Apparently Twitter is the latest, greatest, most hottest thing around. And as with anything new, we're trying to come up with a language for it.
If you have Twitter and received a messaged, you've been Twittered.
If you have Twitter and send a message, you Tweet.
"Joe just Twittered me .... I'll need to Tweet him back."
I've heard stories about car rental companies and airlines using Twitter to keep their customers updated with information. I've heard stories about athletes Twittering from the sideline (something other than T.O. griping about not enough play time). On ESPN's First Take this morning, one of the main anchors was asking a guest about Twittering.
Let me just say this:
I have a phone. It rings. I have an e-mail account. It works.
The only time I'll ever Tweet is on the football field.
Just in case you thought otherwise.

A Few Words About Comments
Comments are always welcome here, but there are a few things you should know:
1) If you comment, leave a name. If you can't figure out how to log in or register or whatever the system is making you do (which, believe me, I fully understand how frustrating that can be) and you must comment anonymously . . . leave a name in the comment section. Purely anonymous comments will be deleted.
2) Comments I deem to be offensive, irrelevant, or generally trollish will be deleted. I'm mainly talking to the Akurians here. Don't make me get out my flag!
3) If you would like to receive e-mail notification of other comments so you can more easily follow a conversation (yeah, like I ever have those on this blog), you must register with Blogger. Sorry . . . I didn't have anything to do with that one.
Enjoy the game.

Without twitter I'd have no easy way to post random important information (like what I'm eating for lunch).
I learned on the Today Show that a "dweet" is a tweet sent while under the influence. I'm seriously thinking about getting Twitter before my daughter does so she won't say I'm "stalking" her and her friends, like she said when I got Facebook!

Kali: Seems like they should have called it a "dweeed."
And you're going to get Twitter? Aren't you the hip mama?
