I've got a twitter thing, but don't fully understand the functionality of it. It's only got like 2 lines worth of typing before it cuts you off.  Who on earth has that little to say?  Not women, that's for sure!

From what I gather, Twitter is there to update people as to what you are currently doing. It's not a blog.

Isn't that the truth. We even discuss in detail how our meals returned to sight via our mouths.

Some people use things like facebook to keep in touch with friends via wall posting, and private messages.  Not everyone that uses it posts every time they are heading to the mens room.  Actually very few people on my list do.

Whats wrong with that?   :aok

I haven't seen anyone post in the manner that I was portraying in my previous post.   :)

I haven't figured it out yet. :)

It's got a scroll of what other people type (if you "follow" them), sort of the same way facebook shows posts of your friends.

But the typing is limited to 75 or 100 characters, or something like that. I "follow" a few local newspapers, so they type breaking news taglines in there & stuff like that.

Twitter, MySpace, Facebook and other sites like it were created solely to let the rest of us know who the fruits are.

They were probably created by the advertising industry.  Advertisements for people who think they're just talking to other folks.
