How long before twitter ends up on the trash heap of idiotic trends that belong on a trash heap?

If you twitter, tweet, twirl or twatever, then yes, this IS an indictment of you. Reminds me of the LCD pets people had on key chains that they had to feed. Whatever those were called.

3. I've heard of Twitter by name but had no idea what the hell it was until I googled it.

Apparently it's like Myspace and Facebook, but it's Twitter? I don't know.

14. Just 15 years ago no one would have known what the hell you were talking about.

They'd think you were talking about some kid's show on PBS.

4. What is twitter?

I keep hearing that word and I have no idea what it means. And I don't care enough to look it up for myself. :P

8. Stop, please.

Everybody who is posting "what is twitter?" is having a joke on me, right?

[redqueen]

9. Hehehe... no!

I heard some guy on FOX news mention it... on some YouTube clip I watched of him constantly referring to it. I don't know why I watched it though. :P

"having a joke on me"... I like that. :D

10. I thought this had already happened?

But I missed this hot trend, too, so what do I know?

12. From what I understand of it, it seems like a remarkably stupid thing

It is interesting, however, that a few years ago there was much discussion of how the internet was increasing social isolation and tearing down social networks. Those concerns are probably valid, but on the other hand all this e-stuff has completely redesigned and increased social connectivity in some really bizarre ways.

13. You mean it's not there already?

Honestly, it just feels like all the worst parts of text messaging, mixed in with all the worst parts of the internet. Hey, look at how great/important/busy/funny I am, in txt spek, no less.

15. Fuck you, I like Twitter.

[arcadian]

16. Youch, sorry.

For you, I recant my previous statements about twitter. Okay, now I recant that recantation. :P

[ghostsofgiants]

17. It's not something to take seriously, but it's a decent amusement.

I like to use it to complain about callers while I'm at work, mostly.
