Twitter vs. Blogger

So, I've felt guilty the last few months for not updating the website very often. This is primarily due to the fact that I update Twitter every day, and usually at least one post about Laura and/or Karen. I'm vowing to do better, however. If nothing else, I've added a Twitter widget to the blog, so that you can see what the latest update is. The only problem with that is that I often tweet about things that aren't related to Laura and Karen. The main advantage of having a blog rather than just using Twitter or Facebook is the record keeping (FB and Twitter don't archive very well.)

So, I've decided to add this nifty "little" post that includes all the tweets about Laura and/or Karen from the last year. And, I will try to post all the tweets from the last month at the beginning of each month, so that I don't have to do a whole year again. I wish there was some way to integrate all of the pertinent tweets as posts, at the appropriate date. But, that'd be WAY too much work for very little reason other than record keeping. So, I'm doing one big post.
