Am I uncoool? I don't twit, and I think the idea of twitter is ridiculous.

[Ediacara]

I don't want to know that much about every second of peoples' life. No one actually wants to know that much about every second of anyone's life. If you think that people want to know that about you, think again.

1. Never mind. I thought this was about our cats.

:shrug:

[Droopy]

2. I have formally taken you off my list of cool DUers

I bet you didn't even think I had such a list, but I do, and you were on there. Oh, well. Your loss I guess. Now excuse me while I take a leak and clip my fingernails.

3. :-)

4. Word

I guess it's less annoying than people who talk on the phone at the grocery store, but it's still lame. :shrug:

[TrogL]

5. Neither do I. I also refuse to go on facebook.

[av8rdave]

6. I am so un-twittered...

Definitely not cool.

And why would I want to be on there? My life isn't that interesting.

[Drunken Girlfriend]

7. Twitter

I currently don't have a Twitter account,but am curious to check
it out.

Hey,if it's cool enough for Britney Spears(her's was recently hacked),
then why not.

Is it like Facebook?

8. I suspect the service is primarily for the forever-attached-to-the-skull

iPDAphonepodberry crowd for whom being "in touch" with, well, everyone and in every way possible, is indeed the point of such places as Twittie.

I don't use twit, faceoffbook or myspacedlife. The handful of messageboards I belong to are all the "social networking" I need in my life. The rest of my spare time I'm on my Dana and you wouldn't believe how many people are genuinely interested in it, even as they carry about all those other permanently attached gadgets ;)

9. It's 'tweet'

and I just read where two of three people who tweet are repukes. Go figure.

[kentauros]

10. I know it's "tweet" too

but I think "twit" is more appropriate :P

[Ediacara]

11. If you use Twitter, then what you're doing is twitting

I don't care if the proprietors don't like it, but if what you're doing is "tweeting" then your service should be called Tweeter, not Twitter.

12. I just talked about this with some friends today

me and friend #1: twitter is fucking lame
friend #2: twitter is awesome

my team wins.

[HopeHoops]

13. I think the NAME is rediculous

[old mark]

14. I'm old, and have no kids.

I'm not even sure what you all are talking about, but I probably won't like it.

15. It's a "social networking" site

much like Facebook or MySpace. I don't know any details beyond that, other than I think it's a lot like texting people, only online.

[DS1]

16. I can barely bring myself to write a facebook status update

so I typically bring maximum snark

[Midlodemocrat]

19. +1.

Any free time these days is spent here.

[semillama]

17. I thought it was lame

until I found out that Warren Ellis and Jhonen Vasquez and John Hodgman and Wil Wheaton are on twitter. Then I joined just to see what they would post, and it's pretty entertaining.

[azmouse]

18. I feel like I've got better things to do with my time...

like trim my toenails or pick my nose.

I'm the uncoolest person around... and I'm damn proud of it!!

[Shell Beau]

20. I don't myspace or facebook or twitter, but I don't think the idea is

ridiculous. It connects a lot of people who have lost touch and would otherwise not keep in touch.

[MineralMan]

21. Twitter -- The Social Networking Site Named after Its Users.

That is all.

[Lucian]

22. No, you aren't uncool.

Twitter sucks. I had it for my BlackBerry for about a half hour, then I realized how lame it was and got rid of it. It's hard enough coming up with a facebook status.
