To tweet or not to tweet, that is the question!

So perhaps it's time to embrace Twitter. I've had my account for quite a while now but to be fair I've found it more of a time waster than a resource. While I have found useful information from a variety of sources, I feel you would need to be on it virtually 24/7 to get any real value from it. The problem as I see it, is that the useful information is that which is immediate. So unless you are checking you feed at ten minute intervals then you will miss most of that information. As time goes on we are expected to embrace more and more devices and technologies and frankly I just don't have the time to bother.

So I've decided to try to use my mobile twitter application on a more regular basis to see whether or not it really enhances my information gathering ability.

I'll also keep my twitter page open at all times while online. I think in this realm it's a much more useful tool because you can flick back and forth to it with less interruption to other tasks.

So time will tell. At least for now it is TIME TO TWEET!
