It’s totally changed the way I blog…I find I’m more a one-liner kind of guy, and so my blog has suffered a bit for that.

I see the two almost always going hand in hand. Twitter feeds traffic to the blog; blog allows expansion. .-= Michael Werner´s last blog ..Tech tools, holiday activities, and more! =-.

Taking a long Twitter-free weekend. Back on St. Patrick’s Day. We’ll see how that goes.

Thanks, everyone, for the input. I find that Twitter is wicked valuable for all of the reasons mentioned above – links to interesting stuff, serendipitious connections to others and to important programming and learning opportunities, etc. But I do have a hunch that stay in touch there leads me to neglect this space, in part due to time, in part due to repetition, as Aaron mentions.

So I think I might just take a Twitter time out – from posting – and see what that does for me on the blog end. I might discover that I really am not blogging more because I don’t have anything to say. Or because it’s too complicated to create a blog post for a sentence or two of entry (probably not).

Maybe I won’t take a timeout. Gee whiz – this is a tricky decision.

I can’t speak for others, but I’ve noticed that if I’ve already said it on Twitter or Pownce I’m hesitant to repeat myself in a blog entry – even though in a blog I’m able to expand greatly on my 140 character thought snippet.

Something tells me that while we are all here filling up Bud’s blog (and not twittering ourselves) that he is in the twitterverse having a ball. Perhaps there is some method to his madness?

We are indeed twittering less now, but growing Bud’s blog, not our own! Hahaha! Now that’s the power of persuasion! Just kidding, of course (I think).

Have to agree with those that are blogging less because of Twitter. But, I still read heaps of feeds from my RSS who aren’t in Twitter. I guess it’s all about time – not enough of it!

I see blogging and Twitter going well together. I started some blogs early and then they found themselves on the back burner. Now with Twitter, I have learned of several new applications, readings, and developed great connections. It is those items that have gotten me to start up my blogs again and establish a podcast series that will be centered on students and the technology projects they complete. I am in hope of the podcasts being a motivation for my school district teachers to take advantage of our 1:1 program and all the other technology advances currently in place.
