I signed up and started getting tweets & making my own tweets (and getting made fun of by my friends for talking about tweets) thinking it was going to be a less complicated form of Facebook. Turns out, I've gotten so much more out of Twitter than I would have thought.
I just realized that when I came across some guys posting from the C309 Conference. Now, I didn't know what the heck that was until I clicked on the #C309 hashtag (there's a lot to learn, but don't worry). So, I get to the Twitter search for C309 (oh, it's the Creative Church Conference) and everyone is posting little quotes from, I'm assuming, the guy who's speaking. I literally felt like I was right there.
In addition to this type of thing, I've gotten so many great links. I'm primarily following folks in the educational technology & ministry fields, and every hour or so, I check out my tweetdeck (my friends laugh when I talk about that, too) and find some great links, pictures, and words of encouragement.
So, the bottom line is, I'm sticking with it. I'm not sure if it's even been a month yet, but I'm sold. Sign up and get in on the action. Join me here.
One warning. I have some friends (the podcast crew minus me & Ame) who thought it would be funny to create Mark the Youth Guy on Twitter and start following me. Turns out Mark was a real fan of the Leader Lounge. He was a huge fan. In fact, if I had taken the time to look at his Twitter page, I would have seen that that's all he talked about. He loved the Leader Lounge podcast so much, he recommended our podcast to everyone even in seminars he was teaching. Yeah. I got real excited about Mark and the rest of the guys got a real kick out of me getting real excited. We can all have a huge laugh about it on the next podcast. It was actually very funny.
