I guess it is another way to get your few minutes of fame no matter how fake the fame is in reality.
I can see Twitter as being a good vehicle for public figures to stay in contact with their fans. Or as a way to say I am in LA shopping but really be out shopping in po'dunk city somewhere and not want to be bothered.
but over all it just a quite note to cyberspace that anyone can read. public email. If I want everyone to read what I have to say I do it on C-D! Public chit-chat with meaning. plus we get to use more spaces.
I have to say that Twitter is absolutely the dumbest website ever created.
I told everyone I know that I'm going to start texting everyone in my phone every hour of the day to let them know what I'm doing at that exact moment, even if it's personal information they probably don't want to hear.
Most said: WTF? Why? Well. . .For those that have Twitter, What's the difference?
1:00pm - I'm Pooping.
2:00pm - I'm Eating.
3:00pm - Taking a shower.
4:00pm - Did I mention I was Pooping @ 1:00pm?
What a retarded site, Seriously.
And it surprises the hell out of me how many people truly believe that all these "celebrities" have a twitter site that they push to the general public. . . Uhh. . . Hello. . . Ever heard of a publicist?
If anyone ever wonders why people are getting dumber. . . There's one answer.
Yes, with all the talk of it with CNN , friends and the such, I checked it out...it's nothing more than an instant message board of what you are doing minute by minute....hum.....privacy is a thing of the past for some...I don't use the twit anylonger it's a joke..... I used ICQ years ago and much better and more tools...
A couple relatives of mine are on Twitter and one told me they were on, so thinking it would be fun, I joined it. I didn't know that the only thing you could do with it was type updates on your life. I know that no one cares about the little tiny details of my day so I hardly ever write anything. I thought that there would be all sorts of things to do on there as is the case on Facebook, like quizzes and surveys. I can't imagine any individual would do this for too long, unless the person is way too into himself or herself, or seriously bored seven days a week.
people are nuts...that they praise twitter--wtf is wrong with this society---and what is going on??
waht kind of civilized intelligent society--would even consider using anything as dumb dumb and DUMB as twitter__--the name, the concept...are people just stupid or messed up? what is wrong with this society...fine i can get facebook being 'popular' on some level but..twitter?? I think a 4 year old came up with it or soem college student on crack...and peopel actually LIKE it and use it...and wtf??? thats like someone saying...Ok let's create a website called "let's chat" and u can chat and post about yourself...here do it...and everyone is like...omg!!! let's chat?? and the news is talking about let's chat and celebs are posting on it!! yippiee!! this society is whacked seriously...i dont get it...i guess people are losing brain cells or something is going on ..
