What's with Twitter?

I personally don't know what the rave about Twitter is all about. I agree that it's mostly for famous people. Even then, I don't care they're doing all the time. I'm fine with Facebook and myLot. I used to use Myspace and Xanga a long time ago. =)

I do have a twitter account but I haven't opened it for quite sometime now. I don't know what the rave is all about. It's really for famous people only and maybe if you want to really stalk a particular person. Facebook is a lot better in my opinion 'cause you really get to connect with friends, schoolmates, classmates and family. I find twitter a little bit useless. It's not that exciting to use. I think it's pretty boring to use twitter.

I lost interest pretty quickly. But I know at least one person who is pretty successfully using it to promote an online business.

i didnt find any special in twitter but just to post shout out as i can do that in here or in facebook i really dont know why it become so hit now a days whoever behind that site. theres nothing more you can do there but just to post your shout out and add people there to read whatever you want to say, better facebook than twitter as in facebook i can chat, post shout out, play games and etc.

i have twitter acount and seldom use it... i would even forget my password and keeps resetting it... but recently i finaly know why i have twitter, its for me to tweet my referal links.. lol

I use social networking as a business reputation tool, and am responsible for maintaining our company's presence on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIN - of all of these I find Twitter the least useful and interactive of the lot, and it's only really there for completeness' sake. I tend to just cross post relevant stuff I am putting out to the other networks. We've got more followers on Twitter than on Facebook actually, but they never interact meaningfully, and I find it difficult to build any kind of brand relationship there either. I use it as a desk research tool to explore trends, but so far as putting our own stuff out there, I find it a bit useless. Facebook I also use extensively personally, but I could never imagine using Twitter personally. The noise-to-interest ratio is toooo high...
