A fair time ago in a galaxy pretty similar to our own, infact on a planet named Earth funnily enough .. I signed up for twitter.com. Twitter is a social status site .. maybe i should have read their .. what is twtitter page …
Twitter is a community of friends and strangers from around the world sending updates about moments in their lives. Friends near or far can use Twitter to remain somewhat close while far away. Curious people can make friends. Bloggers can use it as a mini-blogging tool. Developers can use the API to make Twitter tools of their own. Possibilities are endless!
It’s actually kind fun .. and I only have one friend on it right now .. thanks Eric. I can see it being entertaining if more people i know use it and I have them added .. knwoing what people are doing and how they are .. at any given moment.
Now I must admit .. I haven’t actually had it working properly yet .. and I am not sure why .. however .. I know I am close !
You see Twitter can be updated by either the web interface at twitter.com, phone, IM or a desktop widget of your choice .. Interesting you say. Well yes, originally I gave up as twitter didnt work with Cayman cell phones .. it may just have been me getting things wrong in retrospect .. however .. I saw a blog about it on Erics site so went back to try again on a whim .. well now they had IM .. and Phone .. and there were some desktop widgets around the place .. cool !
This time I got the phone working .. or at least I got it authenticated .. I had seen one udate made by me using pone text .. but don’t know how .. and now even though authenticated again, I can’t get updates sent to my phone .. nor can i update by sending and SMS .. IM .. I can send update from .. but have never recieved an update on it .. I today find out that IM is down .. so that may have been where my problem was.
Desktop widget working fine .. but i don’t like it ..
Anyways .. if you want some fun .. come and procrastinate on twitter.com ! http://twitter.com/caymaniac
