DO YOU TWITTER? I TWITTER, BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

TWITTER LINK

Okay, so I can TWEET now.  What the heck does that mean?  I have met some new people and I haven't a clue who they are or what they really do.  So, I have to ask myself, "What is the purpose of Twitter?"  And if you are asking me I will tell you the same answer, "I don't know."  This is either the most brilliant form of communication (why I don't know) or the stupidest form of communication (which I am leaning towards).  Bear in mind that I don't use my cell phone, or a blackberry or iphone either, so maybe their are some advantages I have not yet discovered.  I do find it amazing that in a world full of so many varieties of instant communication (cell phone, phone, text, my space, email, intercom, twitter, facebook) that we still aren't really communicating with each other any better than before.  I think it's worse actually.  I think everyone one should select one form of communication and become a tribe member of it and isolate themselves from the other tribes.  I wonder which tribe would end up being the happiest.  I am guessing one that actually hand writes meaningful letters to one another will be the most fulfilled.    Tweet me right and I will Tweet you right.  WoooooHoooo!
