Default I'd be so good at Twitter

Not that I really know anything about it.

But I'm always thinking of some random thing that I want to say, not sufficiently significant to start a thread, just a thought...

And my pitiful brain wouldn't have to try to keep up with and remember what everybody else was talking about, because it would be all about ME

I wouldn't have to make sense, I wouldn't have to stay on task (Oh look, a chicken!), and I wouldn't be driving Bob crazy saying everything that I think of.

Plus I'm a Twit.

Sounds perfect to me.

My English neighbor told me twit was an affectionate term for someone you cared about despite anything else (dingbat seems affectionate too.)I've been called a twit.

I saw an interview with Robin Williams ~ He calls it one step away from stalking . I have a Twitter account, but was bored with it the first day so haven't looked at it since. My attention span just isn't long enough, I guess..

I've never even investigated Twitter to see what it's all about.

I've been called a Twit, too. I've been called alot of things but Twit is one that I can post here!

I'm beginning to understand how my parents felt when cell phones became so popular. They had no interest in learning about them. I guess I'm the same way about Twitter. I just don't think everyone needs (or cares) to know what I'm doing every second of the day.

I leave my random thoughts on Facebook as status updates. I'm not sure I could do Twitter. My brain can only handle so much social networking and I'm used to Facebook.

My life is so boring that I wouldn't even want to read about it on Twitter.

Same here gmi! It would go something like this:

I drank a cup off coffee.....went to the bathroom.
I drank a glass of water and did a crossword puzzle.....went to the bathroom.

Oh, I wouldn't tweet what I was DOING, I'd tweet what I was THINKING. My life is boring also, but sometimes I at least THINK of something interesting. Well, to me anyway.

facebook, myspace, NT, MSW, eBay store, amazon store, MY store website, my recipe site, blogspot for MS, blogspot for business, DH2B's new site... cell phone, text messaging, picture messaging, pressing one for english and zero for another automated operator....

I spend most of my day attached to some form of electronic device that enables me to "communicate" with everyone without ever TALKING to anyone!

Remember the days where you used to get together with friends to catch up on life? Those days when you had to actually leave the house and have face to face contact?

Never understood twitter one day I will probably be a part of that one too.
