I have 1 follower and its Rafe?!
Jan 11, 2008 5:29AM PST

I set up a Twitter account a long time ago because I heard Tom, Molly and Veronica talking about it from SXSW. I never really use it but several months later I was surprised to find out I have a follower. I looked at who it was and it was Rafe Needleman?! Maybe he felt bad for me? I only have 1 update that reads "Listening to BOL".

Jan 30, 2008 9:06PM PST

I started yesterday, after putting up for like 3 months of hearing the BOL and TWIT crew always mentioning it. Im loving it, and i have it connected to facebook so it updates that. But so far im only tracking the BOL crew...and i have no geeky friends who use it..tho i am desperatly trying to find friends who will.

So my story is that after the two or however many years it's been since first hearing about twitter on BOL, I finally gave in and signed up for a Twitter account. (Oprah had no effect on me, I swear!) Anyway, problem is, like so many of you, I have no other friends geeky enough to use Twitter. That being said, I'm glad there's all of you fine folks, who I hope to be able to strike conversation with, you know, other than following all of those celebs.

Anyway, I've been a listener from the very early days and other check up on the forum every once in a while. Twitter, however, feels so much easier. Right now, my only follower is the automated TwitterTipBot. (*crickets*)

Feb 4, 2008 8:32PM PST

I am the ONLY person I knew who Twittered.... until I saw this thread. okay okay, so I heard about twitter from Molly et al (like that Mol?) but its been a tumbleweed of existence out there for me. Most of my tweets have been "hello? (hello hello helloooo)"

Well, I've followed some folks on this thread, and now here's MY page http://twitter.com/christophmcleod

Just signed up at Twitter 4 days ago. Being followed by Sony, EMI, Victory, FM radio, ClearChannel and Ellen DeGeneres fanclub, just to name a few. I am not sure this is typical for everyone who 'tweets', but it seems somewhat surreal.
