Jumping on the Twitter Bandwagon

Twitter. It's everywhere these days. Shaq tweets his congratulations to Kobe after the Lakers win the NBA title (how touching!). Republican politicians bait President Obama via Twitter. And, let's not forget, Paris Hilton and other celebutantes post their every move to the service. And now, About.com Snowboarding can be added to the growing list of Tweeting twits. That's right. I went there!

Believe it or not, there's a healthy number of snowboard related Twitter feeds out there. Industry stalwarts like Ross Powers are all on the site, and with the recent explosion of all things Twitter in the media, it's only a matter of time before more snowboarders and snowboarding companies get in on the gig.

For now, I don't plan on tweeting too often - it is, after all, the middle of the summer where I live. And I promise not to push product (unlike a popular resort, which shall remain nameless...) without explicitly stating as such. So after all this, if you're still interested I can be found at https://twitter.com/AboutSnowboard. And don't worry...I won't call you a twit for following my tweets on Twitter!
