Dave C Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 For those that use twitter, post your twitter ID so we can all follow your daily musings and interests. Never thought I would have any interest in using it, but I do find it fun and at times very informative. http://www.twitter.com/wetwork If you don't know what twitter is all about, check this out: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starhawk Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 We tried to get everyone here on Pownce several months ago, but it just didnt work out Twitter has far fewer features, but it's just so much better to use and easier for people to jump right in.

PHiL Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Why doesn't everyone just create a private Myspace page.. I know Cameron and JFO have them.. So much more features.. I know its not the cool thing but create one:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel P Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Don't know anything about Myspace other than it gets alot of bad press. Who else here has a myspace page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyN Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Twitter is a lot better as you can do quick messages from anywhere (Iphone/Touch is great for this), and also allows you to see all the messages of people you follow in one place.

Starhawk Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 I've been using Myspace for several years, but it's just not fun anymore. I kind of got tired of the clunky interface, all the HTML, Spam, and it seems that alot of my friends have strayed to Facebook. My Twitter updates also post to my Facebook, which is cool. Also, if more features made it better, Pownce would be stomping all over Twitter. I thought Pownce was going to be huge because of stuff like that, but I started to see the Twitter appeal after using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyN Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Glad we got a bunch of people on Twitter now. Its what i hoped would happen on Pownce, but didn't. Easier to catch up on the go with friends, then it is browing forums on the Iphone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel P Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 I had heard about twitter when listening to major nelson's podcast but never looked into it. Now Pownce. Any better/worse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyN Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Pownce is more of a file sharing version of twitter. For normal posting people seemed to just stick with Twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFo Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 J_Fo is my Twitter account for those of you interested. I think I've done one tweet and that's it. I don't know. Perhaps if I add more people to follow, I'd find it interesting, but right now I'm having a hard time seeing what the point of it is. I mean, I'm bored by the minutia of my daily life. So, why would I expect other people find it interesting. I suppose I should give the service a shot and see if I grow to like it more. I've been using Myspace for several years, but it's just not fun anymore. I kind of got tired of the clunky interface, all the HTML, Spam, and it seems that alot of my friends have strayed to Facebook. My Twitter updates also post to my Facebook, which is cool. I agree with you on MySpace. I find it appalling that they actually require average users to know and use HTML in order to alter their profiles. Sure, you could alter your profile with one of the many editors out there, but I haven't found a really good one yet that's easy to use and has enough functionality to do what I want. FaceBook is a little bit better, but I don't like how information is organized there. I always have a hard time figuring out what's going on and what people are doing. Maybe I'm just not cut out for the whole social networking thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyN Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 I'd find it interesting, but right now I'm having a hard time seeing what the point of it is Truthfully I did as well until I started using it the last week. For me it's like a RSS feed of all my friends, plus people Internet personalities I follow on the net. Instead of going to dozens of sites, it's all in one place. Yeah there is the normal everyday stuff, but if you follow a larger group you get news quick, thoughts of games, shows, reviews, etc..

Twitter gets you the inside scoop with little snipits of news. As an example: Wil Weaton's brief thought's on JJ Abrams Wired Star Trek article: https://twitter.com/wilw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
