I just don't get Twitter. To me it seems like reverse stalking. You're telling anyone and potentially everyone what you are doing, inviting them into your private life. I can't imagine being that kind of an attention whore.

Agreed.

A lot of business and bloggers use twitter for quick ads, like giveaways and such.

I haven't been using mine for a while so I just deactivated it. One more way for my stalker to find me anyway.

Once I learned that people were using it to "tweet" about the VS debate, I figured it wasn't worth my time to look deeper into it.

Apparently he doesn't actually tweet, he just kinda lurks (like some of these forum members who watch but don't say much)
