Blah.

Twitter? What is this? It's been a year and I still don't really understand you. Nor do my friends, so it seems that nobody really wants to use you. But I do! It's been a year, take me back and teach me please. I need to try and wean myself off facebook, thanks.

Of course, addressing a website as if it were an old boyfriend or girlfriend and expecting an answer to my question (or merely a solution to my long term problem) would be ridiculous. I bet the guy who runs twitter (probably guys these days in the helpdesk centre) would take one look at that, smirk, and ignore my e-mail. My heart-felt plea to use their website, one final time. And I don't even know really why I want to use it. Maybe I am ready for micro-blogging, and ready to cut down on the Facebook rubbish? A haiku a day looks arty and sophisticated on twitter, whereas it looks too pretentious and stuck-up on facebook, and your friends of friends probably won't "get it" either. Besides, all of the big names are on twitter such as Stephen Fry (he can write, I'm sure of it) and other big names that also possess a significantly greater average number of brain cells than the average celebrity, including people who write newspaper articles and books. Yes, newspaper articles and books! Twitter seems to be the place to be to go and get all that.

However, it's been abandoned for the best part of a year. There's no point in these sorts of things if your friends aren't on them, seeing as communication is also part of the game as well. I guess that's why Facebook has remained popular... but I am desperate to start tweeting as well. Now I have a magic phone that has internet, posting shall be much easier...
