Comment Rules Imagine this is a dinner party. Differences of opinion are welcome but keep it respectful or the host will show you the door. If you're rude or abusive, your comment will be deleted (so will comments responding to other rude comments because they won’t make sense - so save your breath). And if you’re offensive, you’ll be banned. Remember what Fonzie was like? Cool. That's how we're going to be - cool. Have fun and thanks for adding to the conversation...

Come and find us all! You can search twitter – http://www.search.twitter.com – with our cool new hash tag #mamam and find all the mamamia commenters!
Well…we think we’re cool
That clip had me in stitches. I’m on twitter and love it. I also blog about the “everyday and mundane” so it’s not a far stretch. It’s amazing what people find interesting
Mia – I am twittering but still “don’t get the fascination” – however I will soilder on to see if I get a grasp and enthusiasm for it. You however make me laugh. I’ve already fired John Mayer and Ashton Kutcher – DH’s. Nobody really follows me and I think I’m kinda cool – wanna be my friend? (ha ha) I think I’m known as Aussiesoccermum
Twitter is a social networking tool and you can use it sensibly and build a network of people who support and encourage you and your business. I like connecting with my tweeps because I work at home on my own every day so they keep me sane on those challenging days and make me laugh about purely inane subjects and I have those that I connect with that we have serious conversations with … it really does depend on how you use it. I have not once promoted my products I sell but I like to direct traffic to my blog posts and I only ever mention it once a day as I post everyday, just like Mia does … I’ve met some of my tweeps offline and they are really lovely … it’s help me connect to like mindeds locally and globally and I’ve learnt so many new things that help me and my business.
I hope that helps you choose whether twitter is for you or not, I have been on it for nearly a year now and it took me months to get into it and find a balance
Haha great video! I actually agree with everything that dude says but for whatever reason, continue to be riveted by Twitter and compulsively check in.
Mia, I can’t believe how fast your following is growing. Yay you!
I have no time to twitter about what? That I just ate a custard tart. Or, that I just changed my daughter’s soiled nappy? No, but no, but no, but no, but no. But, I do love your blog Mia, I love reading all the comments and the articles your keep throwing our way. Oh, and those Louis Vuitton shoes the other day – PO BOX 1112 Gosford 2250.
Really Angela ? I just have a very basic phone that doesn’t have web access tho ??
I love communicating (it’s what I do for a living) but I’m really not into technology in my personal life … I don’t think I would even own a computer if it wasn’t for my daughter!
In fact, I only just learned how to put music on my handmedown ipod !! hahaha
I’d love to check it out BUT I don’t have access at work (social networking sites are a no no) and I refuse to spend my personal time sitting in front of a computer! 10-12 hours a day M-F is enough!
I have a twitter, but i never write anything because no one ever reads it… I have one person following me. Really I’m just too cool
I just read yours and dooce’s
I’m actually getting kind of bored with it.
I think it is only worthwhile if you can twitter through your mobile. But for some reason twitter wont allow me to do it through my mobile..
The more I twitter the more I realise it’s quality, not quantity, that counts when it comes to following people. In the beginning, I followed everyone who tapped me on the shoulder, so to speak…but I’ve been slowly unfollowing those who (a) use twitter as advertising space – i.e. “anyone need a PR consultant?” (b)I have nothing in common with i.e. UK Death Metal bands (WTF?) or (c) those who tweet too bloody much about too little – I really don’t need to know every single thing you’ve done this morning…

Thanks Mia!

Ah yes, Angela, but they’re not all true….The MM group is a lot of fun though…
You can do it from your phone TheRealSyd.
You can learn all sorts of things on twitter hey Gig?
I’d love to check it out BUT I don’t have access at work (social networking sites are a no no) and I refuse to spend my personal time sitting in front of a computer! 10-12 hours a day M-F is enough!
I was going to suggest a Mamamia chat forum but we have one on twitter already.
I love love love twitter!
And I am definitely loving the mamamia community that has sprung up!
