Twitter: What are you doing?

Follow Barack Alabama (or whatever his name his) Britney Spears or Stephen Fry around the world, get regular inane updates from Jonathan Ross and Terry Wogan......

There must be more to it than that surely?

My twitter id is GrassInSingers

Maybe between us we can find out what is the point of this thing?

Is Twitter something like Peer-to-Peer, only now it's Twit-to-Twit?

**slimboyfat** · 16-04-2009, 09:14 PM

From what I have gathered so far it seems to be a good thing if you are really into self promotion

Come in Scampy my old pal

**dirtydog** · 16-04-2009, 09:31 PM

^How can they be lost if you found them?

**kingwilly** · 16-04-2009, 10:27 PM

depends on who you follow...

you can follow a group of specialists in your field and get quick answers to a question if need be.

or you could follow american idol and go nuts on that stuff.

Looks like I answered my own question, no chicks, just a dude with a complicated beard

**kingwilly** · 17-04-2009, 11:10 AM

ok, now use the search item

eg: Yellow Shirts.

and you'll get a whole heap of news type feeds, including George of TV fame

**baldrick** · 17-04-2009, 11:11 AM

2 cats with RFID collars which trigger the lock on the cat door and then tweet to the owners as they go in and out etc - I thought he also has a usb cam to snap a pic also but it does not say it on the page
