Do any of you use twitter?

memphis88 · 04-23-2013 02:56 PM

Why?

yakko · 04-23-2013 03:00 PM

yes

ksigtigerdood · 04-23-2013 03:13 PM

Yep. Can't say I really post much, but it's the absolute best way to get news

uofmwalton · 04-23-2013 04:14 PM

#no?

Bill83 · 04-23-2013 04:39 PM

eff no!

bsp34 · 04-23-2013 04:57 PM

yes...love it

Funny that people are so anti twitter. As has been mentioned, it's the best way to get news. You don't have to tweet and you control who you follow and who follows you.

Yes @cbhstiger

Here's all I have to say about Twitter: Last Monday I was on a plane to Philly and on Twitter. I knew about the Boston Marathon bombings before any national news media reported it. At 37k feet.

I read sometimes, never post. I don't like twitter, but it is a good way to keep up with what's going on.

How about the Internet? Do any of you use it?

(What the original post would have sounded like 15 years ago?

Yes. A lot. Some say I spam my followers' timelines....I am in that boat but won't change because I am interesting...actually I'm not and I wouldn't follow myself if I had the option.

I really enjoyed your tweets last week about the Boston situation! Don't stop, ever, please! lol

Twitter is a great way to get information - usually before any other source (which may or may not be reliable). It's also a great way to directly communicate with someone you would normally not be able to.

I found it useful in getting my air conditioner and car serviced faster because I posted about them on twitter. I'm not saying it's the be-all end-all, but it is useful.

Ha. Thanks, B. I got into class on Friday morning and some of my students who follow me were annoyed that I had spammed their timeline. I told them they were free to unfollow me at any moment but they think that if they follow me I will give them a higher grade.

Thanks folks for your responses. Do you guys care if tweets are truthful/honest or not?

Do you mean twitter is quicker but may not be as reliable? Or that the "other source" may not be reliable?
