I have been on Twitter for a long time and have been republishing the posts on this blog into another twitter account that I just have for fitness stuff. Good idea?Well I think I can do one better than that!

I love blogging. I love that I can write 200 or 2,000 words about any subject and then publish it for you to read….Instantly. One of the great things about using Twitter is that Twitter only allows very short messages, but it does allow links. With Twitter brevity is the only way.

The vision that I have for integrating this fitness and health blog with Twitter is that as I research things and find cool articles that are full and I do not have to comment on is that I can add the link to Twitter instead of here on the blog.

So what I am hoping to do now is to continue to write and post nice big articles here and then all of that other stuff I will just link to in my Twitter account. You get your fill here and then see other stuff over at my account on Twitter.

Looking to make a change and lose some weight? I have reviewed the top diet on the internet and you can go and read over 200 comments people have made about why this diet has worked well for them, as well as some of the problems.

There is a whole bunch of networks of bloggers out there that cover like subjects. Some cover Social Media (I follow them), some cover techie stuff (I follow them) and of course some cover fitness issues (I follow them too).

One of the blogs that I follow is a social media blog written by a fellow named Patrick out in Ohio. Social media for those that aren’t aware is everything from Twitter to Facebook and blogs in between so it really is a market that covers how to find people on the internet more than anything.

Anyway Patrick blogged today about how he is trying out for the Biggest Loser this weekend. since I do follow his blog I wanted to shout out a Good Luck to him, you can click through and read a bit of his story as well.

I have decided to start something that is a little different just as an experiment. I will keep posting here but also will add lots of other links through a twitter account so that anyone using Twitter can get even more value without my regular blog readers being buried in article links from other blogs and news sites.

I have lots of ways to have people follow this blog. Just read it, follow through RSS, signing up for a newsletter, and now Twitter.

Twitter to me is like an instant messaging or SMS system that sends messages to no one in particular across the internet. The way that Twitter is used is that you sign up and then whenever you find a person who you want to see information from then you “follow” them on Twitter.

Following on Twitter is just a matter of going to the Twitter site or using a browser plugin to be alerted whenever one of your new friends posts a message, called tweets. Read the rest of this entry »
