Merging of Two Separate Worlds
I strive to be a tech geek (though I am an amateur one at best) plus I am a climber. The two worlds RARELY collide, but when they do it is so fun! One place where they are currently merging is Twitter.
Twitter is a micro-blogging site that I have found to be of utter value within the last year. Most of the value I receive is through tech talk and following start-up chatter (I actually wrote up a post concerning this on the WasatchGirl blog). However, it is real fun to see people tweet (meaning to post something up on Twitter) about going climbing or recent climbing news.
A friend of mine and fellow blogger is The Climber Girl. She is a lawyer based in Oregon who climbs, blogs and tweets. She wrote up a fab blog the other day called Twitter 101 for Us Outdoorsy Types and then provided these lists of us bloggers and twitterers in the subsequent post. I was amazed at the list of us geeky climbers… Sweet! Nice post, girl! =)
If you are on Twitter or want to come check it out, I would love to connect. I am (as usual), The WasatchGirl.
