Do You Tweet?
 
Would crossing SY.com w/ Twitter cheapen them both?

Tell me, what's the point of Twitter? Serious question, as I have no idea what the site is about. Isn't it just the status updates thing from myspace and facebook.. on another site?

HaydenAsche 04.01.2010 07:07 PM

That was my impression too, Adam. I signed up and that seemed like the only option. I don't remember what mine even is.

cagedbird 04.01.2010 07:50 PM

i see it as a digital media exercise in language editing. but it may be a rip-off from other sites, too.

honestly, i was getting a little bored with my internet use and thought adding sy.com-type, uh, type wld make twitter more relevant. not sure if this makes sense.

I just deleted my whole post because it sounded like something an 80 year old ass man would write, if he was able to log onto the internet. I mentioned C-SPAN if that is any clue.

its twitting. It would be Tweeter if you were tweeting, but no, it is suitably named. Twit-ter.

the ultimate in trivializing everything...as evidence of its worth, realize ashton kucher is its leading voice. now isn't that sad.

cagedbird 04.07.2010 11:13 AM

i know a lawyer who hates ashton kucher. at leat he kept punk alive, ashton did w/ punk'd. but is he actuyally the leading voice of twitter, like to mac as justin long is?

twitter is fun at first but unless you have unlimited texts on yr phone plan and unlimited time to check all the incoming textx it is a pain in the ass to follow more than 3-4 people/bands/friends.
(especially if yuo follow someone who tweets as often as some losers update facebook status and shit)
sending tweets is fun I guess, but it becomes so rote. there are only so many things you can say in 140 chaarcters that anyone wants to actually read.

i find conan o'brien's twitter the most amusing out of anyone's

stu666 04.07.2010 11:54 AM

my little toe nail just fell off

cagedbird 04.07.2010 12:11 PM

the whole nail? was it 'fucked up?'

i think the public enemy board listed board members who also tweet. that's a nice idea. it's a way to learn about people.

stu666 04.07.2010 12:17 PM

yeah the whole nail came off when i took my sock off, it wasn't fucked up before.

oh and i don't tweet.

SYRFox 04.07.2010 05:17 PM

I don't tweet. I don't see what's so great about this site...

However, I did set up a tumblr today and I must say I'm quite enjoying it. As a whole it feels more complete and interesting than twitter. It feels more as a portfolio or something: http://syrfox.tumblr.com/

cagedbird 04.07.2010 05:59 PM

tumblr? wtf? sounds like posterous, another 'portfolio' site.

Crumb's Crunchy Delights 04.07.2010 06:48 PM

Myspace > all

Derek 04.08.2010 04:37 AM

I don't like any of them.

static-harmony 04.08.2010 04:39 AM

For a moment there I thought it said do you tweak.

No. Myspace has been dumb ever since they began mimicking every other "social networking" website. Now whenever I go on my myspace all I have is 200 invites for apps I don't give a fuck about and friends invite by people only willing to advertise for their shitty song.
