i don’t plurk much but i tweet often. there are hyper times when i tweet twice in a minute but there are times when i don’t tweet the whole day. depends on the mood.

the reason why i like twitter better than plurk is, it’s simple. for me, although many people enjoy it, the graphics and too many colors are distracting. it’s like friendster/myspace versus facebook. i’m more interested in what my followers and whom i following are tweeting or replying about, that’s it. i don’t like micro-blogging from the main site anyways. i use gadgets and apps embedded in gmail for example or running in my desktop. i like the fact that i can tweet my blog posts too.

so there, i’m sticking with twitter

for now i can say this after friendster lost its spark and myspace is passe. some people think that these social networking apps are non-sense but to me, they are my stress relievers
.
reason number 1, that’s where i reunite with my old buddies. i get to see what they look like now or what they’re up to after all these years. it’s fun to read interactions and stuff from them. it feels good to know that you’re not the only one who’s bored, broken-hearted, busy, stressed, sick, frantic, or whatever through status messages.

reason number 2, facebook is easy to use. you can leave comments or ratings without leaving the HOME page unlike other networking sites wherein you have to open each profile before you can do so. profile views or who’s viewing your profile aren’t really that important, right?

reason number 3, facebook is clean and light. i mean, currently i’m not seeing spam profiles with very naughty pictures and all kinds of unreal stuff. hope it stays the way it is.

ok so those are the general reasons why i like and use facebook. i had an account with it more than 3 years ago i think when it was still limited to accredited schools. glad they opened it up for everyone and let’s all hope it won’t slow down.

recently i came across this problem of being clueless on what domain to register. i think i wasted all afternoon just figuring it out because almost everything i’ve thought of were taken. why does it have to be very time-consuming, eh?

here are some DOMAIN NAME GENERATOR sites that you can check out which can probably save your from this kind of dilemma:

1. MAKEWORDS
2. DOTOMATOR
3. HACKSLASH
4. RANDOMAINER
5. BUST A NAME
6. DOMAINSBOT
7. NAMEBOY

here are some quick tips on choosing a good domain for your website:

1. make it short.
2. avoid using dashes if possible.
3. pick one that is easy to pronounce.
4. add your website’s keyword niche to it.
5. choose a catchy name, something you wouldn’t be embarrassed to stick at the back of your truck, print on your shirt, etc.

hope this helped
