To Twitter or not to Twitter

I don't usually jump on board with the social networking phenomena. I had myspace several years after it started, then I deleted it (then got it again for band updates). My friends freshman of college made me get facebook (i had no idea what i was when i came into college). I didn't start a blog until almost 2 years after they became big.
Now Twitter! Originally I thought the idea behind twitter was stupid. Who cares about what I did today or an currently doing. I had facebook status updates thats all i needed. But recently I've been warming up to the idea. It would be kind of cool to post little updates about what I'm doing. For example, when I was waiting in the rain for brand new I could have posted an update. Because even with facebook updates it doesn't compare to Twitter. Plus if you update your status more than once or twice a week, people get annoyed, and its just unnecessary.
Part of me feels like Twitter would be something I use for a couple months then get sick of it. Plus I don't need another distraction online....facebook and this blog is enough. So we will see what happens in the coming weeks. We will see if I cave or if I hold out.
