Its not Twitter’s fault. I’m a Natural Born Chiller

Twitter, today I will speak in support of you and against myself. Your ability to connect me to the random thoughts and activities of people who are awesome (whom I don’t know yet still follow!) is much appreciated but, alas, quite dangerous. Today, via alesh’s tweet I rediscovered that I am a Natural Born Chiller.

Spend countless minutes wandering the net I will.

Eventually, I will reach a point where I am so satisfied with my findings, that I will stop whatever I’m doing and report my finds to the world via this blog. Hence:

Not that you care, but let me interrupt myself to tell you how I use Twitter. I use twhirl as my client for several reasons. First, it’s built with {en:Adobe AIR}. Because twhirl was one of the first AIR applications that I installed on my Macbook Pro, I was hoping to be pleasantly surprised by the “richer” experience that the AIR runtime is supposed to provide. So far so good.


Secondly, I prefer using a desktop client instead of a browser-based client because

    I already have too many tabs open in my browser.
    I can quit the client to avoid constant distractions, and launch it to find the newest tweets

Point being: Regardless of my planned behavioral patterns for using Twitter, my curiosity always gets the best of me. I don’t have constant distractions, but as a Natural Born Chiller, one great tweet will take me -> two, three, four pages -< into the net and I will come out blessed with a truly sickkk find.

Bye bye undisturbed productivity. Hello awesomeness and inspiration. In my current situation — deadline looming and design unfinished, ideas unborn — which is most important?
