To Twitter or Not to Twitter? posted : 03/16/09 at 05:49am pst listening to:Kings of the Wild Frontier - Adam Ant

So, my boyfriend and I have been trying to decide whether or not this whole Twitter thing is worth a try. It kind of freaks me out, only because everyone on the planet has an account, but I have yet to hear an actual function for the website. So, basically its like a whole site devoted to updating your facebook status? I don't know, I kind of want to get one to see what all the hoop-la is about, but am I just wasting my time?

i don't really understand the concept, i have one and for some reason people will follow me even though i rarely update?  Haha it just seems like another social networking fad where the point is to have the most friends.

When I first found it I was thinking... wtf... why??  It's just like updating your status on facebook/myspace... but without the profile.  Kinda lame if you ask me.  I still use it when I think about it though but I get annoyed at reading the status of people who can't get away from it... it's just overkill.

I spent ages trying to work out what it was for...then decided that I'm lousy at updating my facebook so probably would be a daft idea :)

dude, i dunno. i am firmly set against twitter, it's like a step up from facebook in creepiness. why does everyone have to know what everyone else is doing, allllll the time?

A friend of mine recently got an account and honestly I like the Idea. But probably not for me since i rarely up date any of my other pages...or /is/ it?! because all I'd have to do is write a sentence. No real thinking or sense making required :D I like that too.
