Saintandy666 Posted 5 July, 2009 Posted 5 July, 2009 Twitter is hyped up and overated. Just like second life, relatively few people use it compared to what the media makes it out to be.
Mr Nice Posted 5 July, 2009 Author Posted 5 July, 2009 Just been having a look really and been spammed within 20 mins !
saint_stevo Posted 5 July, 2009 Posted 5 July, 2009 i quite like it, pretty basic, don't use it much but it's alright
Baj Posted 5 July, 2009 Posted 5 July, 2009 Twitter is phenomenal, not only for its social reach but for its instant access to peoples lives. The real power lays in the ability to see world events in real time. Twitter will, in the end, be surpassed by something even better, but the aspect of 'what i am doing right now' is here to stay.

You do get a lot of XXX spam and make a million crap
Mr Nice Posted 6 July, 2009 Author Posted 6 July, 2009 baj, do you know if spam is a big problem on twitter ?
mdearlove Posted 6 July, 2009 Posted 6 July, 2009 I get 3 or 4 people following me daily who turn out to be spam - I just block them. You also get businesses who are constantly searching for use of a particular word - I posted an update about Golf and within a few mins had 2 people following me who have businesses related to golf. Spam on Twitter doesn't really affect your use of the site - you don't get tonnes of updates from these people and Twitter are very quick to remove any spammers.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 8 July, 2009 Posted 8 July, 2009 I got an account but haven't used it, I don't really get it, I only got one person following me and I haven't the foggiest who he is. Can somebody please try to 'sell it' to me?
