I agree that Twitter is a great way of promoting blog, but the this particular social networking site is not getting to me. I don’t know maybe it’s me but I just don’t feel it. People are twitting and following each other and all of that doesn’t lead to anything. Yes, in a way of blog promoting I am for, but as a social networking? I’m just not sure, seams pretty strange for me.
