Does this mean I'm a twit?

I gave in. I tried to resist the Twittering craze, initially, but found my resistance slowly eroded after hearing etsian after etsian rave about how much they loved it.

Of course, my initial resistance was not entirely principled--unless you count "fear of another time sink addiction" as a principle, that is. But I could--and did, to some family members--make very highfalutin arguments against Twitter, revolving around the rapid disappearance of private life, our willingness to facilitate that, and blah blah blah.

Apparently, I am full of hot air. Then again, that's probably not news to any of you. It's definitely not news to my cats; that must be why they like to be so near me during the winter time--free heat ;)

So now I'm wondering--how many of you Twitter, and enjoy reading Tweets? What kind of tweets would you like to see from me? You can check out my twitter page here.

Feel free to leave your twitter id here in a comment if you're a regular reader of my blog. If you're not, sorry, tough cookies, no spam twitter promoting allowed because I'm a big mean bully. Or something like that. :p

p.s. (added a few hours after the initial post) I made my own Twitter widget to match my blog--it's on the left--let me know what you think of it (I used a portion of a new design I've been working on)
