I'm avoiding twitter like the plague. No one wants to hear details of my life, and I certainly don't want blow by blow accounts of other people's days.

And, I'd probably get addicted like I did initially with facebook :)

I use it, mainly for work reasons to keep up to date with the design/development crowd, friends I know or work/ed with and pornstars.

Some people think its for that and most do post daily babble, but depends on how you use it, occasionally I'll post that Im listening to something or doing something to share ideas or music, but its also useful for company's to market stuff or post useful things faster than on a blog or on their website, like software apps I use or tutorial sites its quicker to ping something out that way than a full blown post.

Some company's use it to post competitions that otherwise wouldnt be marketed any other way.

I agree its a bit of a time waster and useless in some cases, since its a micro-blogging type tool, but its useful once you've been using it for a while.

Since I've joined I've met quite a few people on there that do similar things to me or interests, surprising how small Perth is when you follow one person who's met another person in real life etc.

Depending on your use and expectations it can be crap, to me its a bit of both sometimes its crap and useless other times useful to keep up to date with my interests.

I have Facebook too. I only joined though a month or two ago, I held off doing that, but since I like to see how social media works and websites work for research into future jobs etc its always handy to keep up to date with progression, though Facebook is a bloated goat, I rarely use that, and it tends to crap out when navigating so nothing becomes clickable.

Twitter is great, I've met a whole bunch of other B-Movie bloggers. It really helps you connect with people who have similar interests. People post their blogfeeds to twitter and its a great way to keep everything in one place.

Far better than Facebook IMO.

well, I did it. Don't know what I was so bothered about, it actually seems a lot groovier than Facebook, and less annoying/intrusive.


edit - and I can feel the addiction coming on...

edit 2 - if I could work out names, and feel like less of a stalker for following people.

Yeah, just chuck in a link either directly to the forum or a page or something. Anywhere really. Within seconds you'll have a bunch of guests on the forum.

You seemed to have actually roped in some real people though, cause they're actually poking around the forum. That's cheating, but in a good way.
