Ally: Final Twitter post.

Well readers, the time of posting has now come to an end. Some of the things I found out about Twitter and what it is used for surprised me and some of them just confirmed my opinions of it. Twitter is a way for people to kind of live through others. Live through their pictures, their posts of their wonderful lives. But Twitter doesn't end there. Twitter is used for advertising, for job searching, for company growth, and so much more. I didn't realize just how well used Twitter is. I always assumed it was just celebs showing off their lives and others just being witty or wishing that they were showing off their own lives. Seeing the sites where you can job search through Twitter or the last post about the different uses of Twitter, those were the things I came across that really surprised me. It is a whole different world. A world to be more of yourself, to improve yourself, and a world to live through others, if that's what you want. All in all doing this research and even just simply poking around sites and other searches more in-depth about Twitter than I have ever done really opened my eyes to how much of a different world it is. Although compared to or with Facebook, they are very different and you tell by the way people treat them, even simply by what they post on each site. I hope you enjoyed the information that you saw on here, not only about Twitter but all of the other sites talked about as well.

Pinterest is my augmented reality and definitely for all of those other pinners, even if they realize it or not. Pinterest is where I spend at least an hour or more each day looking at other pinners' boards and repin the things that I love to my boards. Or when I'm normally just surfing the web and I like something and want to share it with the world I make sure to pin it. Pinterest is where my creativity grows and  my plans grow on how I would like my wedding or my future house to be. Pinterest is where someone can escape to and post all of their dreams and goals, just like when you would do a goal/dream board in school, where you would cut out things from magazines and make a collage out of the pictures and words, Pinterest is exactly like that, except without all of the mess of paper everywhere and the manual labor. Pinterest is where if you are forgetful and need a recipe or anything else, this is where you can save all of those great ideas so when you are ready to do it you can find it easily in your boards. Now that this project has come to an end, I have enjoyed looking further into what Pinterest is all about, and find out more about other pinners augmented realities. 

Ally: More on the purpose of Twitter

As I asked my lovely followers on Twitter I continued to do some more research on why people use Twitter. One of my favorite answers, that I personally agree with was that it gives a sense of being able to express yourself better than through Facebook. Honestly not sure why this is. Maybe because of the lack of thousands of friends. Maybe because you don't have your whole life posted and people tagging you in their lives. Just more room to express yourself through words.


I did find another article that I found very interesting on the different uses of Twitter.
