Fear of Twitter

As silly as it may sound, I had a Twitter phobia. With all the demands on my time, it seemed like the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. All the mysterious talk of hashtags made shivers run down this non-techy girl's spine.

Well, I'm happy to announce I've overcome my fear of tweeting. My blogging buddy, Jill Kemerer, wrote a fabulous tutorial called, "Twitter 101: Creating an Account." I learned:

1) I don't have to own a fancy phone or text to have a Twitter account. I can tweet to my heart's content from my home PC.

2) Unlike blogging and Facebook, if I don't show up for a few days, I won't be in the doghouse.

3) The learning curve isn't as steep as I thought.

All of you who have Twitter accounts are invited to follow me at @susanjreinhardt on Twitter. And - if you're still hiding behind the sofa when someone mentions tweeting, go visit Jill.
