I am such a Twit!
Every now and zen when I am in between a creative undertaking, I begin to focus on how to increase my refrigerator art visibility (or is that viability?) And since putting a near naked toga clad image of myself up on YouTube didn’t seem to do the trick (ok, I am nearing 50, what could I expect 😉 ) … I decided I’d look at my web site grade and see where I could tweak my profile.
Turns out the “experts” say I need a Twitter account! Who knew? So after watching the Sorcerer’s Apprentice last night and feeling very crafty — if not also way over tired — I decided to log on to my laptop and create my very own TWITTER profile. Problem is I am a bit late to jump on the twitter band wagon and all the “good user names” were already taken.
When I was on the bleeding edge of technology in my previous life, I would be the first person to sign up for all the new killer apps and was always able to secure my preferred moniker.
Since my aim was to enhance my website profile, I wanted to use CoolKarma as my Twitter name. But of course CoolKarma was no longer available. On YouTube I had to create CoolKarmaVideo because my domain name had already been grabbed. But CoolKarmaTwitter was too long to qualify for a tweet account. It was getting late, and my sorcerer magic was beginning to fade as I considered the various options.
- CoolKarmaDOTcom?
- MsKarma?
- CoolKarmaCOM?
- MyCoolKarma?
- CoolKarmaTwit?
As it was approaching midnight, I reluctantly settled on CoolKarmaTwit … not without much hesitation and significant remorse for not being an early bird.
I completed the Twitter new account form with my full name and email address and the Plan B username I had selected and pressed the CREATE button.
When I saw the error message that the email addy I had entered was already in use I was elated! I was ALREADY CoolKarma on Twitter!! I must have signed up long ago when I was still pretending to be in the fray of technology movers and shakers.
So okay. I am now aimed to tweet and I’ve put an official follow me badge on this post!
