My new favicon here at tbbs-land is derived from the avatar I had whilst using the Twitter. A little commemoration of an activity that I enjoyed, but was a terrible time sink for the most part.

These aside posts even come with a little graphic dealio that labels them as asides. Who knew? Anyone care for 140 character blog posts?

One of the prime reasons behind my recent Twitter fascination was that I had a little sidebar for Asides. The sidebar updated via RSS via the Twitter. I’m sheepishly embarrassed to admit it, but the blog template has a category called “Asides”, and by posting to that category, the aside appears in-line.
Old dog. New Tricks.

And tonight, I bid farewell to the Twitter, thanks to their “Delete my account” feature. The Asides updates in the sidebar are gone as well.
I have a weblog, and I’ll make my noise, and hopefully good points, here. Daily. Or every other day. Or whenever.
Thanks to all for checking up on me. I’m alive, well, and old.
I’m here.

While not abandoning Twitter, I’ve decided to be more attentive to the tbbs-land blog garden tending. I have about 1/3 the number of tweets as I have blog posts; not that any of them are all that memorable.
I suffer from BTI1 syndrome at times; sometimes my tweets want to exceed 140 characters, while conversely, my blog posts want to be more terse than that.
I gotta get things straightened out. Proper tool for the job, and all that.

All the three preceding bloglet entries were actually tweets, posted via the Twitter. The Twitter Tools plugin has an option “Create blog posts from tweets”. I tried, I didn’t like, I turned it off. I’m keeping the “Asides” via Twitter in the sidebar.
Tweeting is not blogging, nor is blogging tweeting, even though they share some similarities. In my case, they’re both just typing.

OK. The “create blog post from tweets” will be turned off shortly.
Well, OK, that worked. Color me unimpressed.
Back on the Twitter Tools bandwagon. This tweet will purportedly create a blog post.
OK, so I am a Twitter-er. I thought initially that Twitter was going to be yet another A-Lister echo chamber do nothing app. Today, I came across realestateshows, which has real estate listing tweets for places across the country.
It’s very nice for people who are moving, or who would like to. I’m firmly in the latter class, at least.
