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.
