Closing my MySpace account: follow my news blog on Twitter!
Hi guys,
First off, thank you so much for 4 years of supporting my blog. It has meant a great deal to me to have met so many people as eager as I am to help spread the truth.
I'm closing my MySpace account pretty soon, since I also post all these news on Twitter (http://twitter.com/marineperez). I really enjoy the easiness of microblogging that Twitter brings, and I've found that more and more people are migrating to this social networking service, so I have done the same to promote my blog for a year now. It is simple, practical and fun. Try it!
Moreover, you do NOT need to have a Twitter account to read my posts. Like this blog, my Twitter posts are for public viewing. But if you do have a Twitter account, please add me to your "following" list.
Twitter also has the convenience of RSS feeds, so for those of you who are interested in receiving my Twitter news posts that way, here's the link for your reader (http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/14102030.rss).
Again, thanks so much for your constant support over the years and I hope you can keep following my news posts on Twitter.
-Mariné
