Why I Oughtta

I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with my Twitter feed.

Previously, I had vigorously opposed the communications tool — claiming that it was a useless gimmick. I still remain skeptical of most uses of the Twitter feed.

But this still leaves me with the question of what I do with mine. I had a few ideas:

• Adopt an alter ego and always write to my Twitter feed while in character.
• Only use my Twitter feed to describe one thing. — What I eat. What I’m listening to. Things I see on the street.
• Random bits of correspondence I get taken out of context. — Although that might get me in trouble at some point.
• Factoids. — But I don’t come across many of those.  And I’m not all that interested in facts to begin with.
• Tweet only in verse.

So far, though, I think the only direction I’ve taken thus far would be classified under “ramblings of a madman.”  This has been accomplished so far with my third update, which was simply “I’m a bird!!!!”  I could consider going further down this avenue with things like “Polio was the result of a conspiracy by the Canadians!”

That will get tiring though.

I will probably strike a balance between all of these.  Even the verse one.
