I’m in my college town for the night, sitting on my bestie’s bed which smells of her boyfriend’s cologne. I’m attempting to get her to join me in this crazy experiment of blogging, and she’s just not having it.

She was already upset with me for using her computer, so perhaps I didn’t pick the best time to introduce her.

After watching Twitter’s introduction video, here was our conversation.

Shelly: Why do they call it tweet? Why isn’t it twit?
Maria: I don’t know. I think it’s because it’s a bird. You know, “TWEEEEEEEEET!”
S: Wait. I thought you hadn’t seen that video before.
M: I hadn’t.
S: Then why did you think it would convert me?
M: Because I thought if you saw it in black and white, you’d finally get it.
S: But it wasn’t black and white. There was some red and blue and green too.
