DistractingThings

Twitter is a website created with the purpose of letting your friends and family know exactly what you’re doing. You create an account and invite your friends to subscribe. Every time you post, your friends can see what you’re writing and reply back. Twitter is like AIM combined with a message board. What makes Twitter different is that it is mobile friendly so that you can “Twitter” using your phone.

Several celebrities are using Twitter to stay in contact with their fans. Celebrities include Britney Spears, MC Hammer, Sara Bareilles, and several others. So if you’re looking for an excuse to text or just want to let your friends know every bit of your life details from when you just ate that Sprinkles cupcake or to when you just paid a bus fee, Twitter away.

Deezer is a nifty site that lets you play any song in full track without having to download anything onto you computer. You can search either by artist name or song title. There is no limit to the amount of songs that you can save. You can save as many songs as you like onto your Playlist. You can create folders to organize music as well as request songs if it isn’t available when searched for. In addition, you may share your music by pasting a code provided by Deezer onto your blog or myspace page.

Upon arriving on Deezer’s homepage, you’ll get a glimpse of the top hits from all around the world. It’ll give you a chance to experience what music lovers are listening to in France, UK, Germany etc! A tip about using Deezer that a lot of people don’t realize: To add music into your playlist, which is the folder on the left, you have to drag the song into it.
