again
if thats all you think the site is, thats cool

in a year though, when more people realize its more than that, and its a more viable social/business networking tool, you'll be signing up

i can't even begin to count the # of people i know who said they'd never join myspace/facebook 2 or 3 years ago who send me stupid shit on there all the time now

and i'm pretty sure twitter will have a more productive future than facebook

Its easy, that's the point.

2/23/2009 11:49:56 PM

oh no, i def know half of its target audience is just looking for easy

but then there are other people out there who are using it for so much more

2/23/2009 11:51:25 PM

Far as being a social network, I have not analyzed it yet enough to say what more it offers than any other social network does, but its transparent that is easy, and you don't feel like you have to write or do a lot to to say 'hey look at me I'm an attention whore.'

It's impressive that you guys are all over the internet (presumably) but are

1.) Unfamiliar with twitter
2.) Unsure as to how to find out what it is, like typing 'twitter' into google. That's http://www.google.com if you're not sure "what the faggot" google is

Nothing compared to some. I only update a few times per day. And several of my updates are automated from scripts running on my webserver. I mainly use it to play with the API and keep my script-writing skills honed.

probably my favorite "celeb" tweeter

2/24/2009 10:35:40 PM

Woodfoot, I did figure out that if you use twitter from your phone, it feels like you are texting people without knowing their number. As we all know texts are like crack, so this has a great feel to it like you have to respond. I don't know how Facebok, or MySpace feels or works in this regard but I don't care either. TFL.

2/25/2009 9:33:24 AM

yeah i text my tweets all the time

also - i just got a mad rush of spammer followers

anybody else get this?

2/25/2009 10:45:31 PM
