It’s now long time since I was writing anything here. Since last post I’ve got a child and I’m actually on my last (initial) paternal leave today, on Monday I will be back at work again. For the last month I’ve only worked two days! Life is hard.

For this last month I’ve really tried hard to get into the “Twitter thing”. The initial questions where like “Why Twitter?”, “What’s in it for me?”, “What’s in it for anyone?” and so on…

So what is the result after a month? Do I like Twitter? Is it useful for me? I guess the answers all will be YES. Twitter can be really good as long as you just follow girls/guys which have anything interesting for ME to listen to. This means that I probably not should follow famous media people from television…which I was initially trying to.

So right now I am following users which have something to say about programming, software, gadgets (of course) and Swedish politics (and some friends as well). This means that most of (or at least a lot of) the tweets popping up in my Twitter app(*) is really interesting.

Conclusion: Twitter is really good, if you are very careful when you choose who to follow.

(*) I think Twitter gets much more useful if you have it close to you at all time and can have a quick look at it in a spare second. So for me this means that I really need a good iPhone app. I really recommend TwitBird, don’t really know why there is any other iPhone Twitter app out there…(the free version is good enough)

So, see you on Twitter!
