That was surprisingly easy so far.

So, I now has a Twitter.

And it actually works when I text it things and everything.

And thus people can bear witness to my exciting and wonderful Egypt trip, via the tweets of the day.

Feel free to let me know if you also have a Twitter, so we can do the friending thing. Or whatever it is called in Twitterland.

That said, um, I may need assistance on getting the Twitter to feed to my LJ. Because that way even people who aren't on twitter can hear about me looking at the Pyramids.

LoudTwitter or setting up a feed for people to friend? Am willing to help in either way.

[drakyndra.livejournal.com]

LoudTwitter's the one that posts updates to your LJ account, right? Daily or whatever.

[purple-smurf.livejournal.com]

yeah. You'll need to go to LoudTwitter (http://www.loudtwitter.com/) and sign into it using OpenID. They kind of walk you through it a little, but I know it took a few tries for me to have it set up right (I currently have it turned off).

Well, I seem to have set up something on LoudTwitter. Maybe I'll set it so it's daily post is like now, to see how well it's working.

Just quickly: in terms of LJ feed, you need to go through http://www.livejournal.com/explore/ and paste in the RSS feed URL down the bottom where the feeds are listed. Your RSS URL is http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/19475180.rss You'll then be prompted to make a new account for the feed, and name it something amusing.

LoudTwitter is a leetle more complicated. Not very, but a little.

Followed. My username is purplepopple. Best option to set up for posting a summary of a day's tweets is to use post by e-mail.

[drakyndra.livejournal.com]

Well, I've already started mucking around with LoudTwitter, so we shall see how that works out.
