Twitter
Is it just me, or does anyone else just not get it?
Been having a look on it tonight, and to be honest, I can't see the attraction, I mean is it just status updates?
I'm feeling old.....

Re: Twitter
To "get" twitter you have to use it - follow people you are interested in and know / like. it's a very personal medium, so if you just look at it it doesn't make much sense, but if you follow, say, 100 people you want to hear from then it's interesting....
It's a 2 way street - 1 way is dull - follow, post interesting stuff, engage. It's good if you can be bothered....

Mindy, there is a write up on my website, An Idiot's Guide to Twitter, tells you step by step how to use Twitter and set up your account. Once it clicks with you, you will love it.

Can't help feeling like a bit of a stalker to be honest. I joined today and I've got 3 people following me already ....

Re: Twitter
There is an awful lot of drivel on Twitter, but the trick is to only follow others with a brain who post more than 'I am drinking tea' or other such dullness. Too many teenagers and hosuewives with nothing of any relevance to say, but theycan be avoided. If you follow people locally it can be a good source of info on numerous subjects.

Re: Twitter
Agree, I unfollowed some recently who were just doing my head in. Mainly young Emirati women moaning about how tough life is

Re: Twitter
I binned most of the youngsters a while back as they have no idea about real life & I have zero interest in reading about how their mum makes them help out, as if it's of earth-shattering importance. I am now pretty ruthless about unfollowing.
