Twitter sucks.

Yes thank you Capt. Negative. Some people though actually use it for beneficial purposes.

Re: Forked Thread: Who do you follow on Twitter for NFL News?

Will never waste my time reading someone's twitter. Unless someone on here whines about it and quotes it.

And if you're willing to sift through the millions of idiots posting nonsense to find 20 or 30 people who write beneficial posts, go right ahead. I have better things to do and other ways of getting news.

What the hell are you even talking about? Do you know how it works?

You don't sift through millions of idiots unless you choose to follow millions of idiots. How hard is it to know I like to read what guy X has to say and to search him on Twitter and click follow?

Then again I know how hard Itunes was for you, so I guess I see where the user problem lies.

Twitter is useless IMO.

Just don't need to have half ass information quicker then others, and that is the majority of what you get with twitter

Re: Forked Thread: Who do you follow on Twitter for NFL News?

no one. It's like some people on FB who like to post, I need to fart. I am hungry. I am i a bad mood. Etc.etc. Who cares? To each his/her own I guess.

Yes, I know how Twitter works. I also know that 99.9999% of the population has no need to be posting because they're not entertaining enough or informed enough to be constantly updating the entire known universe with what they are doing/thinking at that exact moment.

Maybe I exaggerated how hard it is to find worthwhile people, but the fact remains that the overwhelming majority of what goes over Twitter is absolute garbage. It's just the Facebook status feature with all the other features cut out.

You think you over exaggerated? Yea just a little...

And I dont disagree 99% of what is out there blows balls, but with my twitter page I know 95% of what is going NFL Draft News wise without having to click on 7-10 different sites. That's how I use it that's how it helps me.

Just like anything you own, if used properly it could work well, if used like a dumbass it does you no good.

I do the exact same thing. I have about 60 different people/newspapers I follow. It's great when someone or a website/newspaper puts out a new article. It's right there no need to go looking for it.

so, you trust people to accurately report what they read/posted on 7-10 other sites in 140 word posts?
