OK Twitter, You Win

Recently, I blogged that I just didn't "get" Twitter. To me it seemed filled with updates from individuals starring in their own movie "I can't decide between Fruity Pebbles and Cap'n Crunch this morning -- it's going to be a long day". I just didn't need that additional noise in my queue, even from close friends.

Then I attended Terry Storch's session at our DC08 conference. He opened my eyes to the legitimate business uses of Twitter. So who am I to question a Digerati? So despite my initial misgivings a number of the FT Staff are going to dip our toes in the Twit. There are many, but some notables to follow are:

I LOVED Terry's session! SO relevant to helping the church "connect" with the world... I'm not a true techie, and sometimes feel like I'm so far behind I'll never catch up, but Twitter is pretty amazing.  I'm working on educating the people in my circle - not sure they buy into yet, but maybe they'll thank me later when they are at least familiar with the terminology/concepts.  Thankz F1 for bringing Terry into the mix this year!
