Until this semester, my use of twitter has remained pretty non-existent. I did not fully understand the point to it at first and found myself bored when scrolling through the site. Comparing it to Facebook, I did not understand. For people who never update their status on Facebook, what is the point to a Twitter? However, lately I log in to Twitter for many reasons. Something I have learned to be very valuable is following The Big 12 Conference No, I am not a die hard college football fan but I do enjoy when our OSU Cowboys are at the top. So lately, when I am not near a television, I log into twitter to receive play by plays of any game, anywhere going on in the Big 12 Conference. It is a great way to keep updated and learn a little more about where Oklahoma State stands. But don’t worry, next week I do plan on attending the OSU/OU Bedlam game in person. Sorry twitter, I just don’t think you would compare to that kind of atmosphere.
Also, music is such a passion of mine and following some of my favorite artists such as Cross Canadian Ragweed, Luke Bryan, Eli Young Band, Miranda Lambert and Lady A keeps me updated on upcoming concerts, events, albums and singles. I enjoy following some of my favorite radio stations in the Stillwater and Dallas/Fort Worth locations to keep in touch with shows arriving in those areas.
Twitter is an increasingly popular social media site and caters to people for both the entertainment and education aspects. In my opinion, it is the fastest way to receive information and current data. I do see it growing extremely large and serving as a main source of news for the public.
