I learned from using twitter that I like it and hate at the same time. It's so easy and simple to send a short 140 character message to the world. It's like sending a message in a bottle, but a gazillion times faster. And what happens then? Surprise: you are getting twitter followers! And that just feel kinda good doesn't it?

So what happens then? You send more tweets over twitter, you learn that getting followers is fun, and then something else occurs: you discover you can now send messages to them about your business, with links and all. And now you are not just getting twitter followers, now your sites are getting twitter traffic! Your eyes open!

And then you're hooked. You might find yourself on twitter for ages, interacting, laughing, reading, wondering, and marketing of course, as there is such a thing as twitter marketing. Twitter becomes a force for getting traffic, but also for your social life. But is this wise?

I found that I simply started to spend way too much time on twitter. Like I had no life at all apart from twitter. The excitement never truly went away, but I did start to notice that I really needed a 'twitter-break' sometimes. Take your distance for a while. Otherwise you think your happiness starts to depend on it, and that's rubbish, it doesn't. Luckily you can also twitter automatically (see at the of this article).

But is twitter bad for your mental health? I don't think so. I still feel its totally enjoyable to receive twitter messages and send them, and to get more and more twitter followers and twitter traffic. My websites are getting more and clicks from this twitter and that is pretty cool!

So I'll be going on with twitter for a while yet, and have now found ways to increase my twitter following by thousands! It's amazing. Make I'm somewhat addicted, but with taking a healthy break sometimes, all is under control.

Twitter is here to stay. So many people are using it, and so
am I. But are you wasting your time? What are you getting
out of it, or putting into it? Are you getting twitter
followers? And then what? My conclusion? Read the article.
