tweet tweet tweet… are you on twitter? i know, i know, it seems like its all anyone talks about lately but its fun and minimal effort. i love sharing tweets with someone interesting and getting new followers is exciting, so i thought i’d take a moment to share some thoughts on how i use twitter, so if you follow me or want to follow me you know what to expect from me:
i work from home, so twitter is a nice way of feeling like i’m not the last person alive in a post-zombie-attack world. i tweet for fun, occasionally i tweet about this site, but i’m not really on there to pimp myself.
i value quality over quantity: he who dies with the most followers does not win in my opinion. the people i follow amuse me, or share awesome stuff, or are friendly and talk back. you’re welcome to follow me but unless i know who you are i might not follow you back right away. but don’t be sad: if you @ me a few times and we exchange some pleasantries, i’ll follow you!
i think trends like follow friday are nice and i’m always really touched when i get a mention, but i don’t do it myself so please don’t be sad if i don’t follow friday right back at ya!
and hey, i’ve made a little twitter button you can use on your blog if you’d like:
or maybe you’re after a new wallpaper for your twitter page (or desktop, even)?
i hope you like them. so now you know how i approach twitter, tell me your twitter stories! are you on there to watch the celebrity dramas unfold? are you making you presence known in the marketing circles? or is it just for larks?

Ok. I think I almost sent you a comment then. If it did actually make it to you.. I do not know about it. So, I’ll type the general idea of it again. Thanks for your patience.
Salutations! ..Wow, that was a little pompous. Anyway, greetings from Adelaide. Yep. It’s still rather bland here. Nice, but a little bland. That is why, my friend Ebony and I are heading up to Melbourne next week! Mid-term! Uni is also bland! We’re going to see Julian Casablancas perform. And I was wondering if you would, please, be able to suggest some places we could go to spend time or squander our measly amounts of cash. Please. If you can’t.. That’s ok. But know that we will spend all our money in RetroStar and on passion pop. And you’d be responsible. Uncool that I went there?
Also, I love your site. It’s fantastic. I’m sorry my comment wasn’t focusing on it more. I’m openly and subliminally suggesting it to all my friends. So, it should make the rounds through the arts sector of UniSA soon enough.
Hope you are all well! Jane and Jan send their regards also.
Love Phoebe
