Don't even bother, Vicc. I tried it once, and it got boring within 5 minutes of me setting up an account.

lol Me too. Thought I'd set it up for my Blackberry so I could twitter with the talking heads on CNN, but it all seemed like too much work.

I have twittered once and only once, I was about to twitter a second time and came to the realization of who really gives a fuck if I'm heading into to
work or not. Haven't been back since.

That's the point...it's not about YOU tweeting...it's about reading what OTHERS are tweeting.
You have to find the right people to follow. |

I joined specifically to meet up with someone who was at SXSW, which was a blast BTW. It's mildly interesting, but I am kind of upset about the fact that I
have to set up internet accounts with a lot of my personal information at various sites because that's the only way some people communicate these days.

newposter wrote:Really? I didn't know! All these years, I haven't actually been talking at this board about going to concerts -- and I ESPECIALLY haven't been to any with any members of this board -- I've just been reading about them on twitter! YOU SHOWED ME! HOW WILL I EVER GET OVER THE SHAME AND EMBARRASSMENT I FEEL BECAUSE OF NEWPOSTER? Or, maybe you could go back and reread what I was talking about, rub your one-and-a-half brain cells together, and realize that I was talking about following media outlets on twitter to keep up with the news. If the media is going to tweet about SXSW for a week instead of new album reviews, who's quitting what band, and other shit like that, then there's not a whole lot I can do about it, huh? |

OT-ies, you don't twitter, you "tweet."
Let's learn the terminology! 
Okay, thanks to EmmaPeel's advice above, I found this in Google. Twitter 101: http://www.1creativewisdom.com/2009/01/twitter-101/ I just became a member. I think I'll be a follower for starters, without tweeting. tweet... tweet... chirp... chirp...

my friend said ' why would anyone want to know where i was every second of the day? and if they do well that's just creepy.' dumbass, you
can't be followed if you don't tweet.

I have Twitter. I am following 2 people so far, one is Martha Stewart. (why? idk) the other is Defamer.
I have posted a few stupid tweets, but no one even knows I have it so they can't follow me. Except my best friend she knows but she could always call me. I did it from my cell phone yesterday. It may be fun to do while on a trip or something? |

ugh! so i didn't think a lot of my friends would jump on the twitter bandwagon. i was wrong. i've had several requests from people i don't want
following me. not because i don't like them but because i feel i'm being intruded on. i'd rather have a complete stranger do that. it's like
sex with a stranger. sometimes it's just better that way. not that i know anything about that.
this sucks ass! |
