Like a lot of people I didn't really understand twitter at first. My pal Danese would talk about it or use it , and I admit I was at a loss. In my mind it was another blogging service only extremely very limited in the 140 character count. Living in the shadow of two large ridges I dont really have cell phone service at home and most of my texting experience consisted of texting friends while they were in music rehearsals or in studio so I could avoid disturbing them.
