Would crossing SY.com w/ Twitter cheapen them both?

Tell me, what's the point of Twitter? Serious question, as I have no idea what the site is about. Isn't it just the status updates thing from myspace and facebook.. on another site?

That was my impression too, Adam. I signed up and that seemed like the only option. I don't remember what mine even is.

i see it as a digital media exercise in language editing. but it may be a rip-off from other sites, too.
honestly, i was getting a little bored with my internet use and thought adding sy.com-type, uh, type wld make twitter more relevant. not sure if this makes sense. |

I just deleted my whole post because it sounded like something an 80 year old ass man would write, if he was able to log onto the internet. I mentioned C-SPAN if that is any clue.

its twitting. It would be Tweeter if you were tweeting, but no, it is suitably named. Twit-ter.
the ultimate in trivializing everything...as evidence of its worth, realize ashton kucher is its leading voice. now isn't that sad. |

twitter is fun at first but unless you have unlimited texts on yr phone plan and unlimited time to check all the incoming textx it is a pain in the ass to follow more than 3-4 people/bands/friends.
(especially if yuo follow someone who tweets as often as some losers update facebook status and shit) sending tweets is fun I guess, but it becomes so rote. there are only so many things you can say in 140 chaarcters that anyone wants to actually read.

the whole nail? was it 'fucked up?'
i think the public enemy board listed board members who also tweet. that's a nice idea. it's a way to learn about people. |

I don't tweet. I don't see what's so great about this site...
However, I did set up a tumblr today and I must say I'm quite enjoying it. As a whole it feels more complete and interesting than twitter. It feels more as a portfolio or something: http://syrfox.tumblr.com/ |
