Quick Post : And then started the Twitter madness

I've had a twitter account for some time now, but never used it. Why? Because new things scare me sometimes, especially a "complicated" thing like twitter. To a noob, it can be pretty intimidating. But yesterday, I received a notification that someone was following me on Twitter. It was Asherrylie from Priest all the things. So I went and followed her, too. Then I added stuff to my profile. And then started the madness.

See I'm super shy, and usually keeps to myself, so going and following all those people (other bloggers) was a bit of an adventure for me. I've got eight followers now and I'm happy. Ya, I get excited easily. I'm weird like that.

Being social doesn't always come naturally for me. Guess this will help me work on that. Be nice with the twitter noob, people. =P

  1. New things scare me too! And I've yet to mess around with twitter. My family tried to get me on the bandwagon so they could all spam each other with updates but I never really got into it.

    I'm glad that you are getting into it though! Seems like it could be a fun way to branch out and converse. Nothing wrong with being excited about followers! I would be too :D

    1. Man, I <3 so much! =D

      I was worried I'd do stupid stuff like respond to the wrong person or something. Bc I'm a bit, well, noob IRL. XD

      It totally feels like I'm stalking people. O.o

    2. Haha it's not stalking :) People wouldn't post things on there if they didn't want anyone in the community to see it. Also, if you want to limit what you say to people you grant access to, you can "lock" your profile, requiring someone to basically Ask you if they are allowed to follow you.

    1. My bf totally tried to convince me to use it, but I didn't want to, for some reason. It took a nice stranger to give me the push I needed.

  5. Twitter overwhelms me too. I had to make an account to participate in a Blog Azeroth event. I'm happy I did now but I'm still pretty much a lurker!
