    Not at all, actually, you're one of the ones that are included in that statement!

    I have 33 Twitter friends as of this posting. Of those 33, 22 of them I've never met in person, and another 6 don't represent people, just programs or web sites that representatives post updates about. I've only met 5 of my Twitter friends in person, and out of that group, one posts regularly, one just joined this morning, and the other three appear to have tried it for a while, then abandoned it (not arguing with or angry at that, it's entirely their prerogative).

    If you want to try it out, sign up for an account and add me. If you decide it's not for you, hey, your call, no biggie. :)
