There are in fact lots of bondage models and photographers on it and some of them I&#8217;d like to follow.  So after much hesitation &#8211; heck, I&#8217;ve held out for a couple years now! &#8211; I finally signed up a few days ago and made a <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/Sandra_Gibbons\">profile<\/a>.  I have no idea if I&#8217;ll stick with it or simply give up in bewilderment and frustration in a few weeks.  <\/p>\n<p>I certainly don&#8217;t &#8220;get it&#8221; at this point and can&#8217;t imagine how anyone could possibly follow more than maybe twenty-five people without being overwhelmed.  I see users who are following hundreds, even thousands, of people and I just think, how?  Obviously there&#8217;s no way to read that many &#8220;tweets&#8221; (I can&#8217;t believe I just used that word for real).  I&#8217;ve also seen some users who tweet something like forty or more times a day, which almost seems rude to the poor folks who are following you.  I think the most I&#8217;ve tweeted was four in one day, and I felt like I was really over-doing it at that point.  <\/p>\n<p>I also briefly followed an anonymous non-bondage person who asked me to, but he was so active that my timeline was suddenly filled with this guy&#8217;s tweets and re-tweets.  I felt bad to do it, but I quietly hit the &#8220;unfollow&#8221; button.  Anyway, if you are on Twitter, I don&#8217;t even know if I would recommend following me or not, for I am far from sold.  Believe me, I will not be offended if you choose not to (and of course, I won&#8217;t know anyway!).  So with that glowing endorsement &#8211; hey, yeah, follow my exciting tweets on <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/Sandra_Gibbons\">Twitter<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That den of insecurity known as Twitter has always seemed slightly ridiculous to me even though I know quite a few people who like it a lot.
