earlier today i wrote my first “proper” blog post for carsonified. i can’t tell you how nervous i was when i pressed publish. i love blogging. i’m passionate about it and i’m so grateful for the people that subscribe to my site. however randommel.com isn’t like any other site. it’s random. it’s my random unedited thoughts and i kind of like leaving it that way. but writing for carsonified where the audience might not realise *just* how random i am was kind of weird. not knowing how much mel is too much mel is quite a concern, but i eventually pressed publish and put it out there for the world!
the blog post looks at the different uses of twitter depending where in the world you are and how and who you access using the app. i really enjoyed writing about twitter as it’s a site that i love and use lots (i’m not sure why i’m telling you that, there’s always one of my tweets flying around the twitterverse!).
whilst researching tweets for the post, i started to look at some of my favorite tweets and thought that it would be quite amusing to share them with you…







i’d love to see the tweets you love… maybe leave a link below?
i hope to be back with the videos next week, working on mixing it up a little (wouldn’t go as far as to promise spoken words might actually be used though).
happy friday!

As a result of your post I’m all signed up for twitter. Not sure if that’s going to change my life though, since I’m only listening to you at the moment!
Oh well, we’ll see.

Hey Mel, great article at Carsonified which appears to have swallowed my comment. Basically I was just wondering what you think Obvious will eventually do to monetise Twitter?

Hey Mel. I just found your site (randomly clicking on twitter profiles, coincidentally). I have a question for you that I was going to email to you, but I can’t find any contact info! I promise I’m not trying to sell you something…Just wanted to pick your brain a little.
Feel free to email me if you have a chance. If not, it’s all good. Take care!
