Twitter has been classed as one of the next big things, a way of interacting with people all over the World with small comments of 140 characters or less.
Are you addict to this...or do you know someone who is?
I must admit, I have Twitter running on my PC/Laptop/Netbook through Seesmic Desktop, and I have a Twitter/Facebook app running on my Nokia 5800, but I do not use it all the time, I answer tweets now and then but carry on doing whatever I need to do on PC.
My flatmate, however, is totally addicted! She uses Tweetdeck on her PC and she rushes off the see what's coming up as soon as she hears the notification, which is damn annoying when I am trying to show her something....she also barely listens to me when I'm talking to her, and then tells me something I have already said to her!
Anyone else like this or know someone like this?

I know people addicted to it and I find it super stupid. Seriously, why people like that. Is just a newspaper with stupid stuff.
If it would be something important but is just people posting gossips and photos of "Hi, I was here, see me super duper mega hyper happy".
Each X years there is a new website of stuff like this...
Started with MySpace then Hi5, Orkut, facebook, now twitter madness, what will be next? SlakLoops?
People should live life outside of house more... Have more fun with real people.

Hi Dumpertaker. I have a twitter account but I do not tweet that much. I just use it to follow some websites I am interested in so I am aware of the updates. Most of what people post on twitter is pretty inane it is just a bit like someones facebook status. Though there is no denying that Twitter has become an addiction for many.
