Well, I finally capitulated on Twitter. I’ve never had anything against Twitter, or those who tweet. I just don’t get it.
But I had no idea how to start a website a few months ago either and I did that. So, with a friendly nudge from Tom at Canadian Finance Blog, I joined a few days ago. I’m taking the “try it” approach that I advocated for financial wellness in my Green Eggs and Ham post.
Yes, I’m what the marketing folks might call a very slow adopter. If you read Friday’s Book Review, I mentioned that I’m also a very slow reader. I’m a slow writer too. Come to think of it, I’m pretty slow at a lot of things. I’m not sure I like the intellectual connotations of the word slow, so I think I’m going to call myself deliberate instead. 
I still don’t know what I’m doing, so if I accidentally violate some kind of Twitter etiquette over the next couple of weeks, please cut me a little slack. I assure you it’s purely accidental. Tom @CanadianFinance has mercifully put his hat in the ring as my first follower. If you care to join him, I’m @BalanceJunkie.
What do you think of Twitter? Do you have any good tips or advice for a Twitter newbie?
Thanks for the mention 2 Cents! I’m sure you’ll love twitter once you get used to it. Once everyone is following you, it can be a great way to network with other bloggers and help promote each others posts!

Excellent!! Please… just promise not to say hello, etc. all the time or tell me what you’re eating. It’s not that I don’t like you… I just don’t care. I thought I’d be honest
. Cheers!

I promise – no idle chatter or minute by minute accounts of my day!
Good luck with Twitter! I, too, am a newbie and still don’t really get it. Maybe us 40 year olds have thicker heads.

Thanks Jim. I’m glad I’m not the only new dinosaur on the block!
Thanks very much for mentioning Balance Junkie in your article. I’m very proud to have made the list!
