I Totally Caved Under Pressure

Posted on 12/15/2009 at 8:48 pm by Bob Cesca

I’m on Twitter now.

@bobcesca_go

Questions…

How do I get links to my blog posts to automatically post on my Twitter feed?

Do I seriously have to use the word “tweets?”

    To answer your question, I don’t know..But to address your recent move to twitter, its about damn time brother! I promise not to ruin your twitter experience by incessantly sending you links to “Dyslexic Asian Midget Hookers”.

    Sucker!!Not sure how to link. And I think they are tweets unless you’re talking about Sarah Palin and then they’re called twits or twats.Jennifer

    Welcome to teh twittah Bob. Once you get the hang of it, I think you’ll wonder why you waited so long. Btw, what made you cave now?

    Bob, go here:http://bit.ly/Drop the URL in the box, click, copy & paste into your tweet.Yet, it’s called a tweet.

    I suggest using Tweet Deck or Seesmic apps for both publishing and following. Clean interface without the downtime drama of twitter.com. Plus, Bitly’s URL shortener is built in. See ya’ in the Twitterverse!

    I am waiting for a nano-blogging service. I got no time for this rambling micro-blogging stuff.

    Bob…Please.Have you lost your everlovin’ mind? Twitter?sigh

    Don’t get Tweetdeck. It is very bad software that will end up consuming hours and hours of your time as you sit there following conversations and tweeting back.Actually Tweetdeck is teh awesome for following and updating Twitter and Facebook

    if you want to see what’s being said about/to you, click on the @bobcesca_go in the menu on the right hand side. And there are a lot of interesting people. You just have to pick & choose carefully.It’s actually informative/entertaining when there’s breaking news or things like the debate in the House on HCR. The SOTU speech should be fun. :) And it’s great for blowing off steam during Morning Joe (who still has me blocked. go figure)And you don’t have to use the jargon.

    [rant]The output of a service called “Twitter” is, logically, a twit.I know, people call it tweet, which might make sense if the service were dubbed “Tweeter”; i.e., one who tweets. Of course, a tweeter is a type of audio speaker and a twit… well…The English language is neither pure nor static. It does, however, have minimum standards.A shitter does not sheet. A shitter shits. A sitter may sit in a seat but does not seet. A sitter sits. A hitter may be in heat, but does not heet. A hitter hits.I could go on, but I think I’d be beating a dead horse. Perhaps with a beet. A bitter beet.[/rant]

    The revolution will not be Twittervised!Will it?There’s something disarming about someone who Tweets their outrage– social and political dissent.Kind of like Alvin And The Chimpmunks doing Public Enemy or Rage Against The Machine.”…Rally round’ the family, with a pocket full of shells…!”I kid.Go get em’, Bob!

    @ McBrink: Curse you! Now I’m gonna have some fucked up, Alvin and the Chipmunks version of ‘Bulls on Parade’ stuck in my head for about the next two weeks.

  • Rogect8

    …Adding: Though I guess it could never be worse than when those guys performed Rage songs as ‘Audioslave’ w/ Chris Cornell doing the vocals. Yikes.Wait….what were we talking about?Oh yeah…fuck twitter!

  • JDS
