Title: How many of RO is on Twitter?
Post by Heart Of Stone on Oct 6^th, 2012 at 10:15am

I have no interest in it, but I was wondering what's it for? I hear of these people going on there every 5 minutes & telling people what their doing, even celebrities, is it just another facebook? if so why start another social media.

I have an acct... but like Joey's use of toilet paper... haven't twatted in some time! It can be linked to FB, so I think it's cool... if you thought we were assholes on here, Twitter is like the asshole magnet of the world!

I have an account. But don't tweet myself. I just check it out if their is some sort of breaking sports news I want to follow. Or look for Springsteen tour date rumors. Besides,whenever a celebrity or athlete says something stupid. It's usually reported elsewhere on the nets anyway. :-/

Twitter - dumbing down the world 120 characters at a time.

Absolutely hate it, the self-importance around it and the fact that its now become a shortcut to news stories for lazy journalists. Can safely say I'll never open an account.

I think it is totally absurd how the media treats Twitter...like it is a person or a reliable source...

"...According to Twiiter...blah blah blah..." You hear it with the presidential race...in sports...it only perpetuates these twits to post more garbage

@boykinfloyd. I really like twitter. I follow the stones they tweet vids and news. I mostly tweet cynical and negative comments mostly when watching football. I love @likegirlsdailey I follow friends and news stuff mostly. It fun as long as you don't take it to serious

I hate it as well....yet when my son was in British Columbia fighting fires a year ago we kept up with events with it as the only source of real info.....so yes it can be useful....just take the so called celeb factor and sports geeks off
