In the UK this morning Twitter is all over the news. Stephen Fry, Twitter user and all round Super individual appeared on Jonathan Ross yesterday and was talking about Twitter.
The news stations have jumped on the bandwagon and are debating it endlessly.
Stephen Fry twittered on about Tweeting and micro-blogging and how much he enjoys the interaction that Twitter can bring.
Anyway, the point of this post is do you Twitter?
At the moment I have 461 followers on Twitter and it seems to be growing quite regularly. You can follow me by clicking here or the little counter on the top left of the page.
What I love about Twitter now that I have the hang of it is the little snippets of peoples lives that you get to see. People Tweet about all sorts of things but I mostly interact with fellow Dog lovers. It’s great to see what Dog owners or Dogs are up to at the moment.
There are also a surprising number of Dogs with Twitter accounts. How they have learned to type is a mystery me to me but they seem to do it quite well! If you haven’t got a Twitter account yet why not give it a go.? It’s a great way to interact with people and see what is going on in the Doggie world.
Once you join you can use the search function at the bottom of the page to search for whatever topic you are interested in. You can then follow the Dogs or people that are talking about that topic.
Why not let us know your Twitter ID in the comments section below and we can all follow you and vice versa. I would love to follow some more Doggies so why not teach your Dog to type and let them loose on Twitter.
I just hope that Stephen Fry hasn’t crashed Twitter today!
May the Doggie Force be with you all.

I must admit that I am kinda addicted to Twitter. I love reading what everyone is up to.

Wow, that was quick Riayn, I just posted this a few minutes ago. I wonder how many new followers you will get?

My grey girls don’t have their own Twitter IDs yet, but we all share that one. 🙂

I usually twitter about my greyhound. I also complain about grad school, and my lack of sleep 🙂
I actually just signed up for twitter for OnePoke.com actually – I’ve yet to start following others such as yourself – but I’ve just been swamped so I have some catching up to do!! 🙂

My boyfriend has been trying to get me on Twitter for a few months now. I’m going to set up an account tomorrow.
Hi to all that added their ID.
Taris, gad you finay signed up.
Lindsay, once you get in to it it can be a great way to meet new peolpe. It brings lots of great visitors to your site as well.
Hey I’m on there now. Now I just have to get some followers!

That’s great Lindsay. What I learnt is to make a good few Tweets before folowing many people.
It puts them off if they don’t see any updates. Once you are on there for a while you can put links to your new blog posts etc. Tweetlater and Twitterfeed are also good.
Having mini conversations with people also builds up a presence.
Also I now use TweetDeck which is much easier than via the web and a lot quicker and nicer on the eye.
Look forward to Tweeting with you and I hope this helps.
Thanks a lot!
