An easier way to spam people.

Least that's what some people on my Livejournal friends list seem to take it as. Rolling Eyes

I've been spammed by G4 on twitter so many times that it has to be a glitch or something.

Indeed. I've removed people off my f-list that do nothing but post twitter updates anymore. If I want partial conversational abbreviated sentences I'd... well I just don't.

Was this squat-twitter feed made before or after Zac made an official ANN twitter?

Another twitter ANN news feeder is @Anime_NN. Or were you just looking for usernames?

twitter has to be the most pointless service in the world. unless it's for business, you'd really have to have no life to be posting on this thing every 10 minutes.

Twitter fan here. Yeah, I can understand why some people don't like Twitter but for me it's Twitter trying to garner conversation between people who may or may not know one another rather than allowing everyone to block themselves off from everyone else that sets it apart (this sentence is way too long). Either way I'm glad ANN will have an official Twitter account.

Twitter is the No. 1 most efficient way to leak corporate secrets inadvertently.

Twitter is irc for people who never discovered irc. Only with auto-logging to the web.
