I don't feel I talk to much at all, and Deans remark is a bit ignorant

Twitter is a great place to network, I've been to a few "tweetups" here in my city. I've been able to get answers as well as answer questions on twitter, and I've also been able to find vBulletin work via twitter.

Twitter is going to be the next big thing, just wondering how many of you are going to go along for the ride.

I've heard of twitter but never bothered to figure out what it is.

I was the same way, well I actually had signed up, but didn't mess with it for months.
I've recently seen how useful it can be, I can track the links that I send out and see that ppl are actually clicking though.
It's a very useful marketing tool if anything else.

Think if you could send a message to everyone that interested in the same type of stuff you are and get instant feedback as well

I've used twitter once & only once... when trying to get some of those Black Friday deals last year in the TigerDirect / "Pink Friday" fund drive (which turned into a complete fiasco but, at times, was entertaining watching the situation get worse & worse).

I don't think I could actually use "tweet", "tweetup", "tweeting" or "twitter" in a conversation with fellow adults while keeping a straight face.

Thanks loco

Just been to the twitter site and saw this...

Quote:
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co?workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?
When i finish work, i go home, turn off my mobile phone and spend some quality time with the kids, the missues and you guys on here. I just can't find the extra time to twit unfortunately
