Like much of the web - there is a lot of meaningless verbiage. One of the down sides of Seth Godin's beloved social networking is that any yahoo (pronounced yay hoo - a hillbilly term I learned in the Ozarks) can post their words be they important, random, or downright stoopid. A source close to me said that 1/3 of all Twitter posts are about FOOD! IE: I'm eating ____ now. Going to eat fish tacos. Still burping the burrito, etc. BUTT - (that's a big butt), I have managed to have a more connected experience on Twitter - and have embraced the possibilities - and have connected with some cool people, got free stuff, and even found out about local meetups I wouldn't have known about - and attended a live meeting of bloggers here in Colorado. Maybe I'm a Chatty Kathy (the first talking doll from the 60's) - and maybe it is because I live alone and my dog is the strong silent type - but I enjoy using Twitter and have found it valuable.

I totally get your point – and there is no shortage of people who look at Twitter and feel the same way.

Like much of the web – there is a lot of meaningless verbiage. One of the down sides of Seth Godin’s beloved social networking is that any yahoo (pronounced yay hoo – a hillbilly term I learned in the Ozarks) can post their words be they important, random, or downright stoopid.

A source close to me said that 1/3 of all Twitter posts are about FOOD!

IE: I’m eating ____ now. Going to eat fish tacos. Still burping the burrito, etc.

BUTT – (that’s a big butt), I have managed to have a more connected experience on Twitter – and have embraced the possibilities – and have connected with some cool people, got free stuff, and even found out about local meetups I wouldn’t have known about – and attended a live meeting of bloggers here in Colorado.

Maybe I’m a Chatty Kathy (the first talking doll from the 60′s) – and maybe it is because I live alone and my dog is the strong silent type – but I enjoy using Twitter and have found it valuable.

That’s me!
