Who here uses Twitter?
Umm... yeah, it's a simple question, not much more to explain.
For those who don't know: www.twitter.com You answer: "What are you doing now?"

Um... no. Looks interesting, but while simplification is good, this is way oversimplificated (Wait, is that a real word?).- jeep

Of social networking. "What are you doing?" doesn't answer questions like "Why?" or "With whom?"
If I'm going to find out what my friends are up to, I don't want random factoids. My friends are all interesting people who are completely unlike me, and I like studying them for the sake of figuring out how to become a better person by their standards.
Good social networking will associate a why with the what - it's what makes us understand each other as humans.- Yosarian2

I refuse to use twitter. Twitter is facebook for people too lazy to type. Instagram is even worse. It's twitter for people who can't read!

Eh, I have a twitter, mainly to follow smart people. But even then the medium tends to dumb down everything. I've found only three people that have worthwhile tweets every time: Neil Degrass Tyson, Nate Silver, and a very intelligent friend of mine. I'm sure there are a few more, but they are far, far outweighed by the mountain of useless crap. I basically never tweet myself, because it's stupid.ShowTotal: 17/15/1

I never used to tweet, but I'm getting really sick of the privacy invasion from Facebook. I just deleted my Facebook account, but I might use Twitter to stay in touch with a few people."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

So, I use twitter a lot, way more than Facebook in fact (My facebook wall is moslty automated copies of my tweets)In post 21, Bub Bidderskins wrote:Eh, I have a twitter, mainly to follow smart people.

As Bud, I use it mostly to follow people who I don't know personally, but want to hear updates: developers of games I'm playing, local reporters, city office, a few bands/performance groups who announce their next performances through twitter. It is great for news, but I would never dream of following people for the "social" aspect (which is a misunderstanding many of the 2007 repliers did - can't blame them).
Funny thing, twitter is wildly popular in Japan. My students won't follow my webpage to get lecture materials, but they will follow my twitter account at the drop of a hat.
