So if you haven't jumped on the Tweetrain just yet, allow me to elaborate.
Twitter is like instant blogging. You don't have to do shit. It takes the fun out of writing and the effort out of posting blogs. However, some celebrities have found ways to still make me laugh with great one-liners. My favorites? I would have to say Stephen Colbert and Tina Fey. Dry humor just gets me.
"Tweeting" [the thing that you do, when you use Twitter] is definitely not for everyone. Its great for celebrities because everyone listens to them and cares so much about what they have to say. But if you're just some guy named Jeramiah living somewhere in Luxembourg, who the hell cares what you're saying? Riddle me that.
So for all you people who can't decide whether you should twitter or not, I've answered some Frequently Asked Questions to help you decide for yourself.
What the hell is twitter?
- Twitter is a free social networking/messaging utility for staying connected in real-time
Okay... Well, what the hell does that mean?
- It's like Facebook on Pot. All mellowed down and chill. Forget all the poking, excessive wall posting, videos, photos, and outrageous groups. All you gotta do is put up one picture of yourself, and update your status whenever you want.
Does tweeting make me a bird?
- No, birds chirp. If you tweet; that means you use twitter and enjoy updating your status every time you take a massive dump in a public bathroom and feel the need to tell everyone you know.
Are there any benefits to using Twitter?
-Sure. All jokes aside, it really is a great way to reach a large audience. If you're a political maniac or enjoy expressing your opinion about anything, you should be tweeting right now instead of vandalizing school property with your Controversial Graffiti Art.
Twitter still sounds like it's for losers, What else you got?
-Well, you can link your phone to twitter, making it easier for you to communicate to all of your "followers" [friends on twitter] with one simple status update or "tweet."
What if I like writing on other people's walls?
- Hmmm. Well you can still direct message people which is like your Facebook Inbox. Only you can see those particular messages. You can also direct your tweet to someone specific by typing "@type-your-friend's-username-here" followed by your status update. Anyone can see that message, but it is more personalized in the sense that you're prompting your friend to respond to your update. Meaning you can still have a ghetto facebook wall-to-wall conversation.
Can Twitter get annoying?
- Of course it can... If you choose to follow people who update their shit 25 times a day. My advice: just don't follow them.
How do I sign up?
- So you wanna sign up huh. I knew I could convince you. Twitter me that!
Well it's really easy. Just click the link below to register. It's really quick.
