I am now a twit who tweets

I have finally taken the plunge into Twitter. Or, more accurately, dipped my toes in the water of Twitter.

I've considered this for a while, and have held off in large part because I've never been sure exactly what I'd accomplish by being on Twitter. I still don't know. From what I can see, the baseball Twitterverse is divided into two parts: Breaking news/rumormongering and snark. My blog isn't a newsbreaker, and I prefer to offer context to snark. One hundred-forty characters doesn't lend itself to nuance. So ... I may surprise myself, but as of now I don't anticipate being particularly active.

Now that I have dampened your expectations, I hereby call your attention to the "Twitter update" section in my siderail. Follow me if you wish, don't if you don't.
