Why So Many People Hate Twitter

April 7th, 2009 Posted in Technology

It seems like you can’t listen to a podcast without hearing the word “twitter.” Many people can’t even go through the day with tweeting. I for one like to use twitter, but not as often as others.

But twitter is the new craze. It’s like bell-bottom jeans during the 70s. If you want to be anybody, you’re on twitter. Heck, even my local news station is on twitter. There are, in fact, so many people on twitter that it almost seems like spam heaven. There are companies now that pay people with lots of followers to advertise in their tweets. Twitter is no longer the center for tech enthusiasts or the microblogging center that it was  a year ago. I for one never knew that it would ever get to be this big.

Twitter is an awesome tool. But the main thing is that its growing to fast for its own good. One solution to this would be to join the TWiT Army. It’s basically the same concept, but it is a smaller community and it is easier to get noticed. But for now, I am going to stick to twitter, but who knows what will happen.

About to go Tweet this post,

P.S. Sorry that I haven’t made a post in while. I am going to get back to it and streaming. I have just been pretty busy.
