Do you like Twitter? Do you use Twitter?
I hear a lot about Twitter on TV, cuz it's an easy way for CNN, E! and Entertainment Tonight to get info on celebs. But I really don't use it that much, maybe just to see what the celebs are doing.
Here's the web traffic for it: http://siteanalytics.compete.com/twitter.com+facebook.com/
MUCH lower than Facebook!

I don't like it. I just stick with Facebook because it has everything. It is interesting to read celebrity Twitters though.

I think it's kind of useless. MySpace and Facebook have basically everything and maybe more than Twitter. And I think it's annoying when people say "Follow me on Twitter"

I use twitter to follow sxephil, Obama, the us government and a friend of mine. Don't use it myself. It's interesting to get live updates about things though

I think its kinda dumb. Facebook has much more options and diversity. The only times I see twitter are celebrities and I don't give a rat's ass about them.

Strangley enough, I do have a Twitter account, but barely use it anymore. It's like the only thing you can do is say what you're doing (in less than 140 characters which is annoying as hell if you go over) and see other people's tweets and follow them, which gains you followers in the process. I find it boring and would like to get Facebook if my mother and father would not so Communistic about it :\

I've never been on the Twitter website, nor do I intend to.

I have a Twitter account, but I could live without it. Facebook is much better though

I'm on it just to follow celebrities. It is quite stupid though.

You also have to realize that a lot of people update and receive updates via sms which means there won't be actual traffic to the site unless they need to add someone.

It's a waste of internet space. No customization, no...gahhhh, it drives me bananas! You can't do ANYTHING. You sit, "Sup guys...I'm...sitting here." and do that over and over and OVER. It's so boring. I cannot understand why it's gotten so popular. Is boring and bland "in" now?

I KNOW thank you for saying that, myspace is pretty much boring. But I use it because my friends seem to write more stuff about themselves (on their 'about me') than facebook and some of them don't have a facebook.

Even though I don't post updates on there, Twitter has started to grow on me.

twitter is for soccer moms who want to get into the internet connection thing, but are too lazy or simple-minded to wrap there minds around more complete and useful sites.
people who like to use twitter:
-Politicians: please speak your opinions in places where people that can do things about it can hear you. twitter is not one of those places
-Celebrities: the only people who should be allowed twitters imo. Nobody cares that you just bought a chalupa unless you're Tina Fey
Talk Show Hosts: @the view ladies, that's what your show is for. WHY DO YOU NEED A TWITTER
normal people: no body cares that you just went potty. nobody cares that you got the newest issue of entertainment in the mail today. NOBODY CARES
and that's why I'm thankful to live where i live. My town is so "ahead" that none of us even started a twitter. That, or the people that did were too embarrassed to tell people about it.

hahaha I agree.
I suppose business people could use a twitter. But really I think it's for celebs and things like E! to go "OMG, Adam Lambert ate at Taco Bell! NEWS STORY????"

I think twitter is lame really.
Facebook feels so open and no privacy. But it's good for updates.
I think Myspace is better out of those three for actually talking.

God, this is getting annoying. Every time you turn on the radio, TV, anything media wise, it's "Oh, and we just got a Twitter account! Check us at out http://twitter.com/omgcelebritiesareeatingtacos945 !!!"

I'm the odd man out. I love Twitter. I use it in conjunction with Facebook and I'm perfectly socially-networked. It's made my MySpace totally obsolete.
Twitter is just so easy. I just update it from my phone, and I get to see my favorite celebs.

Almost exactly the same, I use a mixture of Twitter and Facebook.
