Ah what the hell, it's not interesting and it's only new but in this day and age technology....
I think this is correct @Kblinds.

@profanityswan (not me) is very good.

he managed to have a good rant about moshiemonsters via twitter this am.

@kinesisuk is very good as well (and cotic and brant and matt from 18bikes) - it's always interesting to see some of the technical discussions and 'behind the scenes' stuff. Good for them in terms of brand promotion too, as well.

Binners don't knock it. I hear d-list celebs post photos of what they're eating and people like Danny Mac post links to adverts for their sponsors gear over and over and over. What's not to like?

Then if you get bored you can read what some 'celeb' asks another 'celeb' in a secret spy type satisfying way (even though said celebs have each others mobile numbers and could have texted without blowing smoke up their own arses)

Have I missed anything?

EDIT - I did, I forgot lazy journos

[i]Have I missed anything?[/i]

you do know you only have to read what people you're interested in have to say, not [i]everything anyone says[/i] don't you?

billysugger - if it wasn't for Twitter, the Daily Mail would have almost zero 'news' items to 'report'

Damn you Twitter! Feeding the indiscriminately ravenous DM Trolls!

I think it's actually a fact that you technically don't exist these days unless you can be followed on Twitter.

Yay ive got 2 followers already [well i blocked 1] but they both seem to be xxx related. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ
Do you block them or ignore them?
Presume its just computer generated spam. Is there a filter/setting to stop this?
Thanks

I probably would've known Elf had been banned had I been on twitter.

He's like that T1000 though...

I think the last one was 4 years ago, wasn't it? About a week after the first one. I can't think of anything more spirit-crushingly tedious for anyone, than being constantly informed as to what I'm up too.

Edit: Thanks for reminding me what my log on is Harry. I'd forgotten. ๐Ÿ˜€

*runs off to Twitter to see whats going on with Fred*

Oh, and Philly for 'other' reasons.

Cav is good and Rob Warner's quite amusing. I mostly use it to follow stuff like news announcements (Govt. Depts relevant to my work and the like) to keep me up to speed with new stuff for work. Never directly tweet myself really, only if replying to someone else.

@shitmydadsays is also quite amusing...and insightful! Not very prolific though.

EDIT - Brant is interesting to follow, just to get a look at the industry from the inside and new stuff that On-One/Titus are doing.

I finally joined Twitter a couple of months back, mainly to follow industry stuff in information security (lots of researchers post up stuff). I'll occasionally tweet myself, but that's a rare thing.

I really should start doing something with it, but to be honest, it's a better tool for getting off the press news than most other things.

@jamesey_b if anyone wants to follow me.

By the way, Robert Peston (@Peston) is a decent person to follow though.

And Chinese cuisine.

Thanks.

I'm [url= https://twitter.com/#!/miketually ]@miketually[/url] on there too. Mainly just moaning about #marking, informing you of my #hometime and photos of bread and chickens.

I hear d-list celebs post photos of what they're eating

Because we're all equal on Twitter, we all get to be D-list celebrities!

I have just joined too.

Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup.

Seems to have inherited our hamsters ๐Ÿ™„
