There’s been lots of new things on the internet in the last few years and each time I’ve thought ‘That’s a good idea’. Facebook is great for keeping in touch with people, MySpace was good for that in a more fun kind of way and even Bebo served some purpose.
However Twitter isn’t an idea I’ve looked at and thought ‘What a good idea’, actually I’ve thought the opposite, twitter doesn’t really have a massive purpose, it’s like a Facebook status without Facebook.
It is however, for some reason completely beyond me fun and slightly addictive. I have twitter and I twit (should that be ‘I am a’?) and the only reason I’ve found a purpose on it is that it can fit nicely into the side of my blog (see right!). I think I like twitter because it’s quirky, it’s quick to update and with a text service you can twitter from anywhere!
So in conclusion of this pointless blog, I twitter, I don’t think twitter is essentially a ‘good’ idea but for some reason it works!
