Weekly Question: Extending Roleplay Outside of the Game

[catpella]

Inspired by: Over on Tumblr, some people are setting up in-character Twitters! It's a fun-looking project, so I thought I'd link it here.

Question: If you roleplay, where do you prefer to do it, and why? Do you prefer to interact with others inside the game? Do you make use of other places (like Twitter, Tumblr, or a DW-like blogging service) to extend your in-character time? What services do you prefer, and why?

I've never actually RPed in game, and it seems like a lot of pressure. Also, following the SWTOR tag on tumblr has convinced me that (some) RPing is SRS BSNS.

This said, an in-character twitter feed sounds pretty awesome.

I prefer longer updates and asynchronousness, so I prefer Google Docs or a forum or journal thread any day. In game RP scares me because it's short and realtime.
