Now, however, that more and more people are adding all of us as contacts, I’m noticing that jumping in here and there isn’t very productive. I am rarely engaged or responded to by anyone because they are already knee-deep in conversations.

I kinda miss the intimacy of the smaller community. But I love the information sharing of the larger community.

@Mary-Frances Main – I totally agree! Blogs v. Twitters can be very different! I actually think I’m probably better at Twitter, because it keeps me concise! Just jump in with the @’s tho – the worst that will happen is someone will just ignore the @… and then you can either try again, or move on to someone more open to conversing! I try hard to respond to @’s to me – unless they’re things that really don’t need a response like “yeah I agree!”

@Kim Dushinski – that’s a very good point! I’m glad you get the chance to guest post – and you know I really appreciate your interaction on Twitter!

@BGreen – thank you! it’s nice to be included in that group. I do know what you mean about how Social Media changes not only our use of the internet, but our outlook in general. Some of the people I consider the most cherished in my life are those I’ve met online over the years and thru socmed. It’s like finding friends without being hampered by geographical proximity!

@David Sandusky – I haven’t read the Inc Mag article – going to have to go hunt that down, thanks for the heads up!
I’m not sure which tweet it was that lead you hear (someone blogged about me? I’m clueless!) but I’m certainly glad you are here!
Are we connected on Twitter as well? One of the disadvantages I’m finding is that I know someone is on Twitter – but finding them on there often requires other information – like branding or knowing a userID they’ve used elsewhere.
Still – I’ve met the most amazing folk in the Denver/Boulder area as well that are knee-deep in this social networking – and have to wonder how long (if ever) it would’ve taken me to find them w/o Twitter.

I may be part of the new surge on twitter having heard and seen twitter, but not participating until the Inc Mag article last month…thought it would be fun to tweet about it! My addiction is starting…talking about it on Your Brand Radio and posting about it like you…

I like that I found you via Scott’s tweet to his blog about you…and we are both in Denver;)

I, too, have wondered about the separate accounts, but have decided to stick with just one. This week in fact it proved smart.

On Sunday I posted about leaving to go to my daughter’s equestrian vaulting. Had I had separate accounts I would have posted this to my personal one. However, what happened is that @charpolanosky, someone who would have been associated with my “business” account, asked me to guest post on her blog about girls sports. I would have missed this.

Also, I find that one of the things I love about Twitter is getting to know people holistically – a bit about their work, a bit about their personal life. The people I follow who only post about work are not as interesting to me as those who mix it up a bit.

And, as always, I love interacting with you GeekMommy on Twitter. You enrich my Twitter and my life.
