So far, I have not really jumped on board with Twitter. I have followed its growth for some time now, but have never been compelled to actually make an account or to follow others. For me, it is just a little much. I already have a Facebook account where people can update their status every two seconds if they choose. This in itself can be very annoying to me. I like to keep in touch with the people I care about, but it seems like there is a point where people start to post things just because they have nothing better to do.
I am trying to think of a time when "tweeting" would be helpful, and I suppose if you were in a situation where you could not check your phone for text messaging, but could have access to a computer, a tool like Twitter could be helpful. Maybe someone is trying to organize a project or an event and you could check on the status by seeing his/her tweets. So far, I have not found that telling the world about my burnt toast is worth the time it takes to get on my computer, log on to Twitter, type in "I burnt my toast this morning," and then post. I will however keep an open mind because I know that it is a huge thing for a lot of people.
