Default Twitter

Who else has one? I just made it today, to distract me from having a VERY bad day. It seems kinda funky so far, simpler than I expected. It doesn't really have many features, maybe they'll pop up later I guess.

PM me if you want my account btw. =]

I don't have one. There is just something about twittering your life away...

I find it kinda pointless for a normal person. But for Celebrities or Bands, it's a genius idea..

I find it as relevant for a 'normal person' as a celebrity. Normal people can be interesting too :P

I have one, but I've made all of two posts and then never used it again...

It's like facebook status updates minus the rest of facebook :\

I prefer to think of it as blogging for lazy people.

I use mine a lot, but it's a bit of a personal reddit - a lot of my tweets are links to youtube videos or funny stuff I've seen elsewhere.

I just dont "get" it, what's the point of it? who cares if I'm stood at my till at work wishing I didn't have work and could go outside and enjoy the sun like everyone else! lol. see, it's just like a broken pencil, pointless! though if someone feels they could explain it to me, I am curious to know what the sudden obsession is with it!
