Well, I finally came around to set up a Twitter feed. I really don't know what to think of it since I'm usually not into selfdisplay. But I'm willing to give it a try. What about you? Are you twittering, or tweeting or whatever it is called :)? I also welcome anyone who chooses to follow me and will follow in return.
Twitter, do or not do?

"Hmm.. this could get me all philosophical about how we're batteries anyway as long as we are alive and that even the mundanest thing has meaning from a Zen perspective and that after all we are one even if we don't feel it... but it's kinda late and I'm a bit tired ^^""Most mundane".
"SinGulaR said:JUST LEAVE US ALONE! JUST BECAUSE WE'RE DIFFERENT DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN JUST STAND THERE AND JUDGE US!"Hmm.. this could get me all philosophical about how we're batteries anyway as long as we are alive and that even the mundanest thing has meaning from a Zen perspective and that after all we are one even if we don't feel it... but it's kinda late and I'm a bit tired ^^""Most mundane".Anyways, true...we could get philosophical about that...but my point is simple: why the fuck do I wanna read that someone is brushing their teeth? lol Or making a ham sandwich? That's just gonna make ME want a ham sandwich, and what if I'm out of ham and all the stores are closed for some ungodly reason? What then?So see...Twitter is the root of all evil...and vanity...and probably cancer."

You could brush your teeth ;)

Just signed up last week. @MisterMetis Haven't really updated much, but getting TwitterFon today is sure to boost my interest.
Here's mine: http://twitter.com/WarofArt
I just got one a few days back... no ones following me though... and since I live in Canada. I can't receive text messages when people I'm following update their status :(
Oh well...

By the way... if anyone knows how too make that show up as a clickable link on the site, I would really appreciate it if you told me how :P
I'm going to be blunt here. Don't start a Twitter if no one cares about you. People in the industry and other important people (i.e. Shaq) can have Twitters and people care about what they have to say. But if you're just an average guy, you just look desperate. The only thing I can see working if you're talking to a bunch of friends and its just you guys exchanging "tweets". But when you post it on the internet like this and expect people who you don't know to care about you eating a breakfast burrito, then you need to get out more.
I update my twitter as much as possible, but sometimes that's not much.
"I just got one a few days back... no ones following me though... and since I live in Canada. I can't receive text messages when people I'm following update their status :(Just mark the part of text you want to be the link, then click on the little button with the chain icon and enter the url in the little entry field that pops up. The marked text will link to that url then. BTW I follow you now :)

As much as I want to, I don't have enough to say on a regular basis that would really fit in with what Twitter is. That and using the Internet from a cell phone (which is the only instance I'd feel the need to tweet) costs an arm and a leg in Canada.

nobody cares about anyone's Twitter, unless you're somebody important/famous.
i don't care to know about when my homie is in the supermarket and saw something that looks delicious. put your camera/phone away and just shop.

Don't know why this thread was bumped but moral of the story is don't listen to advice from me from 5 years ago. Seriously, what the fuck am I even talking about?
