Likewise, you not only update what you are doing, but it is a way for an interaction of what others are doing/thinking.
For example, there are a group of guys doing a Mock Fantasy Football Draft, so I have been commenting on it and interacting with them as they pick.
Likewise, it is something you can easily update as you go. Some of those thoughts you have that are fleeting as time goes on can be documented. Whether people want to know about me or not, I don't care, I am having fun with it :D

why not just buy yourself a digital audio recorder? They're not that expensive and serve the same purpose without the attention whoring?

Digital Audio Recorders can't do that.

Not really. And not in an organized fashion either. I got TweetDeck yesterday, and it really is a nice interface to separate everything. I enjoy it.

It is all about location, or programs using. You can use facebook to tweet, Tweetdeck, among other things.

I'm on it. I usually post on it at work because it's the only social networking site I can use while I'm there. I mainly use it post a thought or keep in touch with friends.

I've been kind of anti-twitter for a while but it might be misplaced. I have no real reason for disliking it, I just think it's kinda dumb and unnecessary. But hey, if you enjoy it, who cares what other people think?
And there are much hotter pics of Cassadee out there but no one will ever top that which is Hayley Williams. I would do unspeakable things to hit that just one time. Unthinkable things.
edit: I will admit that it was kind of cool during the election but I haven't really been back since. I do have a twitter but I don't think I've ever used it to send out a message, just to receive and read them. :)

I don't have Twitter, Facebook, MySpace or any of that stuff.
Don't fight it, give in and enjoy cheaper car insurance.

I have a MySpace for close friends only, tried out Facebook and I wasn't impressed. I have no desire to try out Twitter personally.

I have facebook but only have like 50 some friends. I don't see the need to become friends with every single person I went to high school with regardless if I've ever talked to them or not. I don't know enough people who would care about what I post to get a twitter.

No MySpace, no facebook, no twitter. I don't see the point.
Besides I'd lose my membership as an old man if I used any of them. Not worth the risk.

No Twitter here, but I have a Myspace and Facebook. I check each a few times a day and update my status every other day or so, but I don't do much stuff or have many friends on them.

I actually signed up for a Twitter today that I'll use to follow the Patriots this season, as well as some notable news from around the NFL and relating to the draft. I'll be throwing in analysis too, but probably not as much as on here due to posting restrictions, etc.

Not a fan of Twitter, of course that could be because every media outlet now pimps it out, "ZOMG! Check out ourz Twitterz!" But still, if I ever get one, I just want to continually update it as "None of your damn business."
