Still persevering with Twitter? You're not alone. Come here to complain, commiserate, praise, or otherwise discuss our favorite and most hated site. Don't tweet here, though; use your Twitter stream for that. Random messages and spam—links or not—are subject to random deletion.

This room, by the way, is entirely unaffiliated with Twitter.com.
CHIROMANCY Fashion Extra Long Felted Scarf http://www.etsy.com/view_li... Idea comes from my 2004 collection Paradox for Mittelmoda The Fashion Award 2004, Italy. You can wear it by many ways as shown on pictures. I embroidered by hands with silk thread lines of the hand in Palmistry. It looks just fashionably and swanky!
if you were to redirect your DOMAIN to your twitter or friendfeed account which one would you go for? (1. domain is single 2.hosting not required, use google sites)
yeah i am experimenting about the response by posting it to multiple groups//.but it is also true that i was buying a domain just for using it for my twitter account, but now it seems if that goes though i would have to buy one for friendfeed too

"In 2008, the median age for Facebook was 26. Today, it's 33, a good seven years older. An interesting turn of events for a site once exclusive to college students. So where are students hanging out now? As it turns out, Gen Y likes Twitter...Well, maybe not, but they are using it"

"The belief that Twitter is more than just another communications platform continues to spread, kind of like swine flu for media geeks. And like the flu, it’s plunging victims into feverish hallucinations: “Twitter saved the Iranian protestors!” they cry, neglecting the fact that it, uh, didn’t. “Twitter made the Kogi Korean BBQ Taco Truck a sensation!” Yay, a fast-food truck makes money. “Twitter kept us updated about Balloon Boy in real time!”"

Fair enough, we'll have to agree to disagree. Obviously the individual points within the piece - eg. auto-follow is bad - I have no problem with, but to throw out Twitter entirely is both, frankly, misguided and intentionally dramatic to get click-throughs. As I said: entertaining, but of little professional value.

Twitter is platform with terrible security, terrible uptime, overhyped beyond belief by bloggers and "social media experts". Completely stupid in my opinion.

An opinion which makes sense, considering you posted the piece. As I said, we'll agree to disagree.

Maxamad: what is the basis for those claims? what is the overall yearly uptime for twitter website or api, and how does this truly compare to other messaging platforms? what is wrong with its security? there is an HTTPS login https://twitter.com/ and OAuth is pretty reliable if implemented properly

"One of the notable things about the way Twitter has run its business up to now is that it has never got into the app business. New screenshots suggest that might be changing."

First Twitter list semi complete... decided on somethings 'safe' (ie: no politics intended or implied) http://twitter.com/hollyra... decided to include music bloggers (thinking festivals get their own list) but now that I look at it maybe the musical bloggers are polluting the musicians
