OF A GOLDEN AGE

Oh, Rands . . .

The problem with explaining Twitter to the uninitiated is, well, you have to say Twitter. A lot. Then you end up saying “tweet” or “twittersphere” or “twoot” and then you flash back to the embarrassing conversation with your Mom when you tried to explain what a blog was.

“No no no Mom . . . it’s an important thing.”

“What is?”

Sigh. “A blog.”

I don’t have an existing tag for Twitter since I don’t like or use it (beyond following Graham Elliot and fake Christopher Walken in my Google Reader), but autocomplete suggested “twee” and that made me smile.
