I still don't see the point of it. I'm on FB and that gets annoying. Twitter appears to be just a "fast forward" version of FB. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm old, maybe I don't care enough to be bombared by worthless information. FB and my car forums (T4R.ORG and 8thcivic) are all the social media I'll be involved with. I spend TONS more time on T4R.ORG than I do on anything else. :cool:

So, no, I don't tweet.

lol,, just as I dont see the "point" of this fourm, with youtube having all the info we have without, all the going off topic lol, and yes, Im old also.

I think Twitter is cool, much better than FB atleast Im not constantly bombarded with "suggested pages" and game requests :ybrick:
 
I tweet and try and keep it light hearted. You can follow me @DJPWade if you want to hear something funny or amusing every day?
 
I don't but my wife does. I have a hard time accepting the word "following" for most of the people I know. :whistle: Plus anything good seems to make the news these days anyway. It seems like half of our headlines are the result of social media.
 
but the news doesn't make me laugh like accounts like this:

no you don't need to be signed up to read the feed.

I think twitter is great if you have a schedule that allows you small moments of free time through out the day. If you have a few long moments of free time, then you have time to log into a forum or something. Of course you can actually follow the forum feed on twitter as well:

Wait!! This forum is not twitter??!! Damn, all this time, i thought that i had 82,849 followers...so, i am not popular as i think i am?? :moping:



No, i don't use Twitter nor Facebook. Be careful, you guys need to double check every post on those social networks...it may come back to bite you in the butt! I have heard enough of people getting fired over these things...and thus, the reason why i don't touch these things.

I don't use facebook but I am on Linkedin for professional contacts. I find twitter is, fascinating almost. I don't "tweet" very much and my "followers are mostly my children's ages. I follow those same people in addition to a few news feeds and sports.
Twitter to me is like a mass text message. Wanna get a pickup basketball game at 3:00 today? My son will have 20 guys show up with one tweet. You want to find your lost dog? Yep. Recently twitter was responsible for finding a missing child because, if deemed important enough, the tweet will spread exponentially in a very few minutes. It will go from a single person to 200K people in just a few minutes.
Tweeting is like anything else...use some sense. If you don't keep up you will be left behind. How many use instagram?

thats a very good explanation
 
So, I whored myself out this morning... joined twitter just to enter a contest for a nice red dot sight. I guess I'm a twit now, er twat, er tweeter, er something...

Agreed. I'm a 24 year old and it's exhausting for me to just hear other people talk about Facebook (which I do use), Twitter and now Instagram. How do you even keep up with all that?

FB is enough for me, that and car/truck forums as well.

A friend and I joked the other day that if I joined Twitter, this would likely be me (minus the crashing part probably):
