What do you mean you don’t twitter?! I was talking with Ray, a good friend of mine, and I couldn’t understand why he doesn’t twitter. I thought to myself, he is an interesting individual the world needs a chance to see the world through his eyes; but he doesn’t twitter.

Do you know about Twitter? Here, look to your right. No, not at the pictures. Below that. Those simple little blurbs are my contributions to my Twitter community. Now, there is nothing fantastic there, but that’s the point. Whether you are average Joe, an Indie Musician, or someone cool, there are actually people in the world who are interested in your life.

Here’s the thing! Life happens in the mundane detail. The cool thing about twitter is that it emphasizes the point that a person is interesting because of the views they take, the way they react to things, and the places they go to and from. Do you see what I mean?

Oh, and if you try to tell me that you don’t have time to twitter, please. It takes less than 30 seconds. If you don’t have time to say what you’re doing right at the moment you are trying way to hard to sound awesome. You might not be awesome if you have to try to make it sound like you are. Sorry.

You are interesting simply because you are doing what you do. We don’t care what it is. If we are friends its just cool to know who you really are. And I easily have 500 more things to say about all this but I have to get to a paper that’s due—it is finals week and I am behind. Are you on twitter yet? If you aren’t than tell me why?
