I think that's kind of useful.<br><br>Like a Facebook status update, it's also a nice excuse to do little one-liner jokes, poems, koans etc. 160-character flash fiction :)thoapslhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08009813783965090824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986284896496751222.post-39060588061110671442009-08-26T14:30:29.980+10:002009-08-26T14:30:29.980+10:00@Carla: yeah, the strangest thing about Twitter is...@Carla: yeah, the strangest thing about Twitter is the huge number of complete strangers who start following you! For no apparent reason! Bizarre. Interesting, though. I think there's a lot of twitter spam-people who follow you to try and suck money, but there's also a lot of people who follow you just because they can.thoapslhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08009813783965090824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986284896496751222.post-21166849466668578682009-08-26T07:45:24.749+10:002009-08-26T07:45:24.749+10:00hm I havn't joined yet.. and am avoiding it fo...hm I havn't joined yet.. and am avoiding it for the moment. facebook I joined, but I don't use it all that much. maybe i'm reluctant because 'everyone' seems to be twittering.. and i have a blog, so why do I need a mini-blog? and to be honest, I think there's something to retaining what privacy and isolation we have left (not much). but maybe i'm not being fair?mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09839309306405707098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986284896496751222.post-84129095047188430372009-08-21T10:45:10.141+10:002009-08-21T10:45:10.141+10:00In my eyes, twitter is NOT cool, it's way off....In my eyes, twitter is NOT cool, it's way off. However it does intrigue me. I may just think it is no way near 'cool', because i do not understand and really have no use for it. <br>But i do have to admit, I joined too, but months ago when i had only just heard of it, thinking i was missing out on something. I haven't used it since. Then I got an email saying someone is 'following' me?! someone i didn't know. I freaked. As i said i haven't used it since, i cant even remember my passwords...<br>I tend to gage how 'cool' these kind of things are by my much younger much cooler, hipper and more happening 20 year-old sister. She doesn't like Twitter, but is still loving facebook.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13852221884064482413noreply@blogger.com
