Just wondering if any of you out there Twitter? I'm basically in love with it! If you don't know what it is, it's basically micro-blogging. Or if you're familiar with facebook or myspace, it's just "status updates". And that's all. Nothing fancy. There's a link to mine in my sig, but you need an account to see it cuz mine's private Sorry, but definitely check it out! And feel free to "follow" me!

IDK, my bff Jill?

http://twitter.com/iacas is me.

And you don't just need an account to see your posts, Michelle, you need to be approved by you. Somewhat different thing. As a general rule, a lot of people don't follow people with protected updates.

Yes, I meant if I was to approve you, you'd need an account anyway

Well no one needs to be shy! I'll approve anyone! As long as you're not selling anything...

No one else Twitters? What do you all do when it's cold and snowy out?! Oh I guess some of you are lucky enough to be warm all year round

I have an account that I barely use. http://twitter.com/uclashindig

Maybe I'll get in the hang of it.


But you know who else has Twitter accounts that people on this board might be interested in reading? Stewart Cink and Parker McLachlin. How cool is that?

Ha. Sorry. With the Ben Hogan picture that just makes me think that is probably what Hogan would say. Too bad, you are missing out on random updates from your friends - unless you use: facebook, myspace, email, telephone...

Hell, no.

I thought that at first too...but it definitely is beginning to become more useful the more I use it. One thing I currently use it for is news/search in real-time. Others that have thousands of followers use it for crowdsourcing. Some use it as a bookmarking tool. Some use it as a to-do list a la rememberthemilk. Some just want to be heard (even if noone is listening).

Most will simply tell you to just start using it and its benefits become clear. Most probably did start that way.

:P

Yep, but I'm in marketing and social media is an element of marketing.

I don't tweet yet. I noticed all the most well known golfers have Twitter account suspended. Probably Twitter squatting going on there.

It just seems like a hassle to me... I don't really care if too many people know what I'm up to any given day. Plus, it would be one more thing I never look at just like my facebook and myspace acounts... which I haven't checked in several months.

It just seems like a hassle to me... I don't really care if too many people know what I'm up to any given day.

But how will people know that you are wondering what shoes to wear?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Twitter > Facebook. I just like it cuz it's simple, and actually very imformative. If you have the Space and Facebook, you might as well try Twitter

hehe.

I'm starting to prefer twitter too - though I have my tweets sync up with my facebook status.

    • I don't think anyone will really care.   It's your call.  Just be consistent.
    • I agree, until we are watching the 18th hole in the dark or waiting for the champion to finish and it's been 5+ hours
    • Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though. 
    • This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.
    • I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
