I can officially say that I am no longer a member of “Twitter”. It was quite the experiment…
I still don’t understand the point of it… the reason that people would want to know every minute by minute detail about your life (or why you would want to know that much about them). I just can’t see why this even exists.
We have blogs… facebook… myspace… and yet for some, the need to know more info is like a plague in our lives. How is this enriching us? How is this making us better people?
This might be a great marketing tool for celebrities (or even for businesses) that are trying to promote themselves and keep their popularity up… but in an age where most celebrities are looking (aka begging) for more privacy, why would they want to open themselves up into a medium that will show the everyday details in their lives. I know that they can control what people see… but it also opens them up for other types of “stalking” or something by the media or even everyday people.
Anyway… I really believe this is a “fad” that will come to an end… and hopefully soon.

ive lost interest in my twitter too.
it was cool for about 2 minutes. now its just annoying. i will stick to blogs and facebook.
even myspace is SOOOO done! i think i deleted my myspace like 2 years ago now.
I agree. I kept hearing about it and looked it up and just had no interest. I don’t want to know what anyone is doing every minute of the day nor do I feel the need to share that info.
