I don’t understand twitter and I certainly don’t do twitter. When it comes to widespread e-stuff I dallied a bit on yahoo answers and what I post here.

I keep my RL footprint as small as possible.

People who advertise their lives on the interwebz are nuts.

I understand politicians using these technologies — their public footprints are huge anyway. But to tell people “I am at Burger King” is just self-absorption.

You can be on it just to follow Sarah. Period.

I don't “do” Twitter either. I joined to help the Iranian people. I only “post” there when I want to get some news out, much the same as at FR, except I post on the UT here sometimes.

I follow Jim Robinson, Jeff Head, Sarah Palin, and two twitterers from Iran.
I have some followers, but I have no idea who they are, nor do I care.
Twitter doesn't have to be about ego.
:-)
