To Tweet or not to Tweet

I've been reading everywhere on the net and in RSS feeds that I've been following how great tweeting is and of course the place to do it is on Twitter. Twitter is all about micro blogging but its like updating your status on Facebook but its available to everyone. I'm still deciding if I should sign up for it. I don't know anyone else thats on it, but then again I haven't looked for any of my friends on it anyway.

I currently have a problem just blogging regularly, I don't know how I'd do with keeping up with Twitter. I'm quite short of my goal of 100 posts by the end of the year. I think I'm at around 60 posts but none of them have been that substantive.

I wonder if I can call tweets as part of my blogging posts? They are mirco blog posts after all but its hard to convey a lot in only 160 characters (about the limit of a text message). I'll ponder signing up for Twitter tomorrow, maybe I'll sign up and see how the thing works. I've heard that there are all sorts or protocols to conform to but thats enforced only by other people ont he service and not really by admins. I guess we'll see in the next few days if I have some time to mess with it.
