The Twitter Thread
 

@hardcoreware <- That's for my site, all tweets will be related to PC Hardware, Video Games, and Windows Mobile

@skinnypupp is my personal twitter account

Wow you people need to get in touch with the times it seems :lol

I'm on twitter. My friends give me heck cuz I'm not on FB but on Twitter.

Twitter is too much for me lol

I once twitted about someone farting on transit once, then about half-an-hour later someone named "farted" started following me. hahahaha

For what it's worth, I'm kardboard. hahaha

whats so hot about twitter? isn't it kind of like facebook mobile where it updates an individual about the poster?

they were talking about this on The Beat when I was driving home... but I still fail to see what's so special about it compared to facebook/xanga

let's see what this hype is about

Twitter isn't for everyone, but it's a good way to get information about people in a stream-lined matter, it basically gets rid of all the extra shit that most sites would have, and just provides the information you want. Its also handy for networking, for whatever purpose you see fit, but for me it would be for Business/Web Developers. Here's a simple example of how I would network..

(Me) KeeganT: Looking for web developer to design simple site
(someone whos following me) Jonbob: @KeeganT is looking for web developers for a small web project ("Retweet" or Repost)
(All of jonbobs friends see this message)
Jeffjack (One of jonbobs friends): @Lushloo(One of Jeffjacks friends) Yo man, @KeeganT is looking for a web developer, give him a shout for some work.

Also, if you were following Kevin Rose (Digg) or Mark ZUzkekekbuerg (Facebook) any useful bits of information/articles/videos they may post you could see. Which is very useful for me as it's business related. But it could be the same for cars, horses, or anything else.

It's like sending a regular text message. If you have a data plan and a smartphone, using a mobile app is much better though.

I primarily use for my all-in-one news source. I follow the Globe and Mail, Vancouver Courier, CNN, CKNW, the Georgia Straight. I also follow people/things that I'm interested in; climbing, boing boing, some local celebs, some musicians. I know I could RSS all of this stuff but I never really got into the RSS things. None of my friends are on Twitter which is nice cause I don't understand having 'conversations' on Twitter.

I don't know if you'd have discussions, but more just comment, or provide thoughts, on a specific topic. I love it more every day :)

So umm I just joined twitter.. kinda boring zZz.

What twitter app do you guys use for your phone? I'm currently using tweetie on my iPhone.

If anyone knows any good sources that are photography or graphic design related. Let me know!

Twitter mobile site or fring, both on S60.

forgive my ignorance but from a quick peek at what its about, it seems twitter focusses on exactly what alot of people i know are actually quitting facebook for?

instantly knowing trivial bits of information about what someone is doing, about people i really dont care to know trivial bits of information about?

It takes abit of getting used to. I just found someone to do a custom 3ftx2ft Marvel style painting on Twitter, useful to me.

that's about what I got from it. kinda like that iphone application that uses your GPS location and what is known to be at that location/what you tell it you're doing to inform all your friends where you are and what you're doing at all times.

I still don't know the big hype about twitter, but anyways....
