Twitter - FTW

I had an interesting story . . . something that happened tonight.

Tonight, I was working "Hymns of the Faith" at First Baptist Orlando. I had been tweeting with another one of the volunteers for broadcast, Michael throughout the afternoon. Unfortunately, he could not be with us tonight, because he was working later tonight. But, we were blessed with having his wife, serve with us tonight!

He was not able to get in touch with his wife to ask her a quick question. I assume he could have sent a text message or something, maybe he did, but I guess her phone was away in her purse our of her reach. Michael ended up sending me a "Tweet" to ask his wife the question. I was able to pass on the message then became the mediator between him and his wife.

It was great. So you see, Twitter is not about posting useless information, which some people live their life believing. It is about sharing information, keeping in touch with others and being informative. For all fo you Twitter haters out there, get over yourself. It can be useful and is for many many Twitter users. Don't bash something just because you do not use it. That is something that I can not stand.
