Anyone up for the word TWITHEAD??!

I've created a Twitter account for John, so I'm hereby dubbing his 'followers' TWITHEADS. :P

http://twitter.com/johnwschlitt

And yes, HE, the Schlittmeister, will be "tweeting" or "twitting" or whatever you want to call it! It kind of does make me laugh, because we all know how John feels about computers.... lol

But he will be sending out short little reports on a regular basis, so if you're into this kind of thing - check it out and sign up!

Here's some info if you're not familiar with Twitter -- I'll be sending out a newsletter on this shortly:

What is it?
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate
and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent messages.
People write short updates, often called "tweets" of 140 characters or
fewer. These messages are posted to their profile or blog and sent to
their followers.

In practical terms - you subscribe to "follow" John by signing up (via
the web or text message). On a regular basis John (yes, John!) will drop
you a short note about what he's doing, what's going on and what's new on his website. You can choose to receive these updates as a text message on your phone or on your own Twitter web account.

Here's a great step-by-step video that explains how to create your own
account and subscribe: http://help.twitter.com/portal

I'd rather be a leader.

I set the trend with my following though, thereby making me a leader.

This is true... you are the first follower from The Zone.

John will start posting.... er... 'tweeting' shortly! In fact, he was ready to go last week but I hadn't announced it yet so he had to hold off. Unbelievable - John was ready to do something computerized before I was ready... it will never happen again!

But we're all set up now.

Funny.... I'm surprised you, Jon, haven't latched on to this one yet:

Picture a TWEET and a SCHLITT in the same sentence... are ya following?

When John gets Twitter mastered, the next step is twitpic.

Jonathan has had some interesting pictures. I like the new one; Maelyn is a beautiful baby. And I think twithead is a riot. Hey, it's no worse, and in some cases not as bad as some of the stuff that's been posted here. :P

I meant bad as in shaking my head and laughing at the bad pun, not as in it being like some of the garbage that pops up from time to time. I can't argue with you there Shell.

I posted about the birth in the Other Topics forum a couple months ago. Shame on you for not stalking the members of this board like the rest of us do, Sue.
