    Does anyone agree that twitter is f'n stupid?

    First-generation social networking sites were incredible in their ideas but programmed horribly (myspace/etc)

    Facebook on the other hand is programmed immactulately and still serves a good purpose.

    Twitter is just stupid.

    Twitter definitely has a place to fit into the micro-blogging community.

    Twitter is a great place if you follow the right people and not those simply interested in tweeting their crap at you.

    No, but Facebook censors any and all adult content while allowing all manner of obnoxious spam to happen.

    Twitter has its uses just like many other "social networking/bookmarking" websites but i prefer Facebook.

    Have never liked Twitter. Not sure what's so wrong with Myspace. Serves more of a purpose than Facebook does (music).

    I really don't get twitter. Do you really care that somebody across the world is buying eggs for breakfast? Or somebody is heading to the latest movie?

    yea, it is all hype no substance, why so great about "i just woke up, it' a sunny day here and i'm tired " blah blah blah. Unless it was my best friend, i couldn't care.

    There are benefits to Twitter. It's a case of finding out what those benefits are. It might appear stupid to some but opportunistic to others.

    Many people use Twitter for Marketing because of this "Hype".

    The thing about Twitter is that as soon as something breaking news happens it will be found on Twitter before on Google, Yahoo, MSN or other search engines.

    Twitter users are fast to report. :)
