I don't have a cell phone, facebook or twitter. If I fall any more behind the times I may just disappear from society completely, only emerging from the dank hollow out in the woods that I call my home to buy toilet paper and to try and score some weed.

Yep, no mobile phone here either.

Facebook, don't get me started on that.

Twitter seems to take the cake though.

Although I don't use Twitter, I can definitely see its merits. Like any tool, it can be used constructively or not. I guess for many people it's just another way feed their narcissistic / voyeuristic tendencies. But that doesn't mean it's stupid.

What I don't understand is why people always hate on the next new thing. Everything will eventually change, and we live in a technologically driven society - it's only natural that there will be all kinds of novel gadgets and gizmos being introduced that affect us in little ways.

Plus, if you don't like something, there's always the advice that no one likes to follow: ignore it.

I hate being "connected", I might knock the internet on the head at some point (too much good information atm).

I'm the only person I know without a mobile phone, it's a great feeling... once I leave the house nobody can contact me.

Sampsa Jasli is the only one in this thread who knows what he's talking about.  Twitter will change the world. 

It is not about what's for breakfast.  If you still think the appeal of Twitter is to broadcast the minutae of your life, then of course you'll think it's dumb. 

If somebody only talks about breakfast, then you unfollow them and you follow someone else who's talking about something interesting or useful. 

Everybody is constantly dropping the people with nothing to say, and following innovators and up-and-comers.  Everybody is always expanding and refining the network of people they follow, collecting the attention of people with all sorts of skills and insights, and dumping people with nothing to contribute.

It's like a giant bubble sort for finding the best and freshest minds in any field, on any topic.  A search engine where actual human beings -- not just algorithms -- answer your questions and send resources to you.

If your network is big enough, you can have doctors answering your health questions, music fans discovering your music, expert mechanics telling you how not to get ripped off, David Lynch reading your essays, deal-hunters sending you the best prices, anything.  You can find out in real time where the action is in your city, or make connects in a place you're traveling to.  Making contact with people is easy.

Twitter is providing a real-time mechanism that accelerates the natural selection of ideas in any realm: business, science, culture, art.  This is a side effect nobody predicted, and it's a very big deal. 

In five years all of you will be doing this in some form. Most people are still at the "Fuck twitter I'm sick of hearing that word" phase, but that's fine.  No need for everyone to jump on the bandwagon at once.  Mark my words though, it will change communication forever.  Dig up this post in five years.


--------------------
Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

You make a very good point, but I've never had a myspace or facebook. Never really seen the need for one :shrug:

twitter was the first social connection / communication website that i actually heard from the media before friends and peers.
thought that was odd.

whiskey you make a valid argument. yet the fundamentals of your opinion are false for twitter is not used to exchange insight and opinion, dropping those who dont contribute and following those with innovative ideals.
rather it is a social hierarchy established by the media and hollywood, as well as narcissistic indulgence.

but twitter does have the potential to change the world in the way you described, yet it will be unsuccessful until the public stops carrying that some celebrity went yacht shopping that day. and every individual stops sharing the fact that they ate a good slice of pizza.

I didn't see much use for Twitter until this uprising in Iran started happening.  For these protesters, it's their only lifeline to the outside world.  In a situation that's been shamefully under-reported in MSM, Twitter has seen its finest hour by giving a voice to those Iran whose other means of communication are being shut down.

There are two ways to get to the top of an oak tree: start climbing or sit on an acorn.

Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?
