within their company. I have used my twitter account, http://twitter.com/#!/mkloewer, for interacting with friends and meeting new people. I plan to keep my account to use in the near future for employment and contacting family members.

While reading the article http://www.balkhis.com/twitter/25-reasons-why-someone-should-join-twitter/, I learned a few more ways that we can use Twitter. By using the site, we can learn so much more about a person and their feelings and experiences. Many people have used Twitter as a primary source of becoming an entrepreneur and following ideas that were inspired by others or even ourselves. One last example that Twitter is beneficial, is that it can save us money. By using Twitter rather than text messaging, we can save on our phone bills.

All in all, I have enjoyed the experience of using Twitter. I will continue to use the social networking site for all of the reasons described above. Peace Love Go Pack.
