I'm not just arguing, im actually curious because I honestly thought it was designed to just have morons posting rubbish on it.
I don't use Twitter, partly because of the morons and the rubbish. The other part is because I don't even like communicating with people I know so why would I want to communicate with people I don't know? I have read, in more traditional media, about various useful bits of information that are available on Twitter. I'm sick of seeing pictures of Brad & Ange every time I enter a shop but I can't say that magazines are a bad thing because I do enjoy my monthly PC Authority fix.
