@captainstardust @amypalko i only speak the truth =) also i heartily second @joannayoung’s answer! for example you introduced me to her.
Since joining Twitter over a year ago, I have fallen head over heels with tweeting. I love the fast pace, the lively conversations and the open friendliness of the community. I regularly tweet updates on all kinds of topics as well as sharing links, pictures, and news of both a personal and professional sort.
If you’re not quite sure what Twitter is all about, check out this Scottish Television news clip of the Edinburgh Twestival (you can see me being interviewed at 2min 16sec and again at 2min 53sec):

You can also connect with me elsewhere across the net:
I have a personal blog called Less Ordinary and a professional blog, which you are currently visiting.

Well, I’ll check these social media sites you’re in later. Just drop by to say hi and see your new blog. I’ve followed you already in twitter.
I’m off to write a post now. Darn, today is my schedule to post one.
Nice meeting you, Amy.
