The only thing is that you’re not letting some ppl hear you in a different environment that will probably want to. You’ve got a great take on things and you’re possibly limiting the amount of ppl who can hear it. Please reconsider twitter.

And to think Jacki was worried about upsetting people who “get” social media

The comments so far definitely show that while social media can be great both personally and professionally, it doesn’t need to be for everyone. But even if someone doesn’t use it, they can still instill a nice discussion between proponents and non-users.

Good to see.

Ahhhhh… Jacki, you’re a star!
Great great time reading your post, I’m so glad I did!
People don’t know what they don’t know! It seems obvious but it’s not.
This sort of writting you post here, just makes me sure about things I wrote on my last post ( marketingeasy (dot) net – George Clooney post)
Goodonya!

Hi Danny - thanks for your reply! I think for me, I dont *get* Twitter, and it seems like an awful time sink as far as I'm concerned. I fully accept that maybe I'm wrong, and obviously people are getting benefit out of it. Bear in mind that I'm exceptionally sceptical of the snake-oil sold on ProBlogger-type sites, because very few of them are open enough these days to show stats or back up their claims of how much traffic things like Twitter bring them!
