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.
What fascinates me is that such a banal idea not only catches on, but that it generates so much spin. This thread being an example. I'm not knocking the addition of the thread, just noticing that it seems to be a more common subject lately.
BTW, I agree. Why anyone thinks what they do every minute is important enough that I would care is beyond me.

You mean you don't care that I just scratched?
Oh... did it again! I'm on a roll!
Breathin' out my nose and not my mouth!
Blinked.
Blinked again.
LOL... what I find funny is that those of us that think places like Twitter are dumb are made to not feel like the cool people 'cuz you know "everyone's doing it". Why wouldn't you want to do it seeing as how everyone else is!
Which reminds me of that saying, "Sometimes a majority simply means all the idiots are on the same side".
I assume that the name Twitter is derived from Twit, which likely describes those involved in Twittering....
That's a dirty word in my house! My mom always called my sister's ex a twit-well, THE twit, to be exact, and that is the absolute ultimate insult in this household!..but I wonder if he twitters?
I joined Twitter way before it became popular. I didn't care for it, and found it useless in my daily life.
Ditto. Remember Friendster? And Bebo? And MySpace?
The final irony (well, it's not so much irony as it is inevitable) is that Twitter has snowballed into an income generating monster, a bandwagon that many folks are trying to jump on, take advantage of, get a piece of, etc.
"Follow" and "tweet" have gained new meaning in the English language.
I am not against all social networking on the web. I have a blog, and link to other blogs. Facebook is okay, if silly in its own way--and they tried to buy Twitter, they know which way the wind is blowing.
But Twitter felt so idiotic--I just couldn't get into it.

Honestly - who in their right mind would post every detail of their day/lives?
I have better things to do, then let the world know when I'm getting bopped or eating something.
Same here
I joined before it got popular and believed that know way would this site gain such popularity
Show's you how much I know
Then again I also said in the 80's that know one would pay for bottled water either
