What is Twitter and How To Use it

I've had it with hearing about Twitter at Twitter.com
So I gave in -- after a bunch of invites-- dropped my PPC and CPA campaigns, and headed to Twitter and signed up ==> http://www.twitter.com/fixnow

It was a little complicated at first glance... but after a few minutes, I figured it out. Duh... Simple stuff folks. Nothing to it.

Here's how it works.
Sign up for Tweeter
You "follow" someone who uses Twitter (For example John Reese)
Everytime John makes a post (a mini post), YOU, along with thousand of others who are "following" him will be notified by IM or by cell phone etc.

It's a great new way of getting bombarded by messages by people who you're following.
Another level of noise entering our cluttered lives. As if email wasn't bad enough, then came RSS readers, Instant Messengers, Desktop Messengers and now we have Twitter.

Don't get me wrong. There are benefits to this service. For example, enter your web address on the side bar and you'll get visitors as well as some Google juice to your site.

I'll be playing with this for the sole purpose of finding out the rational behind so many people loving this. Once I'm done, I'll be sure to tell you guys about my findings.

Now go tweet!
