This. Seems. To. Be. Popular.

I'm trying to figure out this internet world and the hipness of it. And I am catching on to a few things.

It appears to be cool to share something you're thinking of on Twitter and include a link about it. It's especially good if what you're thinking is sort of vague, so your followers have to follow the link. So, if I were awesome, I might say,

Jonas Brothers, can't wait!!!!! http://entertainment.oneindia.in/music/international/2009/jonas-brothers-camp-rock-2-100709.html .

So then you'd follow it, and find out that the Jonas Brothers are going to star in Camp Something or other 2. And you'd totally be glad I tweeted that. Because you didn't know. But now you do.

And then you'd post it on your facebook wall, because that's what you do, and then all your friends would be glad, because now they'd know too. And then someone would post a link on your facebook wall that would take you to their flickr page with the picture they took with their cell phone of the Jonas Brothers at the Stadium of Fire. And then you'd be totally jealous and comment that they looked hot.

But what I've learned most recently from the internet, is that if. you. really. mean. something. you. should. put. a. period. after. each. word.

Oh. My. Gosh.
Absolutely. Amazing.
You. Are. Joking.
Best. Food. Ever.
Never. Again.
I. Love. Edward. (Did. I. Just. Type. That.?)

So, I'm just telling you, I am picking things up, one word with a period at a time. And pretty soon I'm going to be super internet savvy. Whoops! I mean Super. Internet. Savvy.

I knew you secretly loved Edward, there's no shame in admitting it... well there is a little shame but you would be in good company. I have been invited to join twitter by a couple of people, should I do it Jayne? Would I finally be cool? Since you are so savvy maybe you could coach me.

So Funny. I've been reading a for a while, but this was really funny!

Maybe you could do something really tricky and cool like taking the first letter of a word and putting it at the end of the word and adding an "a" after it, huh? Wouldn't that be cool? I'll bet no one has thought of that. Then you could have your own tricky language that only certain bloggers would be able to figure out! Talk.about.blazing.your.own.trail.huh.shana?
