Hey, I havent spotted the customary Forum Thread about Twitter on AP yet so..

Are any of you on Twitter?  Do you say anything interesting?

If so, post your twitter name here!

Yes.

Do you say anything interesting?

I occasionally say things. Whether or not they're interesting, I have no idea. I was interested enough to tweet them, but that's all I can say. Mostly my Twitter feed posts updates to my blog/journal/thingy.

Hey Caterpillar Woman - Interesting blog!  I have both followed you and subscribed to your RSS feed

I'm surprised I do facebook, but then again, that keeps me in touch with my family and REAL friends.  I like my privacy.

I barely do Facebook... and I despise it enough.
I absolutely abhor this trend of social sites.

is the word tweet or twat?



i think the latter.

Twitter can be as twatty or not as you want it to be!

I hated it at first, but its a great source of information if you follow the right people.  I use it with my business alot.  Its just like having an RSS feed of interesting topics.  Dont get too bogged down by the fact its a "social networking" site.  It can be used how you want providing you follow the right people.

LOL the problem is finding the right people.  I always do my own research now.   There is soooo much misinformation out there, it isn't funny.

Me, too. I thought it was pretty stupid. If you look at the majority of tweets, it IS pretty stupid, too.

One thing I have found useful is to find someone whose thoughts I like or admire and see who THEY are following. I've found some very worthwhile twitter feeds that way.

Of course the majority is going to be shallow and annoying. Look for the minority who share your interests, and let the rest natter on about their underpants or some celebrity's breast implants or whatever other randomly stupid thing they're nattering on about. I ignore those people in my 3D/Material reality, too!
