Hello Interwebz!

Hey there!

What’s that you say? You wish you had someone to keep you up-to-date with the latest happenings in pop culture and entertainment? Maybe someone who finally shares the same political views? Or how about someone whom you can relate to in more ways than one???

Well stop you sulking around and look no further! As a result of my insomnia, at least one of your three wishes will be granted… hey I’m not a genie folks! Here you will find plentiful reviews, recommendations, rants, and much more.

Has my teenage wit and charm won you over yet?
No? Well go check out my stuff anyhow

To Tweet or Not to Tweet

Oh Twitter… how can I be expected to dumb down my epic exciting life to fit into 140 characters!?!

Yes, we all ask ourselves this question when pondering the idea of getting a twitter. I first created one to “follow”(to quote Ellen “and I still don’t know where we’re going”) a few of my friends and celebs . Literally there were only 3 or so accounts I had heard of.  But I, like most attempting to deal with the advances in modern technology, was reluctant to actually tweet. I mean really guys, who the hell cares what exactly you are doing this very moment? And say you were to do something worth updating the world about, why would you pause to tweet about it?

Well, I’ll just come right out and say it…. there is no answer to these questions. Yeah yeah, you were right, give yourself a pat on the back and the ol’ grin-and-wink. Now let’s move on.

Once you get past your smarty pants attitude (that’s right, I’m insulting you), you will come to realize the overwhelming power it has. The idea that people actually care about what you have to say begins to appeal to you, and your tweets/updates aren’t just about your lame life but rather sharing common interests, and, and…. And before you know it, you’ve fallen in love. You get excited when a celeb RT’s you, or when your favorite “underdog” of the site PMs and follows you. You love knowing that you’re whoever you want to be on the Internet. Whatever you choose to be out there people will believe.  Sure there’ll be up’s and down (such as loosing half your followers every month due to the site’s spam cleaning — not that I speak from experience), but after a good 6 months you realize it’s a wonderful creative outlet and you’re not afraid to tell people that.

So the consensus? Beware. It’s most definitely an addiction and it’s not going away anytime soon. Once you get hooked to Twitter, there is no limit to the over-exposure of your life on the web. Be prepare to fork up 10 bucks for that Twitterific pro app on your iPhone, or for that web hosting fee for your new ”hit web show”. In my opinion, twitter is for us teens :P

Here are some of my favorite tweet-ers:

BarackObama (love him, hate him, doesn’t matter he’s the pres)

Boburnham (comedian from YouTube)

Mememolly (also a youtuber, interesting words of wisdom)

Sims (Not the game the guy, Andrew Sims for all the fangirls out there, he’s “the man” of every fandom)

CNN (for the liberals)

Foxnewsradio (for the conservitives

Aplusk (Ashton Kutcher, currently #1 followed)

IMDb  (for entertainment updates)

JohnCleese (“that Monty Python guy”)

and MileyCyrus (no seriously, it’s pretty hilarious to hear her obnoxious whining sometimes)
