Ditto. Getting rather tiresome. Rather just talk to people on forums and such. At least then, can get on with real life and interact with people who care on our own time. Like this. Now.

Especially since twitter is even WORSE than the initial string of "I had subway for lunch" blogs because you can tell people where you are and will be with your mobile phone. This is like moblogging from HELL!

The mere concept of Twitter makes me scared... It's like saying "hey, Government, follow me..." Especially in this day and age of the "patriot" act. yuck.

See, that scares me. Especially since I'm paranoid enough to believe that the NSA is fixing to make me their ***** the next time I try to cross the boarder.

I know what you mean. And heck, you aren't even subject to our "laws" being from Canadia, and all...
Still. I hate that the government that is supposedly "me" can spy on "me" scares "me" incredibly.
rhymes
shouldn't be funny, but is.

i dont have an account, but i like the fact that you can interact with it via sms/cell phone..
This is interesting. My Thread (http://revision3.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4531) didn't get as many replies. :(
Twitter is awesome, but I think it's down now.

You don't have to post via cell phone, you don't have to say where you are. In any case - I'm not American so bring it on!

I don't like it. I honestly don't understand why so much buzz is going on about it.

I never used twitter but if it's anything like pownce then I never will use it..I tried pownce and found it to be the most useless thing I ever seen.
I will just stick to IMing and emails.

I don't post as much as I recieve, but that's just because I don't do as many exciting things as some of the peeps I follow :p

Sadly, I've become hooked into the Twitter again lately, thanks to a couple of friends. It's kind of like acceptable stalking, in a way. :)

For those who don't use Twitter, or just don't know what all the fuss is about, Common Craft produced a nice 2.5 minute video explaining Twitter in plain English.

See the thing about twitter and pownce is not " oh another social blah blah" and " i dont wanna hear someone taking a crap ". Thing about them is WHO is on you list. You cant just add anyone im finding cause you will get so bored and just look at people and go " wow, im sorry i dont care if you just woke up" but if you get the right batch of people that use it to show you the podcasts they made or have actual useful info, its a incredible tool. Im still sifting through, im just getting into them, but for sure, its not how many you know, its who you know.
Right now i try to come up useful things to post, if i have a interesting insight or if i have a bad day and i go to the park and feel better, ill post a pic and hopefuly insightful thought on how i distressed. I been trying to get myself to post about things at work like viruses that come out and how to fix them too.
Twitter i just watch and pownce i interact with.
Example of what i consider useful from my own posts.

Plenty of usless in there too i supposes, but im working on it.
