Ian Poulter is quite entertaining. He tweeted about Westwood setting the alarm to go off on McDowells iPhone during Montys opening ceremony speech. Just crap like that really. Is it life-changing ? No. Just mildly amusing sometimes (although I'm totally bored with Leons meltdown now).

I followed Poulter on the Ryder cup which is the first and only time I have ever really used Twitter. It didn't change my life by knowing it, but I guess it does have it uses.

In regards to Facebook, I always thought that with Facebook you know when your mate has gone for a dump. With Twitter, you get to know when someone famous has curled one out.

It is also quite useful to 'stalk' the celebrities that you have a particular interest in, as often they'll tweet when they are going to be on a certain radio show or TV program which is usefull if you dont watch a lot of TV and wouldn't have known otherwise.

Great to keep up with Albion related news when you can't be bothered with NSC

Completely different from Facebook.

I think like a lot of these things it's been massivley overhyed by a smallish media clique for whom the service that it provides seems very important. TBH i think how you regard it relies on the importance you place on having instant access to the latest trivia.

"Uruguay, Chelsea, Spurs, Brighton. I like Leeds but no Ken Bates, he a snake in the grass."

I like to use twitter, but the only thing I find really annoying about it is the trending topics. It's like all the lower class scum from myspace finally signed up and now I get a bunch of trending topics from dumbshite americans. #omgillneverfallforthatlie #watchingteenmom #wutguyzdotogirlzheartz ugh

The power of the RT has alerted me to this little peach!

Where is the "I get it but don't give a f*** about it" option in your poll?

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

I know what Twitter is. I know how it works. I know why people use it. I have zero interest in it.

is the correct answer

I signed up to twitter for the sole purpose of badgering Kazenga to come back...now he's back at Brighton, ive not looked at it

I prefer facebook as it's visual and I prefer visual media.
AND although I've been half looking at Twitter posts for over a year now I still can't get my head around the format.

@Albumen You are a tool.

I read that as 'This is aimed at Albumen, you are a tool'.

Maybe I am but my head won't stop saying 'at'

 

[Bad Ash]

What I don't really get is retweeting and people who seem retweet 50 times a day. If I wanted to read a persons tweets I'd follow them!

 

[tedebear]

Its a product of a bizarre "look at me" decade....

I've never even visited the site to be honest, woulnd't know what it looked like. I hated facebook at first although have slowly come to appreciate certain parts of it, not all, but twitter is a step too far for me!

This.

Twitter is merely a communications infrastructure. To have no interest in it, is to have no interest in absolutely anything at all.

 

[Driver8]

I don't get it or Facebook. Must admit I have never looked at either and have no interest in doing so.

Facebook - very well featured. Utter wank when it comes to working nearly all the time. Broken quite a few times, i can expect links to not work or chat to break 4/5 times an hour.

Twitter - underfeatured, but doesn't try to do too much and works nearly all the time

 

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

I don't even get facebook so twitter has got no chance here sorry.
NSC is my guilty pleasure. Are there enough minutes in the day to follow NSC, Facebook and Twitter?
