The Pulse is on Twitter!

Always the giddy follower of the latest and greatest of the Web, The Pulse now has a Twitter page!

To read it go to http://twitter.com/The_Puls....

For those unfamiliar with Twitter, it is like a mini-blog. Users post short bursts of info that are 140 characters or less. These are called "tweets."

If you're familiar with Facebook's "update status" tool or even Bakersfield.com's "friend updates" tool, it's sort of like that.

The Pulse will use Twitter to post breaking news, interesting quotes, links to interesting health stories, links to local health stories, tidbits of info and all sorts of other stuff I haven't even thought of yet. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

If you're on Twitter, send me a message and I'll follow you, which means I will get updates when you post something new.

And feel free to follow me. I like followers.
