Twitter is for those little moments, not quite blog-worthy but maybe interesting or relevant to your “followers.” I’ve discovered some interesting and fun stuff through Twitter. But I wouldn’t be able to communicate most of my blog post ideas in 140 characters or less. Just not possible.

I use Twitter a lot to touch base with my husband when we’re off doing different things. But I know what you mean. I have heard a few bloggers talk about getting so caught up in Twitter that their blog suffers.

Not counting the last month as an example (hey, I’ve been on vacation in another state!) I don’t think Twitter is a detriment to my blog. Not only do my new blog entries get posted to my Twitter feed, but I use Twitter for more than just ‘micro-blogging’… I use it to keep in touch with my fiancee and friends (and vice versa) to know where everyone is.

We are on the same wavelength, although I have NOT signed up for Twitter. Just posting about it this morning.

I usually throw a line up on Twitter every other day; just a little thought. At first I thought about writing mundane things like "getting ready to iron." But, then I realized I don't care if people iron, so why would they care if I did. You know.

I put myself on a blog writing schedule and I find if I Twitter the off days that it actually enhances my blog, I think.

Great topic of discussion! Definitely worth talking about more in depth.

I love Twitter. I use it for more of the mundane things that I wouldn’t be meaty enough for a blog. Sometimes something happens because of Twitter that I end up blogging about.

So maybe it isn’t one or the other but deciding which info you want disseminated where.

Sorry that I can’t give you any comment on Twitter. But I do thought of finding out more as I see lots of bloggers are using it. I’m glad I read this in your blog which will make me judge better. Thanks.
