Enjoying Twitter Maybe Too Much Yet Gaining Opportunities

For me I know that I love these things. I love instant messaging, I love things like twitter, and video games. Yes, I play video games and I always beat the kids and hubby at Mario Kart, my all time favorite. Especially DK Mountain, that rocks!

But lately I’ve been a slight bit addicted to twitter. I have spent too much time on it this week and realize that I will have to be more strict on myself for next week. There’s just so much for me to do and I cannot play until I’ve done my work.

But you know what? Twitter has been a really great business tool as well. I’ve managed to connect with online business friends, but also more importantly been available to a wider audience of people. Just yesterday my friend Kelly and I were twittering, she realized I had some free time so we jumped on an interview for her show.

That show will be published on Monday April 21st, and I’m really looking forward to hearing it. I know she said we chatted for 45 minutes.

But you know, if I wasn’t on twitter she may not have thought to ask me, or she would have emailed me later on. The key here is that we were both available and I was able to jump on a chance for more exposure for my business.

How cool is that?

I’ve always been enjoying the conversation I’m having lately with other friends, as well as finding new friends and resources that I can access.

Neat stuff.
