Do you actually use Twitter?

I mean, this thing has been out for years and I still don't really see the point of it. I don't personally know anyone that uses it, and the only people I ever hear talking about it are on tv or the news or whatever, trying to get you to follow them so they can cram more useless garbage and advertising down your throat. Do you really use it, and if so, what for? What does it offer to you that you honestly can't get anywhere else?

I use it way more than Facebook.

Twitter is just a super easy way of sharing content. I follow a lot of news sources and people that I really like and Twitter conveniently puts them all on my timeline for me to browse when I want.

No I don't use twitter.

Regretably, yes

Its the best social networking site aside from google +FlippyMittens

I use it for news I might otherwise miss (bands, tv, video games, ect), a few parody accounts for the lulz, winning things, and following a couple friends (but that`s really the least important to me...)

It's a useful tool if you use it right imo.

I always thought it was for people that were over 40 that think it's hip and cool. :lol:

I think it is really stupid and is nothing more than a marketing tool

I have an account and nobody follows me.NiKva

After using it I never knew how anyone could live without it due to news usually hitting twitter far faster then on tv.

I could do with an age filter to filter out those idiotic bieber trends

I recently got reintroduced to it by a friend and I have been checking up on it since.

Never got into social networking. Gamespot is the epitome of my online social networking. Be proud gamespot, be real proud.

Facebook is enough for me, i don't care how many times people need to take a sh it and most of my friends aren't famous stars or anything.

EDIT: :lol: :lol: the guy already said it ^^^

I don't use it for social stuff, just news. And by news I mean sports and gaming stuff.

I dont see the point really.

Especially when your average Joe Nobody is trying to get 'followers'. If you were a celebrity then sure, your pathological desire for attention and the actual fact that you are person people recognise.

I laugh whenever ne of my friends posts on my FB news feed and I see one if them asking for Twitter followers.

I've actually never used Twitter. I'm on Facebook and I just think that's enough social networking for me.

Never saw the need for a standalone facebook status under a different name

I use it to let everyone know when i'm taking a dump. fidosim

Don't even have Facebook.

But I do have Twitter and use it. lol

I don't even personally know anyone who uses it either! I don't see why people don't just post on their Facebook page, plus there isn't a character limit

I don't use it myself nor have an account there, no.

I think there's only one main reason behind Twitter, advertising and for celebs to push as much of it onto you as possible.JeromeCollinge

Yeah to keep tabs on bands and other things I like. Also for trolling around a bit on when I'm bored. I've got 18 followers so I'm popular.....

:lol:

I've got an account but I never post anything on it. I signed up because so many places seem to use it as their official place to announce things, like news about games and stuff. But I quickly found it worthless.

I have an account but never use it. Not my cup of tea.

I've never used it.
