Singing Like a Tweety Bird

Follow @AuthorRob If you haven't heard, I finally bit the bullet and joined Twitter. Over the past several years, I have grown quite accustomed to using Facebook. Twitter? That's a bird of a different color. Well, blue actually.

I am slowly gaining familiarity with how things work in Twitter land, such as hashtags. It took a few days, but my hashtag posts are finally showing up. Of course, I then find out that Facebook has had hashtags for nearly a year. Well, I guess I'm still learning Facebook also. Though, I think the value of hashtags in FB is much more up for debate.

I do find it interesting how quickly I've connected with other users of Twitter with similar views and purposes. Some of my new Twitter followers are also FB friends, but a lot aren't. Seems like Tweeters expect a much looser connection.

So, if you are on Twitter, stop by and say hi. Oh, and check out #WritingExcerpts where I will be posting one or two sentence snippets as I write the new book I'm working on. But don't worry, I won't post anything that will serve as a spoiler. Think of them more as teasers.

'Till next time.
