All aTwitter

OK, I must be getting old. I signed up for Twitter probably almost a year ago when I was at the cool festival in Austin.  Since that time I have probably updated my status maybe 4 times.  I keep getting these emails saying that this one and that one is now following me on Twitter.  I couldn't understand why anyone would want to follow me?  Last night I went to dinner with Mitchell and Scott Converse (who just launched a new company called Medioh, more on that later), after which we went back to Scott's studio and recorded a really fun podcast.  They both started talking about Twitter and how I am not active and am just missing the boat on this.

So bowing to peer pressure, this morning I have downloaded the twhirl desktop client and ceTwit for my Windows mobile phone and am all aTwitter.  I see some people I am following and will try to follow all the people who follow me.  Lets see what all the Twitter is about.  Will report back to you if I just don't get it or is it really that cool.  Until than feel free to Twitter me at ashimmy.

It is always fun recording a podcast in person rather than virtually. Mitchell is getting me the file to edit, but being live brings a whole new level to Mitchell and I interacting.  Plus Scott was our guest, so the three of us had a blast.  Afterwards I realized the diet Pepsi I was drinking was Pepsi MAX, so maybe the extra caffiene had something to do with it!
