I know, this is suppose to be a blog on Commercial Real Estate, not a technology blog (and we know we have enough of those). However, since I've recently started using Twitter, I've been thinking about blogging vs. twittering.
I find myself twittering more than I blog. I think it something about being able to dash off a quick message (and it has to be quick since you only has 140 characters), rather than sitting down and actually writing about something. (I use to be an mechanical engineer, so 140 characters is just about right.) I think that this is the main reason that I find myself twittering more and no, I don't twitter about what I had for breakfast.
And there's that aspect about following. There's a lot of good and bad aspects to following. The good is that you get a lot of information quickly and the bad is that you get a lot of information quick. You can easily get an overload of information with Twitter.
I use TweetDeck to group the people I follow (if you twitter, you need to check this program out). But that can also happen with blogs, so I also use Google Reader to consolidate the blogs that I follow.
So, I'll continue to do both, at least until something new comes around. LOL
If you're interested in following me on Twitter, I'm "svcomremoose".
