Why the hell do we use twitter?

by Bryn Youngblut on June 26, 2008

I’m still using it but I don’t know why, it seems I have to refresh a few times to get away from the huge flying whale so I can post a update then when I do half the time the whale appears again! Stupid whale held up by birds.

OK I mean I GET why but theres a point when it gets to be too much to read like constant updates from hundreds of people…nobody has time to read through them all unless your on like 24/7 constantly checking twitter then I don’t see the point.

Shut up.

Anyone ever dipped a banana in yogurt it is unbefrickinglieveable…try it.

What?

Hey… gotta agree with you here. Even I’ve no clue as to the whole purpose of twitter. I mean who in the right mind would be interested in knowing whether I’m shittin’ in my pants or…

More than that, who the hell has even got the time to sit and watch it all day long? Except maybe for a bunch of half-crazed teenyboppers with nothing better to do.

I just don’t get the concept of the so-called “microblogging”. The only good point about twitter is that it does help in spreading certain news much faster than mainstream media.. like it happened during the Burma hurricane + floods or China earthquake.

But that’s about it.

Almost 3 years later Twitter becomes a major part of creating a brand identity for yourself or your business.

I signed up a few months ago, tweeted a little, then forgot about it…Until today at the CMA Convention in Toronto. Twitter may have well been a big blue bird fluttering in the corner. Check out the conventions hash tag #cma11 for an influential conversation of the days events.

Amazing how fast Twitter became an essential tool in business and marketing. And to think we briefly touch on the subject of social media impact in school. Definitely something colleges and universities need to incorporate into marketing programs.
