Title: Twitter/Tweets
Post by: Snoopy on August 17, 2009, 10:42:20 AM
Can anyone explain what the F*** this is all about?
I have had a peek (just to see what the THW was going on about) and it appears meaningless or perhaps I mean pointless.
Anyway I seek enlightenment.

Any offers?

I've had a look too totally baffled by the whole thing, however following comments recently made about me by my teenage daughters I may well set a site along the same lines for the over 40s, watch this space for....Witter.


Sort of in-depth, shallow discussions on Complan, Zimmer frames, incontinence pads and what we went up stairs for, you may follow one and other but only if you are lost and have forgotten your name.  Sentences should be long and rambling giving the world and his brother an insight into you thoughts and life.  They need not be a true indication of anything pertaining to your good selves as none of us will be any the wiser!

Further suggestions please...

FFS ~ I hadn't even considered Facebook mainly because too many corporations seem to have got involved in buying and selling it and that makes me very wary that (i) "They" will be looking to make money out of it (Tho' ITV don't seem to have made any but then they can't make money out of anything these days) and (ii) The more times it changes hands the more people have access to the bits the "members" don't get to see.

Besides ~ there are people out there that I don't really want to ever meet again and I'm willing to bet they are all on it.

I can't see how "They" can make much out of what I put on there. Even the e-mail address I use is one of my spares.

As to people you don't want to meet ~ you're not forced to be anybody's friend.

"Why would i want to check a voicemail on my cell phone? People want to talk to me, call again. If i want to talk to you, I'll answer."

"I didn't live to be 73 years old so I could eat kale. Don't fix me your breakfast and pretend you're fixing mine."
