Okay, so I’ve decided to give Twitter a try. Follow what I’m doing as I go about my day by joining twitter or just by clicking here.
I’ve added my Twitter status to the right-hand side of the page so that you can check back here often to see what’s up with me. You can also join Twitter and add me as a favorite. My user name is FredCast (duh!). Give it a try and let me know what you think. My jury is still out on Twitter, but since everyone seems to love it so much I thought I’d give it a try.
Scroll down a bit and check out the new poll on the right-hand side of the page. Here’s the question: How often do you use an iPod (or other listening device) on your rides?
I’ll be interested to see the results.
By the way, here are the results of the last poll which asked, How Often Do You Wear a Helmet?
On Every Ride – 582 Votes
On Some Rides – 22 Votes
Rarely – 6 Votes
Never – 11 Votes
