Who'd Have Known Twitter is Useful

I'm just a jokin' with that title...

Other than the fact that I haven't quite fallen in love with the idea of summing up my thoughts in 140 characters or less, Twitter is very useful. (At least for Haiku poets. I write novels, so Twitter is always a bit of a challenge.)

Still, today I found a marvelous use for Twitter and I'll share my experience...

I found the site http://buzz.trazzler.com/ where you can track tweets about popular travel destinations. This morning I was going to drive over to Yosemite and spend today and tomorrow wandering about. But on Trazzler Buzz I saw a post from another tweeter who knew today is free at Yosemite. For me, going to Yosemite on a free day would be the worst possible nightare. I don't like crowds, and even a quiet day in Yosemite is crowded.

Thanks to Twitter, I'm relaxing at home intead of out in nature!

How goofy is that?

Zazzlers: From what I can see, Trazzler Buzz displays some of the latest tweets that talk about the most popular travel destinations ... all over the world. When you're using the auto-tweet system on Zazzle, chose the create your own description because so they keywords involving travel destinations have a better chance of being picked up by this site.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
