I don't know about you but I'm sick of twitter. It seems to be the new Internet fad and everyone and their mothers is using twitter. It just looks like advertising in disguise and people fall right into it.

I'm not 100% certain what it is. From what I've heard, it's sort of like a blog that auto-notifies people whenever you make a new entry?
I think they're limited to word or character count, as well, so it encourages the use of... shortened words and spam.I'm not 100% certain what it is. From what I've heard, it's sort of like a blog that auto-notifies people whenever you make a new entry?

Weird. Why would they do that? Does the notification go to more than just other users on the site? i.e. cell phones or whatever?

Haven't the faintest. This is hearsay, I've never used twitter.tofu-lion91Does twitter limit how many characters you can use per twit? Does that make the past-tense of twit, ****? I used to **** all the time, but now I only twit a couple of times a week?
[QUOTE="tofu-lion91"]JandurinDoes twitter limit how many characters you can use per twit? Does that make the past-tense of twit, ****? I used to **** all the time, but now I only twit a couple of times a week? Funny. "Using" twitter is called "tweeting". So you would tweet, not twit. There is a character limit. I think it's 190? I don't recall. I chose, "No, and I wish people would shut up about it." People talk about it all the time. Grr. If you like it so much, use it to tell people who care and stop telling me!
Never used Twitter, but apparently it randomly became popular because a bunch of celebrities use it.
How old is twiiter I have only been hearing about for a few months, is it the new myspace or something.

I just can't get into it. For some reason I don't care when a celebrity is taking a crap.xTheExploited/thread.
meh, its just a fad imo, but i never used it, so i can't say anything about..i just think its legal stalking :)
Awesome Avi + Sig! Oh, I don't really care for it, but how they advertise it, as being the in thing, while other things are far better :x To me, Twitter is like a Facebook status, without the rest of Facebook, it just gives a chance for people to feel important if anyone tracks themI don't know about you but I'm sick of twitter.

No Im not sick of it, I just don't really care for it. It just seems like Facebook but without the rest of the package.
People that get bothered by a website are lame.DrSpongePeople that use lame reasons to determine that people are lame are lame.

whoooops didn't mean to quote just reply
I don't understand the point of it, but I don't mind the general public using it as a social networking kind of thing. I think it's gotten out of hand now though. The NHL just had their draft and free agency starts on Wednesday, so the past few days have been filled with trade rumours and such. Now websites and journalists are using twitter to post possible trades lol.
