Why is everyone tweeting about twitter? What’s the big deal? Where did the idea come from that NEW technology must be GOOD technology? I understand social networking sites and social bookmarking sites, but Twitter seems to be so benign in comparison to it’s big cousins. I can see how using Twitter to feed other social sites can be usefull, but hardly NOBODY is using it for this. I can also see using Twitter as a means to publish the status of a server. In fact, I might even write a script that will post my server’s uptime and load to Twitter. But there hardly seems to be anyone using it for this!
Most of the people who are using Twitter use it for the most ridiculous things. They take a shower and tweet about it…they eat breakfast and tweet about it…they hate monday so they tweet about it. I understand the whole “Web 2.0″ trend, but at some point we have to say Web 2.NO!
