i dont use it, but i know a lot of people who use it simply to follow other "more interesting people" and get their sports news more quickly. Almost every big story these days come from Twitter first before it hits the big networks.

I like Twitter because you can read all the subtitles and that is about all I can remember anyways. Plus it keeps me up to date on my hometown news. As far as tweeting, nah.

As best I can tell, it's an online "People" magazine."I think about the cosmic snowball theory. A few million years from now the sun will burn out and lose its gravitational pull. The earth will turn into a giant snowball and be hurled through space. When that happens it won't matter if I get this guy out." Bill Lee

I heard that the birds were tweeting long before humans, they are some kind of superior race

I used to be totally anti Twitter for awhile but I somehow got hooked into it and I love it. I love being able to follow athletes or celebrities and see what they have to say about their every day lives, it's fascinating to me for some reason. I get really excited whenever one of them replies to me as well cause I think it's so awesome they're taking the time to interact with their fans.

The only "interactive" medium I like is Facebook. I don't see the fun of writing down what I am doing during the day on Twitter.

I've never done Facebook either. Seems like overkill to me (who does not even bother to send out Christmas cards).
