Wow, it’s my Twitter anniversary. I started using Twitter in February 2007, time sure flies when you’re having fun!

I thought it would be fun to share a few things. I used TweetStats to see my most popular tweeted terms from the past couple of years.

My most popular five terms are: thanks, new, good, blog, nashville. What are your most popular terms?

Here’s the full list:

Mine have and I love them for it.

I recently upgraded my very outdated version of WordPress for my blog/podcast Two Boobs and a Baby +. The template I was using was one that I had tweaked here and there using my archaic idea of PHP (I used HTML instead). When the upgrade was completed my blog was down.

I was getting loads of errors messages, had trouble logging into the admin and more. My site was a mess and I was stuck. I created a new folder and uploaded a clean version of WordPress to try to migrate the two, but it didn’t work. I tried a bunch of different things, but had no success, so I did what any social networking geek would do, I tweeted for help.

Minutes passed and friends on Twitter reached out to me to help. Friends like @groovysoup, @studionashvegas, @hockeyskates, @kg4hsr and @tommyvallier. While everyone scrambled to offer to help, Tommy Vallier IM’d me over Skype to get right down to business.

Between chatting about my wishing I was at Podcasters Across Borders this weekend, my love for Kingston (Ontario), beer, scotch and other great topics, he fixed my blog. He fixed it all. Tommy Vallier is my hero! Thank you SO much Tommy.

I’ve had other good Twitter friends help me with WordPress woes before, @imnico comes to mind immediately.

This is just a big virtual hug to my friends in Twitterland and on the other social networks I spend so much time on. You are all my heroes. Thanks everybody.

I’d love to hear how friends on Twitter have helped you, or how you have been able to help your Twitter family. Let’s share some stories people.

You need to hear episode 10 hear episode 10 to understand her tweet.

These tweets put a smile on my face, so I added them to my favorites. I wish I remembered to do this more often.

I’d just like to take a moment to thank @bumblebunny, @thinkjose, @acomputerpro, @r, @Pistachio, @studionashvegas and @EdRoberts for providing me with comedy gold (in 140 characters or less.) :-)
