So, just wondering: how many of you have a Twitter account? And if you don't mind, I'd also be interested in knowing if you actually use your Twitter account!

By the way, YWS has a Twitter account here:
http://twitter.com/YWS_Gazette

Also, there is a reason why I'm asking, and it's not related to getting you to follow YWS' current Twitter account.

Lastly, feel free to post a link to your Twitter!

I do. I check in about once a month.
And now, time for this month's check in.

I have two, but one is for Moth and Myth, so yup! I use the Moth and Myth one most because it directly links in with the FB account I have for it.

Moth and Myth: http://twitter.com/#!/mothandmyth

Also, mine. I mostly do sports updates with it, lol.It's really unloved.

I have one! I've even added the YWS Gazette on it. I don't use it much, just to keep a couple people aware of why I'm not online. xD
I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

Wow O.o
A lot more people seem to not have one than to have one. I am not alone!!

I was sure it would be the other way around...

Heh, judging by the very low response rate (granted the poll is only 26 hours old, but we usually have 100+ votes by now), I'm guessing the 'No' percentage is actually much higher. Not too surprised though.

In any case, what I was thinking of doing was creating a Twitter account that would automatically tweet whenever someone posted a new literary work on YWS. If it was successful enough, I could segment it such that there'd be one Twitter account just for science fiction short stories, another for dramatic poetry, etc. But looking at the few 'Yes' votes and the low response rate, it's probably not worth the time. Although, I'm definitely doing it for WriterFeed.

That's a wonderful idea, though!

I obsessively check mine, and I follow the YWS Gazette. But it never really tweets anything.
Honey, you should see me in a crown.

I have one, but I never use it. Like, ever.
I didn't know what to put here so I put this.
