tweet.


i was a bit curious about twitter-- especially after a friend of a friend tried to sell me on the idea while drinking old style and smoking cigarettes this past weekend in one of chicago's more hip neighborhoods.  apparently twitter is all the rage in wicker park.  but living in a more ethnic section of town, i wasn't aware that everyone who was anyone was on twitter.

so i set up an account.  i don't necessarily suggest you do.  but it may be addicting.  i already connected my phone to twitter, so we will see.

but in case you're bored, check out twitter.com/xjamarkleyx for a constant feed on my activities.......

UPDATE:  ben is on twitter as well, follow him at twitter.com/satellitenoise.

It is my personal opinion that Twitter is the most useless thing to come from our generation since the Furby. And even then, I'm not so sure that the Furby is worse...

will somebody please tell me what the fuck is twitter? is it like facebook or myspace because its all the same and I dont know how many social networking sites our generation needs to be...social.

It's not even social networking. It's basically a site that consists entirely of status updates. And you can update your status from your phone. So worthless...

yeah it might be completely useless, but i thought i'd try it out. and mostly because you can set twitter up to txt you feeds from some of yr favorite websites. i might not update my status constantlly, but i will stay on twitter for the time being because i can get ny times stories texted to my phone......

and i thought myspace was completely useless at first too. then it was the best website invented. and now i think it sucks again.

my opinions of social networking sites varies, but you can make good use of them. i mean that's what we're turned le blogspot into. a public little hangout for our friends.

all i can say is twitter has potential despite its name.

Some fucking cat name Sockington.

And a horse.

And a parrot.

Sigh.
