could someone explain "twitter" to me. I don't get it at all. It seems like its just an "away message" like on aim, or a "status message" like on facebook. Whats the point? Someone help me understand.

A lot of bloggers use twitter to let everyone know they posted a blog. With certain widgets and the click of a button, it will automatically update your twitter page with a link to your blog. Bloggers use it to build their reader base in short.

I have pretty much the same thoughts as you. It really is just an "away message". Here's an article on it:

There are several comments here about being careful not to offend anybody in your blogs. Certainly good advice to not make your prospects mad at you, but I'd argue that being honest and authentic in your writing will always beat being salesie or sounding like you're marketing. If you can use your blog to show people that you're a human, that you have opinions, and that you care, they'll begin to feel like they have a relationship with you.
This is a totally different industry, but I read about a man today who started a one-person software company five months ago and just passed $100k in sales. His biggest source of PR (and thus his sales) was his blog, where he's completely transparent about his company, his goals, and even his financials.

Sometimes, the oddest articles get you some business. This collection of goofiness earned me a client this weekend.

haha, very nice. do you get many views on your blog? I am putting my articles on mine just to get some content up there, but will probably start writing a bit more "relaxed" posts on a day to day basis.

prime example of seo gone WRONG. even with a good SE ranking, you still need content for your viewers.
