nah

I visited twitter's home page a few days ago out of curiosity. I don't want to take the time to do it and don't feel the need to broadcast what I'm doing at any given moment.

To be honest, I absolutely don't see the point in it!

I mean, what is the point in it?

Twitter and Tweet are already in the dictionary. Google is too, but only thanks to Google:

Code:
Main Entry:   google2  Part of Speech:   v  Definition:   to search for
information on the Internet, esp. using  the Google search engine Example:   
We googled to find the definition of the new  word.
Etymology:   trademark Google  Usage:   googling n

It'd a fad (-noun: a temporary fashion, notion, manner of conduct, etc., esp. one followed enthusiastically by a group.)

But one which has no doubt made someone a lot of money.

We must be in the wrong business!

I don't know what is twitter, so no account and so no login.

Happy ! Smilie

I do not use Twitter. I am sad to report that I got sucked into facebook, though.

Don't have twitter, don't follow anyone's twits (is that what you call them? Smilie )

My previous employer got over enthusiastic in blocking twitter after all that 'steal company secrets via twitter!' rubbish hit the headlines. After they had had a go at the proxy, even a google search for "twittering birds" would be blocked!

I've managed to avoid the lure of facebook, but use linkedin (unix.com is to blame for that actually, I'd never even heard of linkedin before I got the invite to join the unix group).

The only reason I might look at twitter is if I can use it for something more interesting. I'm wondering about using it as a transport mechanism for announcing detectable events - like make a trainspotting twitter - no I have zero interest in trainspotting but making a magic box that sits beside a track somewhere & photographs passing trains and twits/tweets/twats (whatever it is) the snap would be a fun project.

Hmm, actually that might just end up with the bomb squad blowing up my 'suspicious' project then arresting me as a terrorist... Maybe something else then...
