Self Twitter Ban

So I’ve banned myself from Twitter for the weekend. I’m pretty much staying offline too! I’ll likely be casually checking email and Reader, and if you catch me on Skype (billdeys) I’m more then happy to chat but don’t count on it. I not out of contact, you can still get a hold of me, just email!

I’m doing it as a bit of a test of myself and just to decompress and step away from the hustle. I’ll be back full force, and maybe more force, Tuesday morning!

Anyways, I’ve been thinking a bit about social media things in general and one of the first things I’ve noticed is how well I’ve trained my brain to think about Twitter. I’m always thinking “Oh I should tweet that!” I’m thinking they should change their line from “What are you doing right now?” to “What are you thinking right now?” I realize that that is how I use Twitter. A small part of the way I use it is what I’m doing, it’s so much more what I’m thinking about. I use it to push ideas out and talk to people about it!

Now you will see a tweet about this but it’s automatic! I’m NOT on twitter!

Bye for now, maybe I’ll blog more this weekend if I’m not on Twitter! We’ll see!
