    Twitter. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing. Say it again. Hooarrh.

        ...gives me the jitters.

        The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick Visit the Hindi forum here.

          If you use Twitter to send a Tweet, does that make you a Twat?

            That day can't come too soon. If for no other reason than not having to read idiotic headlines with "twitter" in them.

            It looks like a pyramid – they are not generating any profit, have no idea how to change this, but became bigger and bigger thus attracting new investors, spending their cash and became even bigger and so on to the inevitable bitter end or until some miracle happens/not very likely in this case/. Even the Facebook creates some value, keeping you connected with distant friends or family etc. but I fail to see any value in the twiter.

                  Actually, I find it useful to follow news and updates. Mind you, I don't use any social network to "follow" my "real" friends. I just use Twitter, and nothing else, to get news from other developers/companies/whatever interests me. Usually I browse daily tweets on the train.

                  If you truly believe you need to pick a mobile phone that "says something" about your personality, don't bother. You don't have a personality. A mental illness, maybe, but not a personality. [Charlie Brooker] ScrewTurn Wiki, Continuous Localization and My Startup

                  Me too (except for the train part, for me it's while eating breakfast). The new Twitter iPad app is awesome - aggregates tweets based on categories. Great for keeping up with various topics. Cheers, Drwe.
