Welcome to the September 15, 2008 Edition of the Review Bloggers Carnival!
It's no secret. I like getting stuff. I like writing about the stuff that we like and perhaps make my family's life a little easier. Especially, if it works!
Or, I haven't managed to break it...YET!
Do you have a review blog - or, perhaps found a product (or, service) that you really, really like and you're aching to share with the rest of the blogosphere - then, you may be interested to learn that the Review Bloggers Carnival has come to This Full House!
Clean off a chair and come on in - mi casa, y su casa - as we canvas the Internets and share together in the ultimate consumer experience....window shopping!
WHAT'S HOT?
Nothing, if you asked any one of my kids, when it really should be something. It is, however, the one simple question that has taken the blogosphere by storm.
Do you Twitter and - if the answer is STILL no - then, what is it?
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the day in 140 characters, or less.
For me?
It is micro-blogging at its best AND very, very addictive - follow me @thompsonclan6.
However, there are users who are put off by Twitter, or hesitant to join yet another social media tool ripe with spam and reports of misuse, which leads to another questions: Is there such a thing as Twitterquette?
