JBP, I also think Twitter is “kewl.” I like Twitter. I did control my addiction, of course — I gave up the narcotic.

Yeah – I’m having a similar experience. Minus the driving-traffic-to-my-blog bit.

I don’t know though – I’m getting a little frustrated learning from your experiences. I mean, I’m pretty good at making my own colossal mistakes… why do you have to go and pick the low-hanging fruit?

Oh, wait. I'd only read the Instapundit intro. Now I see you're quitting Twitter. OK, never mind what I said about the tie. Actually, it sounds as if you're doing the right thing. The guest privileges on other blogs, especially, are more substantial and meaningful. And I like the comparison with Twitter and candy. That sounds about right. Good for you and your balanced diet.

I have found both Twitter and Facebook useful for professional writing reasons. However, I fully appreciate that if you are not in new media or writing how it could be a serious time suck. Andrew Ian Dodge’s last blog post..Follow me…please
